Appearantly today is national grump day...so um...I guess I hope everyone is grumpy.
I did my civic duty today and actually got out and voted. It was a totally gorgeous day for a walk, like 20 degrees, which is weird for this time of year in Calgary.
So I've decided that people should have to take intelligence and psych tests in order to get their driver's licences (and to become a parent for that matter). What prompted this decision? Yesterday I watched as some moron turned left (on a solid green light, with traffic going straight through the intersection). Ok so he was in the wrong, fine but one guy who was going straight through sped up blaring his horn all the way. Uh, seriously buddy are you in such a hurry that you have to show everyone how much of an idiot you are. Yeah, he had the right of way but is that worth getting into a serious accident? He had just started from a full stop and could of just waited the 2 seconds for the other idiot driver to complete his left turn...but I guess he had to prove how in the right he was and just kept accelerating. People, slow down, it's not worth your life!
