RenoslashTahoe is set to remain Flavor Country for the indefinite and immediate future as the American River Fire Complex might not be contained until OCTOBER!!!! That spells bad news for people who like aerobic exercise, the outdoors and lung health. But what are you going to do? You can’t blame California for everything. They’re doing the best they can. It does make our Nevada smoking ban seem a little meaningless. Why can’t we be down wind of Humboldt county?!!?
Sorry to be posting a bummer, but here’s what happened and what to look out for. This evening at 5:30 pm, southbound on Lakeside Dr. just north of Lone Tree I was passed by a Silver Toyota SUV, I think it was a Highlander, NV plate 834 VEH, I think 3 occupants, young, white, probably stupid. Passenger threw a nearly full tall can of a drink at me. He threw it hard and fast and it hit the grass on the side of the road with a gut-wrenchingly strong thud. Went by my head so close I felt the wind from it, but a clean miss. Fortunately for me, these assholes probably don’t know enough about the laws of physics to accurately throw anything but it did shake me up a bit. I immediately called it in, issued a complaint, will go in tomorrow and sign said complaint, but don’t expect a whole lot to happen. If you happen to see said SUV, last seen heading west-bound on Lone Tree from Lakeside, let me know. Stay safe, it’s a friggin’ zoo out there.
You never know where you’re going to be when shit catches up to you, but you’d better hope it isn’t while you’re watching 10-year-olds lay the trick shit down on a bigger kicker than you got the stones for.
This looks to be the final score for the season. I’ll get a rematch next year. Now to call Pyrofloptic and TheRestlessApe and tell them they are a 2 man for Cool now…
Final diagnosis: Large tear of the lateral miniscus with no other damage. YAY! Some people rip their pants when they squat down, I rip cartilage. How’s that for extreme? Thanks fo Smella for coming to rescue me and taking care of me all afternoon AND evening, and Rob for hobbling me down the hill, and D.LaP for hanging with me in the CandyAss Ward and the Adkins for bringing me pizza.
