I drove by a car accident the other day. It was pretty bad with one car in the middle of an intersection all smashed up, and a truck with what appeared to be cattle supplies in it. I’m guessing someone ran a red light and then took off after they hit someone. The police/ambulance hadn’t arrived yet but some people were stopping to help (most had to though as it blocked a lot of lanes). I didn’t see anyone in the smashed up car. I only got a glimpse though since as I went by in the right hand lane the left and turning lane cars blocked my view as I approached.

Should I have pulled over and walked back to see if I could help? What is my obligation? I feel bad even though I’m not sure there was anything I could do. Remember I didn’t see the accident, so there was no reason to stay for a police report. Is there anything, besides calling 911, I could/should have done? (Even though I am sure 911 had already been notified a dozen times or so).

I had the ol’ snip snip, and it wasn’t too bad mind you. I am still sitting around taking it easy, but the pain is next to nothing. Whatever drugs the good Doctor prescribed me, well…  I like ‘em! They numb me pretty good, and don’t make me drowsy at all. In fact, I find myself quite antsy from all the sitting around. I have used the time to get caught up on a lot of the programming recorded on my DVR.

I am currently getting up to speed on the following shows:

• House
• Ghost Hunters
• Mythbusters
• Dirty Jobs
• Friday Night Lights

I also have a few movies recorded that I need to watch. I can’t quite remember what those are though.

That’s all I have to say for now, this computer chair is makin the ol’ sack hurt a little bit, and it’s time for me to take another pain pill.

Until next time, folks.

WTF?!?! I’m sitting here minding my own business. I take a brief sip of water and instead of drinking it I breathed it in. The ensuing events can only be described as absolutely horrific.

Not wanting to spew water and saliva all over my monitor and keyboard, I “wisely” stifled the initial cough only to discover my mistake too late. That initial cough would surely have freed me from the inevitable catastrophe that was to follow. I started coughing uncontrollably, and then the wretching started, followed by more uncontrollable coughing…deep coughing, like into your small intestine coughing.

As I realized that I was passed the point of no return, I turned away from the computer. I could only think of the pizza I had eaten, and how it closely resembled a teen acne treatment gone bad. At that point, the pizza I had for dinner made a round trip from my stomach into my mouth and back…delightful. The best part is that not all of it made it back down. I had a decision to make and not a lot of time to make it…spit the chunks on the floor or swallow them back down after collecting them one at a time with my tongue. I chose the latter. Not even Chef Boyardee can make a pizza that tastes good twice…I’m here to testify.
