On my way to work...

Today, on my drive into work I saw yet another goofy thing to add to the list. About 30 meters (~100 feet) ahead of me in the right hand lane (I was in the leftmost of 3 lanes) I witnessed an 18 wheeler simply veer of the road straight into a tree. I shit you not! It just went off the road for no apparent reason. I am guessing the driver fell asleep. The tree was about 150mm (about 6 inches) in diameter and guess what...it got creamed. The leaves all shot off the tree in a huge expanding cloud. I have no idea what finally happened as I was past the whole thing before it was over...but I can't imagine it ended well for anyone.

Also, more exciting news today...apparently the EESAYs have decided to start a blog for themselves. I have added their link on the left side...it shall remain there as long as their website remains alive...which I am not so sure will be all that long knowing Andrea (who would rather talk) and JT (who would rather sleep or continue his search for the best Bourbon). If you want a long conversation with JT...just mention that you think Jack Daniels is a good Bourbon...and away you go.

FYI it goes something like this... All Bourbons are whiskey, but not all Whiskey's are Bourbon. To be a Bourbon it has to be made in the US in new charred white oak barrels. To be known as a Kentucky Bourbon, it has to be made and aged for at least one year in Kentucky. Jack Daniels while made similarly to Bourbon is not a Bourbon. It is a Tennessee Whiskey.

I have also added abother link on the left to Micael Yon's website. He is a blogger who was embedded with the Military in Iraq. He posts interesting stuff if you are interested in an objective viewpoint about what is going on with the war...not the jibberish spewed from the liberal media. Go back through the archives for a lot of good posts.
