a large bird strutting around the parking lot I saw a big black bird (crow? raven?) walking across the street the other day. Whenever I see that, I yell at the bird - hey, stupid bird, use your wings! |

Drove home from today's job by way of the Historic National Road. I saw abandoned motels and gas stations, signs saying "Moo Cow Mountain", "JESUS" and "Gretchen Wilson Park", and A red convertible for sale.... I bought that red convertible tonight  |

A headless Santa in a dumpster. Ok I realize that may require a little follow up:  |

Ok this was technically inside a covered structure as well but...a woman with a denim jacket with a screen print of the poster for the 1995 summer blockbuster flop "Tank Girl" Please tell me that woman was Lori Petty. |

A young guy, across the street from a college, with a beer belly casually waiting for the bus and wearing a shirt that read THOT (That ho over there).

Most surprisingly no. Although I suppose she might be a relative. I hav no other explanation for this |

A hot dog truck. In the spot where there used to be a taco truck. Ahem. Well, I now know how I'll be voting.

Spotted on the platform at Union Station: a dead ringer for Buster Bluth in his army uniform, waiting for the train with a very confused facial expression.
No hook hand, though.

The depressed and run down areas of Newcastle, which is in and of itself a fairly depressed and run down area to start with. And the bus I was on went past an ex, she of the 'Dinosaur Fossils Are Faked' opinion. Very short relationship.

A very cute red fox hanging by the side of the bike trail to work. He had a big burr in his fur on the side so I felt sorry for him.

I was behind a car with a pro-Trump bumper sticker, a "Support Community Radio" bumper sticker, and one of those "Co-exist" bumper stickers. The mind boggles.

I saw a car with Pro Trump bumper stickers and a "Life's a bitch, don't vote for one" sticker with Hilary's picture on it.

(A couple of days ago) I got stared down by a squirrel. Little bastard came running up the sidewalk towards me, stopped, reared up on it's hind legs, and gave me a really nasty sneer. Then it decided I was no longer worthy of it's attention, spun around, and strutted away (back on all fours).

Found myself behind a V8 Camaro convertible driven by a fit guy in a designer polo who seemed to be in his late thirties. He was preening in his mirror, making sure his coif looked great from the front, but all I could see from behind him was his massive, sun-reflecting, bald spot.

Today Wifemate and I spent six hours in an outdoor booth selling her cards and prints at the town art + beer festival. It was hot, damn hot. Around 3 pm we saw coming down the aisle a young couple with a large dog, very friendly and very shaggy for the summer. The couple paused near our table, and it was at this time the dog chose to barf. The poor guy was most likely feeling the heat, but it was absolutely funny. It was a big dog and he made a big barf with a big splat on the asphalt. They must have fed him not long before, too; there were so many chunks of barely chewed kibble. The dude holding the leash said, "Uh, I'm not sure what to do right now." The girl sprung into action. She had an empty styrofoam container from a food vendor, and damn if she didn't scoop up this huge pile of barfed kibble. Meanwhile the poor dog was completely mortified, pulling on the leash like "oh gosh you guys let's just get out of here OK?" The girl made a pretty clean spot and they walked off with a big ol' plate of barf, I hope to take the dog somewhere with water and AC.

Another driving one: a forty-something woman driving an Acura wearing those heart-shaped glasses from the Kubrick Lolita movie.

Somebody left a dog in a cage in the back of their truck, with boxes pushed up against it so the poor guy couldn't see out. He was barking up a storm and clearly very distressed. I called the campus police on them.

I saw some deer by the river about half a mile from my house. Neat!  |

Two idiots on a footbridge over the interstate holding up Gary Johnson lawn signs. That'll sure get him into the debates.
