Random oddness
once in awhile, i see things that seem very out of place. As i kid, i had a neighbor who rode his bike with great gusto….his shirt filled with perspiration …while smoking a pipe. That always seemed weird to me. Kinda like hiking Camelback Mountain while eating a quarter pounder and fries. Anyway, I’m at a carnival this weekend and waiting in line for a ride that allows people 36 inches and taller to enjoy. Each car is shaped like a giant bumble bee and its pretty much a two seat-er. 2 toddlers are lifted into a bee and their mom squishes in between them . Now comes the odd part…before the bee has taken off, she pulls out her cell phone and for the entire “buzzing” experience (going in slow circles and being suspended 5 feet off the ground for approximately 1 minute ) she calls and talks to a friend ! What was the conversation that could not wait? I’m thinking… “hey, whats up?” “yeah i’m on a flying bumblebee just going around in circles.” “no…they are with me” “they are having fun, but i’ll probably have to run to the car and get some juice boxes with what they are charging here.” “Oops…we’re landing, gotta go…I’ll call ya from the barrel train”

Kinda ranks up there with putting make up on while driving your car, brushing your teeth while driving too! Or even worse–smoking a cigarette while lugging around an oxygen tank to help you breathe!!!! Some people, huh?

That is SO RUDE! I feel sorry for those kids.
