I like Friday! There, I said it. Holy crap, did you see the tightrope walker, Philippe Petit, on Late Show last night? The guy was 14 stories high, walked over Broadway, using nothing but a rope and a stick. I was impressed. I watched it from the 14th floor. I honestly think people are nuts. He did it in the rain too! That was something. Good for him.
I was getting soaked walking home last night, and then it hit me. I put a plastic garbage bag in my book bag after the last big storm. Let me tell you, that’s the smartest thing I’ve done in a long time. I was soaked but my bag stayed dry.

It’s another crap day today — rain, fog, very unpleasant. I was walking to the bus stop this morning. I was across the street when the bus pulled up. At that point, you really have to get your butt across the street or you’ll miss the bus. A car drove by and I had a space to walk across the street. I made my move but this Fu**ing van kept coming. Then the guy made a motion for me to stay back while he passed. The pedestrian has the right of way! He passed and I yelled, “THANK YOU!” He yelled back, “You’re welcome.” Without even thinking about it, I flipped him the bird, to the back of his van. I was pissed! What an asshole!
Bob: More animal than man
I have the right of way, it’s raining, the bus is at the stop but this guy couldn’t stop? People suck. I’m glad that it ended after I gave him the finger — The last time I got in a fight, I blacked out. When I came to, they were taking the guy away on a stretcher. Crazy world.OK, that’s it for me today. Have a great weekend! God Bless America.
