iRant

I run with my iTunes and Nike+, but do not ride. I might consider tunes on the bike, if I had perfect hearing, but i don't, so i don't. Really, all the ignorant pricks who have their tunes on and then veg out deserve to have their Achilles tendons snipped. I see people all the time, walking two or three abreast, headphones blaring - if you're not talking to those people, why do you have to be alongside them? Esp. when you can't hear me bellowing that I'm coming around, and esp when you don't even get out of the way of *oncoming* path traffic. I swear, if I ever go all "falling down" it's going to be either *in* forest park, or on Oakland at Hampton, where I sat for 20 minutes yesterday while cars getting off 40 on to Hampton would block Oakland traffic through an entire light cycle. Swear to god I want to put up a gate at that offramp and put a ten ton hood-smasher on it. You get in the way of me taking a nap, i kill your car.
