dimland radio 5-11-24 show notes

Maybe I should print this out and put it on my neighbor’s windshield.

I may not have played the sounder I normally play for my ARGHs, but what I witnessed Saturday morning was definitely argh worthy.

A neighbor is a litterbug.

Mere feet from her trash can by her garage and she still dropped trash in the street.

Our little Edna in the hospital. Note the IV tube.

Thankfully, my wife thought to check if dogs can eat grapes after Edna had about a grape and a half. (Yes, we should have checked first. We know. Thanks.) Had she not thought to check, our little doggie could have gotten very sick a day or two later and it might have been too late.

It’s quite a tale, which I won’t go into here. That’s why you need to listen to the show.

One thing I didn’t mention on the show is how it must have seemed to Edna. There she is, eating some yummy grapes, and, the next thing she knows, she’s being rushed to the hospital. Then she’s stuck there for a couple days with a tube stuck in her.

Edna: “What the hell?!”

Me: “Look, little one, those grapes were not good for you and we don’t want to think about what might have happened.”

I think the print on the shirt is really a print on the shirt.

First, learn how to spell. There’s an apostrophe in don’t.

Second, familiarize yourself with The Lord’s Prayer. Pay particular attention to that forgiving trespasses part.

The arrow is pointing to a pedestrian who just barely got out of the way.

It made the Twin Cities local news when video surfaced of a pedestrian narrowly escaping being hit by an asshole who ran a red light and crashed into another vehicle and a tree.

I have no empirical data or statistics to back this up, but it seems as though more drivers are treating the first couple seconds of a red light as stopping optional. I been noticing it more and more lately. And I know of at least two intersections on my daily commute where it’s more likely to encounter a red light runner.

A friend has been noticing this, as well. In fact, he has been advising people to not just go right when the light turns green for them. Wait to make sure no one is just blowing through the red.

It needs a nihilistic voice.

Sure, it’s funny, but it’s even funnier if you read it in Werner Herzog’s voice.
