I sat through a combined 2 hours of traffic today. That's twice my normal commute. In the morning, some crazy person decided the 85N overpass would be a good idea to threaten to jump from. I don't mean to be insensitive or anything but I was already unhappy about having to go to work already and shutting down the ENTIRE FUCKING HIGHWAY really didn't help things at all. Seriously, break out the tranquilizer darts and be done with it.

In the evening, the exit on 85S was backed up for three miles. That was ass. Drivers here really do need to learn to not be so damn nice. Car after car after car would pull up on the left to cut into the front of the queue of cars and these idiot drivers would let them in. I mean, would they let someone cut in front of them in a theater? At McDonald's? Home Depot? FUCK NO! Wait in line like everyone else. So why the hell do they let cars in? Unfreakingbelievable. Do me a favor. Grow some nads, hug the bumper of the car in front of you and give the dude the finger the next time someone tries to cut in front of you.

I'm secure enough in my manhood to admit that I've always liked this song. Now bring back Number One Single dammit. My friend's ex-girlfriend actually looks freakishly similar to Lisa Loeb but she was a bitch so that doesn't really count.

According to Entertainment Weekly, one memorable scene from "Dixie Chicks: Shut Up and Sing" shows the singers watching a news report on President Bush's reaction to their infamous on-stage comment. In the report, Bush says ''the Dixie Chicks are free to speak their mind,'' adding, ''they shouldn't have their feelings hurt just because some people don't want to buy their records when they speak out. You know, freedom is a two-way street.'' After watching this footage, Maines then repeats the president's comment and says, ''What a dumb f---.'' She then looks into the camera, as if addressing Bush himself, and reiterates, ''You're a dumb f---.''

I would go out and buy their albums if country music didn't make me want to kill myself.

Apparently, there was an earthquake in the Gulf of Mexico on Sunday. I felt it all the way here in Atlanta in my 5th floor abode. I must say, that was pretty damn weird. It was like something was pushing the entire building to one side. It was weird but really a non-event.
