Rants
Man the Rants seem to be a dime a dozen lately.
1. Police Officers with a pen up their rear. I got busted last night for having my dog off his leash and for being in the public park after 9:00pm. Fortunately he gave me a warning. Not next time though. I told him I'd passed dozens of bike officers over the past 6 months who saw me doing the same thing at the same time and they didn't even stop to say hello.
2. McDonalds who think they're so much better than other McDonalds they dont have to have a dollar menu and can charge me $3.50 for a double cheeseburger and small french fries
I had 2-3 others but they've been resolved, may be resolved, or have become.......whatever.

Can't help with the dog problem, but the other one, just don't go there. Wendy's and BK are much better anyway.
Except for that freakish King Head/Smile in the BK commerials. That is just spooky.

Bad day eh? I was on my way to a job interview yesterday at an office supply store and I got caught in traffic because a gas tanker overturned, spilling gas all over the streets yesterday. The police had the road blocked off, and was detouring traffic through the single lane backroads just to get to the other side of town. Luckily it had just happened, and I got there right on time. All that for them to tell me they pay six bucks an hour with no insurance to repair electronic office equipment, and wire up security alarms. The guy had enough nerve to tell me a college education won't take me anywhere in this town.
Took two hours to make a 20 minute drive going back home. There's a day wasted.
This morning I drive by a packaging/beer store about a mile from my house while taking my bro's kids to school, and there's 15 police cars surrounding the whole store. When I came back that way to go home, they had the place taped off with yellow police tape.
Turns out somebody decided they were going to just walk in the joint and blow two people away, and rob the place. A man and a woman that worked there was gunned down in cold blood. The local news said that police are questioning a "suspected" suspect, but no charges have been filed as of yet.
Great, we have a murderer on the loose, and my college education has no validity in this town.
