Cheers to the driver of Ontario BUDHADOG; I've seen him 5 days in the past 2 weeks, never once driving and texting. Unlike 3 of the other 36 drivers I observed this morning (sadly, my "best" ratio yet). That driver and I pass each other a number of times each morning over the space of about two kilometers. Funny how a distinctive late model BMW in red with a personalized license plate gets you noticed. Also funny that a car and a bike make the same over such distances.

And cheers to my 'date' (potential hire) who canceled tonight, letting me get home before my kids were in bed - the first time this week.

Satire is tragedy plus time. You give it enough time, the public, the reviewers will allow you to satirize it. Which is rather ridiculous, when you think about it.
