I remember not long ago, was along john laurie on one of the east bound merges between shaganappi and mcknight. I am hauling a heavy load for a friend and i know the merge lane ahead is both short and uphill so i carry more speed then normal round the corner into the merge lane, when what to my wonder eyes did appear, some dumb broad at full stop 30 feet around the corner.

So i have to hammer the breaks and even though i am going uphill i am pretty damn sure i am going into the back of her because i can't stop for with that much weight. I end up so close to the broad i don't think you could walk between our vehicles, hopefully a grill that close in her rear view will teach her a lesson on merging but alas i don't hold out much hope.

So anyways she finally goes and now here i am, can't accelerate worth a damn and stuck 1/4 way up a uphill merge lane in relatively heavy traffic. Super happy fun times i do say, needless to say that broad made my day.
