A long day today, with a house full of people. My grandson's 3rd b-day party. But that ain't what I'm bit chin' about.

So the guests are all gone, and Ms Horse and I decide to go have dinner out; since we're both tired and neither one of us wants to cook anything. But we're hungry.

Had not been outside of the house all day long. As we pull into the parking lot of our chosen destination, I head straight for the first open parking space. And nearly get t-boned by some jackass driving faster in the lot than the speed limit on the road. Asshat wearing a John Deer hat. . . I could've bitch slapped him so hard his ancestors would have felt it.  :rant:

Then, of course, on the way home after dinner we hit the infamous "Mexican Standoff" 4-way stop. Nobody there except me and a blue hair in a Buick. That fucker was there 5 minutes before I arrived. I am convinced of it. (In any case, he was there first and on the right of me.). So I wait for this asshole. And I wait some more. . . I finally flashed my brights at this idiot, and he begins to move into his left hand turn, crossing right in front of me in his Regal.

I could have taken a dump, wiped, washed, and walked back to my truck before he ever got through that turn! And to beat it all, the blue haired moron was wearing a pair of yellow enhancement glasses in broad fucking daylight.  :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant:

I have been running across more than enough of those kind of drivers the last few days.  One guy had something, no clue what it was, on top of his car which draped across his windshield, I would have thought it was a thin board if it had stuck straight out instead of bending over the top and down his windshield, anyway he was driving in the turn lane on Columbus headed straight for me, I was turning left and there was a line of cars so I had to wait, and he gave me a dirty look like I was in the wrong.

The Troll


                      :flower3: On a Beautiful Sunday Afternoon :flower3:

  Coming home Sunday afternoon from the lake just South of Perkinville Indiana on highway 13.  A brand new Jeep pulled out in front of us, at the last possible moment, from Strawtown Road.  My wife locked down my big Super Duty three quarter ton truck and she took out a brand new Jeep.   :o :o :o

  Just before we got to the intersection a white car followed by the jeep came roaring up to the stop sign, my wife said, I hope he's got good brakes and took her foot of the gas.  The white car stopped briefly and came across in front of us.  The Jeep came up and stopped and then in the last moment pulled directly in front of us.    :yes: :spooked:  Then slow motion set  in.  The Jeep came out and my wife braked as hard as she could.  The big truck hit  the Jeep in the rear tire turning the Jeep 90 degrees,  turning the rear tire under the jeep.  We all got out of out  vehicles and no one was hurt.  My big truck had the front bumper shoved up against the tire, the hood, both fenders bent.  Just looking there was no damage to the heavy duty frame, but this is going to cost a bunch.  :cry: The Jeep was damaged in the side rear and the body was caved in.  Just another Sunday afternoon fender bender with no one hurt .  :yes: :biggrin:

  What  wouldn't suprise me is the insurance company won't try to low ball me and total the truck out.  This truck was in perfect condition but it is 14 years old.  Now this might piss off the old Troll big time and might lawyer up, cause my back is killing me.    :yes:  But my big truck, my big baby is hurt.  :cry: :cry:  :cry:

  But my wife did a good job driving and handling the accident.  :love: :kiss:  :bouquet:

I always remember my dad telling me that he could replace a car I totaled out but he couldn't replace me so as long as no one was hurt that is all that matters. I got behind a lady one day and she was on her cell phone, drinking coffee, smoking a cigarette and trying to apply her make up. I went around her real quick as she was all over the road. I may drink coffee while driving and sometimes I will be on my cell but I don't smoke or put on make up while driving. That is just stupidity taking place.

My worst traffic-related incident happened in a parking lot near my home.

I was in a hurry, but needed to stop and pick up something, so pulled into the local shopping center parking lot and headed for an empty space. But, just as I was pulling up to it, a pick-up truck came from the side and pulled in ahead of me.  A big man got out and we made eye contact. Then I backed up and found another empty spot, pulled in, got out and headed for the store, and there stood that guy, with another man, glaring at me. I pretended I didn't see him, went inside, made my purchase, walked out, and there he stood.  Obviously waiting for me, because he walked up to me. I walked on, and so did he, so I stopped, looked up at him and asked him what his problem was. His reply was, "You made a face at me."  I was stunned, and realized I was dealing with a dangerous person, so kept walking towards my car. The other man with him never said a word. I finally got to my car, got in, and drove away. Didn't head toward my home. I was trying to remember where the closest police station was when I made a turn and he didn't follow me.

That is scary. I had a lady one time on a totally different subject try to tell me I was abusing my child as I popped his behind when he threw a temper tantrum. I proceeded to tell her that Ky. Revised Statues 630.000 said I could discipline my child just not abuse him and that I had the police on speed dial due to my job. About that time a police officer showed up that knew me and asked what the problem was, I said I am beating my child according to this lady. He told the lady that she might need to brush up on the law before advising me about it. Lol

This is very tragic. It's a Christian  camp. How can something like this happen to good Christian people? Especially an innocent child. Of course we can't question that. We're not supposed to. Were the storms wicked? Couldn't they have been stopped with divine intervention? Why didn't any of the prayers work? Why are they still praying? Why isn't anyone blaming God?

Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

Rolling the eyes is the same as saying "I've got nothing so I'll act bored".

It's okay, really. You don't have any answers just like no one else has any answers. Conveniently your doctrine states that you can't question something like this because you're not supposed to know what the higher purpose is and just have faith there is one.

Fuck that.

I guess it's all well and good unless it's your tree, your head and your lesson. :rolleyes:
