I read the papers. I look around. I see things that are either annoying or goofy. I write about them. My sister suggested that I start a blog. (Thanks for liking my stuff, Julia.) So, in no particular order, here are my thoughts.

As my Waze app gave the warning, “Police reported ahead”,
I wondered if any cops who are driving through an area punch the “Report Police” button on their own Waze apps just to discourage people from speeding,
even if the cops aren’t sticking around.

I was watching vehicles speeding along the highway, cutting in and out in those daredevil moves where they cut into a lane in front of somebody, leaving no space, then whip into another lane to tailgate somebody else, before they change lanes again to get in front of another driver, and I thought, “Drivers, those moves just DON’T look cool when you’re driving a minivan.”
In related news:
A few days later I wondered if any of the people complaining about gas prices were considering slowing down in order to increase their mileage.
I’m not betting on it.
