by the lookout on the way back . . .
i was really pleased with the fact that i did 67 power cleans at 95lbs at monday's WOD - 'the chief' - BUT - still managed to bounce a few off the old chest. owwww! stoopid dora !
we got some fresh snow overnight tuesday, so my group of amazing trailees hit the humber with their dions and headlamps on wednesday night. LOVE this pic . . .
and my poor legs were tired today, but i still managed 90min on the humber. trail is saweet right now.
ahaha - the classic 'shadow' shot . . .
on a serious note, i have been really bothered by the death of sgt. ryan russell - the police officer who was run down by a drunken asshole loser yesterday. and i was even more bothered by a couple of things i heard on the radio today. first a dj (or whatever they call themselves) was commenting and laughing about watching some guy who was so drunk he was walking sideways, get into his car and pull away . . . WATCHING - as in he actually let this guy drive !? what the fuck?! and why is that so funny?!!!!! and then i heard this ad for 'ex-coppers' - who claim if you get caught drunk driving, you could lose your licence, or even go to jail, and not to worry, cuz they can get you off . . . WHAT THE FUCK ! maybe these clowns should go and 'tell their stories' to the family of sgt. russell and see how much it amuses or impresses them . . .i am just sickened by this whole thing.
rest peacefully brave soul
One of those ex-coppers parked next to me at a coffee shop this week and left his car idling while he went inside. In big letters, it said on his car that he could get people off impaired driving charges. I had to restrain myself from yelling at him when he stood beside me in line and I was awfully tempted to put his idling car into gear, then see if he could get himself off any charges that might result. When you've had a family member killed by a drunk driver, it is just obscene to see someone making their living that way.
ReplyDeleteclarity - dude driving snow plow wasn't drunk...but all points made are right on.
ReplyDeletethankyou for the correction anonymous - i guess i shouldn't always believe everything i hear or read - as that was the original assumption.
ReplyDeleteand barb - i know how much this hits home with you. thankyou for the comment.
What you said about the dj reminded me of a morning last week, when like every other morning my radio woke me up for work. The dj's were playing a soundclip of a man beating his nephew as they laughed about it. What a horrible way to start my day.
