Juicy Chunks O’ Wisdom For Tuesday, August 27th

‘Cause I’m really exhausted, been used like a rented mule, that’s why.

  • That was an even better cardio workout than the Habitat For Humanity day.
  • Last week it was in the upper 70’s, today it was in the upper 90’s – bad timing.
  • On the other hand, they invented the term “One Hundred & Stupid” here, so it could have been even worse.
  • The Pocket seems like a nice area.
  • The food at Sheri’s Cafe & Pies on Florin is very good.
  • They’re open 24/7/365.
  • People who deliberately drive at 55 in the fast lane on I-5 between Southern California and Northern California “BECAUSE THAT’S WHAT JIMMY CARTER SAID WE SHOULD DO!” are sanctimonious clods.
  • They are also extremely dangerous.
  • Despite their self-righteous beliefs (or utter ignorance), they are the ones driving illegally.
  • It wouldn’t bother me if they got life in front of a firing squad.
  • Marriott was the first hotel chain that I know of that made ALL of their properties 100% smoke free.
  • Despite that, it’s been my experience that Marriott rooms are the ones most likely to smell like the last guest was a three-pack a day smoker and completely ignored the 100% smoke free policy.
  • Despite the somewhat offensive smell, I suspect I’ll sleep well tonight.

Taken yesterday afternoon from the Westley rest area on the I-5, just south of the I-5/I-580 split. Google Maps says that it’s just over 100 miles from there to Yosemite, but the pyrocumulus clouds rising above the Rim Fire there are clearly visible.
