After the Lesson
Oct. 8th, 2005 03:16 pmThe drum lesson was great. As usual, I need to apply what I learn. I plan on doing some of that today.
I decided to drop by Costco to see what they had in the way of Espresso machines. I did not buy one, yet, but I wanted to see what they sold and research how good it is.
Once I pried myself from the parking lot of Costco and it's millions of bulk-buying denizens, I was trying to find the 99 south onramp for Mack road. You have to take a u-turn no matter what, it appears, if you are coming from the costco vantage point. That or you hustle down to Calvine Road. And to do that, you must take a left turn, or half a U-turn. By the time you get to the freeway, you are either relieved yet pissed, or just severly pissed. That parking lot is a seething cesspool of road rage.
To add to the experience of Costco-induced vehicular hostilities, a Yukon took a nice, relaxed left turn into the chicken lane, and was appearing to head straight towards the left turn lane as opposed to merging in front of me. Why did he appear that way? Because mungo in the Yukon wasn't signaling! However, his intent was to change two lanes. Never once did he signal.
Not ideal.
On a recent holiday, someone, likely my brother, gave me a wine decanter. I've never tried to use it. I shall look into that today.
