damn what is wrong with people

What is with the stupid lately? A couple of days ago I left my office and went down to the max station like usual...and see that MY train is stopped at the platform that is one station back, with a supervisor vehicle parked in front of it. Turns out it hit a car that was going across the tracks when it shouldn't have.....meaning that the person driving was an idiot. The only two reasons people get hit by max are 1. they are NOT paying attention or 2. they are trying to BEAT the train like an idiot. If people would stop doing these two things NO ONE would ever get hit by max. There really is no excuse for it.

So we get past that and I'm rolling out of Sunset Transit on the bus when I see some skateboard kid riding down the middle of the lane, on the road coming out of the transit center, on the wrong side of the road. Yet he acted surprised when a car came around the corner and almost hit him head on. What did you expect?

Then today the max just breaks down on the way to work..but luckily didn't end up making me late.

Tonight I have grange business to take care of (I'm a member of the Leedy Grange for the Cedar Mill area of town)....mainly putting up a photo exhibit in anticipation of tomorrow's fund raising breakfast.
