The Left Lane is for PASSING

That's why it's also called the FAST LANE.

It ceases to amaze me at how many people just drive where ever they want without any regard or awareness of the other drivers sharing the road with 'em. My daily drive along the 101 and into Malibu Cyn. makes me wanna pull each and every one of my hairs out one-at-a-time... and I have a lot of freakin' hair.

I've decided that the majority of drivers found their licenses as prizes in Cracker Jacks boxes because most of 'em have completely lost the skill of looking in their rearview mirrors. People despise tailgaters, but I hate people who cruise in the passing lane or those who refuse to use turnouts. Time and time again I find myself behind some douche bag going through the canyon with the death grip on their wheel crawling along as if every turn might throw 'em off the side and send 'em rolling to their doom.

Interestingly enough, someone actually had the time on their hands to put a web page together about this very subject.

It all comes down to milliseconds and gridlock...

Aquarian to the Core

I've always been a bit of a non-conformist... apparently it's in my stars or something, so whenever a fad comes into style, I'm usually the last to follow it (if at all). The most recent fashion craze is this so-called "hipster" generation... It seems everybody is doing, but I just don't get it...?

Why are people such freakin' sheep? I've never understood why masses of people mimic one another so that they all look alike. Personally, I like being different and that's not to say that I need to wear avant garde clothing or make viral videos or wear an asymmetrical hairstyle to do so. I just go through life being me. I like what I like, I hate what I hate and it really has nothing to do with what the status quo is doing at the moment.

The problem with this method is that the status quo (within all industries) controls what the mainstream public is presented with and since I refuse to conform, I am virtually ignored... I know, woe is me... Not to worry, that can of worms will be delved into soon enough!

So, basically dickheads get all the luck. I still don't wanna be a dickhead!

Opening Pandora's Box

I know I'm setting myself up for receiving grief, but I'm hoping the benefits will far outweigh the means. My intention is to vent. You may like what I have to say, you may think I'm totally wacko... In reality, that's all ok, 'cuz at least I got you thinking! Comments are welcomed; however, being that this is MY blog, if I don't like what you have to say, don't be surprised if I simply delete your remarks. No, this is not a democracy. It's MY blog and I'll do as I wish.

My words of wisdom will come shortly. 'Til then I'll leave with this...
