Oh Come On!!!
H’ok! So I was driving to work the other morning and there was some pea soup-class fog out. When I got about half way through downtown Attapulgus, I almost ran over this truck. Now before you say anything, let me explain to you why: its foggy with zero visibility…the truck is white…the truck’s lights weren’t on…and they were driving 10-15 mph in a 35 zone. But oh it gets better! I recognize this truck as one of the contractors at work, so obviously its going the same place I am. Now get this, you have to turn down a road that is about a mile long to drive into the plant. As soon as this guy turns on that road, the truck lights magically turn on! Then when the truck gets about 20 feet from the main gate, I see both people in the truck reach around and put their seatbelts on. Geez…I’m not a fan of Darwin or anything, but I think he was own to something with that natural selection thing.
And in other news, God really loves me! How so you ask? A friend of mine from CCF (thanks Brittany) hooked me up with her press pass for a few minutes. That’s right!!! I got to go on the field during our game against UNC!! Dude, it was the most awesomest experience ever. I got uber close to Bobby. So close that I could have done the manly thing and slap him on the butt…followed by being tazed, pepper sprayed and tackled by 50 sheriffs. I also got on the front page of the Tallahassee Mullet Wrap with some other crazy fans (scan forthcoming). All this at the price of standing the sun for 3.5 hours and a wicked sunburn.
Finally, a shameless shout out: [shame] Yes Sara(h) from Clearwater, I’m as crazy/interesting in real life as I am on the WWW. Just smile and nod like everyone else does. Humor me. [/shame]. In fact, it was just an average introduction until some said, “This is JoshuaStarling.com”. Then she had an epiphany and was excited to meet me. Yes, these are the moments that I live for…ok maybe not.
Yummy!! These are just in time for halloween!

Just in case you ever wanted to know…how to make your own hard apple cider.
Kinda like DDR but with the arrow keys on the keyboard.
Wow, there are no limits to stupidity.

Joshua,

We could install (2)two 10,000,000 canlepower lights behind the grille that would automatically come on when you get within 15 feet of another vehicle and watch their pupils dilate!!!What do you think??
Dear Ole Dad, they were running in stealth mode…apparently their technology was so antiquated that my high tech systems couldn’t pick them up. Gussie, I’m on top of that. In fact, I could probably mount magnifying glasses on there and just burn them out of my way. Heh, heh, heh…fire.
