to be alive?

you know how sometimes you are having a shit awful day, nothing seems to go right, you feel like crap, and you just want it to be over so you can try again tomorrow?
have you ever had something happen that totally changes your perspective on that day?

it happened to me about an hr ago. i'm glad i have developed all these little things i'm paranoid about when i ride. guess what saved my ass today. an inch or 2 further right or checking the mirror a second late would have had a very different result.

as it stands, i came out the best of the 3 vehicles involved.



this is all that happened to me besides a little bump and scuff on the boot.

that's 2 in under a year that i have squeaked out of. whatever benevolent force you believe in is watching out for me or i have built up a lot of karma. (i just wish it would work for my bank acct too  :p )

thanks for the well wishes all, remember that it can happen when you least expect it so to quote a sig line from the other board "asshats are everywhere, keep your peepers peeled."

Why do roaches always die on their back?

That because the survivors flip them over to steal their sneakers and wallets.
