Where's Ponch?
Where are Ponch and John when you need them? And wtf is up with traffic lately? Yesterday this guy narrowly missed me when he was running a red light. And Ponch and John did get him, so things are good. The guy didn't even see their lights to pull over (this was on 19th) so when I was pulling up next to him I honked and waved, then P&J hit their sirens to get him to pay attention. Yeah, I'm an ass, but that's ok.
But the other night, I saw a nasty wreck in the middle of Stanyan and Fulton. I was going uphill and was #2 in line to take a left onto Fulton from Stanyan. There was a guy coming up the hill in the right lane (to cross and go on towards Geary) and as he was going through the intersection, a dude going East on Fulton full on ran the light and hit the back panel of the first dude, spinning his car around like Tony Hawk. Crazy stuff. No one was hurt, although I bet the spinee was feeling it the next day. And then as I was getting home and was looking for parking I saw a near miss! And this morning a ped almost got tagged by a bus! (The ped was asking for it though) And right after that an air-headed ho' from the Marina bus almost got tagged by a UPS van backing in to a driveway! What's going on people? Why all the near misses? You know what else was weird, there was a cute girl on the bus today (well, that's not news) and she had a short haircut that was cute with her red hair, even though her fake emo hipster boyfriend had the same haircut. But then I thought the girl looked like Eric Stoltz (seriously, a lot like him). And then I got creeped out like in a Tilda Swinton in Orlando meets the Crying Game kinda way. Ewww. I don't know which is more disturbing, the car wrecks or the Eric Stoltz girl.04 Oct 17:17 | /random | 2 comment(s)
