Rant of the Day:

What the hell is with stopping 20 cars just to let one person out onto the roadway? Or even worse the guy who sticks his nose out to stop an entire line of traffic. Do you realize cars burn the most fuel while accelarating? Do you enjoy supporting terrorists, wasting the gas, and burning the brakes of 20 vehicles behind you just to let 1 person out who could have pulled out easily AFTER the train of vehicles passed? I don't get it. If I'm trying to make a difficult left or right I just wait my turn.

I'm tempted to go on a tear about jaywalkers being responsible for half the traffic in Newport too, but I'll save that for spring when the tourists return.

My favorite bumper sticker I've seen in Newport so far this year: "I'm not on YOUR vacation"
