Who called the cops cows? -- Coming down this Guatemala street


[click any picture for large size]

Do I see a cow here?




Yes, several of them!



There they go. I wonder where to?






This little old lady (a lol) was fully in charge.

Nebraska Football First!

[Do F 11 and "Back" button to return to normal]

That's my prediction. Here are Harry Husker and Adi, just ready to root for Nebraska in good ol' Nebraska Football! Go here to find out the Harry Husker history.

My day is full today. I have a lot of work to do in finishing up my Sunday school lesson I'm supposed to teach tomorrow.

I hope to get enough done so I can listen to the Nebraska game via streaming audio at six tonight, probably from Radio KFAB (link), Omaha, Nebraska. A lot of times I will listen on Penquin Internet Radio (link), they have it coming from KLAV (Los Vegas) and their own audio link.

Mrs. Jim has flown the coupe this weekend to play at Calgary, Alberta, Canada (link). There she will do some more Mother/Daughter bonding as Karen is there on a business trip.

My bachelor days will end Tuesday evening. She has plenty of chores to keep my busy. Maybe more on that later.

Road Rage II stuff.

It doesn't last very long, but this lady's license plate (L.O.L.) sure wasn't funny at the moment.

In no time I caught up with her, I was coming back from taking Mrs. Jim to the airport and helping Mema with a few things.

I was in a hurry, this lady wasn't. The speed limit on our Farm to Market Road 1097 is 55, most go at least 60. She was going 43 when I caught up with her. As you can see, there isn't any passing for the next five miles!

First she smoothed her hair and did more lipstick. I was tailgating so I could watch her pull down her vanity mirror. Then she had to call her husband to check in. She almost went off the road dialing, that's what she was doing in this picture.


Wouldn't you know it, finally we got to the lake bridge where I could pass and she upped her speed to 68. Her husband must have said hurry, he was hungry and it was almost dinner time!

I was fuming and fussing all the way but you would be proud of me. No cuss words! A few other choice ones though!

Road Rage

.
After following these guys in formation like this for several blocks, where do you think the dummy in the left lane went?

That green garbage truck made a right turn, the other two trucks let him in to do it. Traffic had been backed up for blocks behind this mess.

The driver of the car following him found out a few blocks later that he had gotten off the freeway four miles too soon.


Wasn't the sky pretty that day. I just now noticed that.

.

Note: This is NOT Houston traffic. I don't want us to get a bad name for drivers like this. In fact, this didn't even happen in Texas. It did happen on my shift though.
