Well, my driveway is... Just keep an eye out for the blue GLH Turbo that
utilizes the "hit-the-ground-running" merging technique.
At least I don't have a dog that you need worry about.
Last week while entering a sand/gravel covered intersection in the country,
I caught something unkosher out of the corner of my eye (you know that
disgusting sensation when great, as-of-yet unidentified, evil is about to
intimately acquaint itself with you-- kind of like knowing that that darkening
shadow around you just cannot possibly be anything even remotely good, because
it probably has something to do with a Boeing 747 behaving, gravitationally
speaking, much like a brick). Negotiating my way into this intersection that
somehow reminded me of Daytona beach (sans H2O, sun, & babes) I manage to get a
glance at my impending destiny. Lucifer's own DOG. Hell's secret blend
of canine-- Doberman and Rottweiler (it moved with the grace of a Doberman,
yet had the hulk and jowels of the Rottweiler-- a creature with a definite
*wrong* end to be at). The picture in my mirrors was fuzzy, but there was no
mistaking the fangs and saliva trail.
To shorten a verbose tale, my burly gaurdian-angels once again performed above
and beyond the call of duty, carried the bike through the sand-trap (I honestlyhave no idea how), and left the minion of Beelzebub with a face that
suspiciously resembles a Metzler tread. No blood, though-- Rats.
Moral: I'm not really sure, but more and more I believe that bikers ought
to be allowed to carry handguns.
