Gorilla Stompin’ Rant.
Enjoy Every Sandwich has posted the best rant I’ve read in a while. It deals with a bill being proposed by one of the maroons in the New Jersey Assembly that would ban smoking while driving. (Note: The BlogSpot permalink is not working, so scroll to July 25 for the Post entitled, “Destroy New Jersey Before New Jersey Destroys You.”)
I would have preferred that the Assembly tackle the issue of nose picking while driving. Ever get stuck in traffic next to someone who has his finger buried in his shnozzola up to the second knuckle? Ewwwww.
Seriously folks, New Jersey already has a perfectly good Careless Driving Statute, so we need this silly shit about as much as we needed, say, Golan Cipel.
First they tax it.
Then they find ways to fine it.
Then they move on to the “next” easy prey.

This is what Granny Alice would have thought a “blogger” was.

The leading cause of car accidents is stupidity. Let’s ban that.

… it’s impossible to ban stupidity… if we did that, we’d have to lock up all of our politicians… and then what would we do?… we’d be like little lost sheep without thier guidance…

Lighting a small hash pipe full of very seedy pot, with two hands, while driving with one’s knees down the Turnpike was doubtlessly illegal. But heck, we could do it, except when one of those flamin’ seeds popped and flew out onto the driver’s stindeens. There oughta be a law against that! If you were alone at the time, you had to throw down the lighter and douse it with the nearby can of Bud….

Man, Brush Fire while driving. Doesn’t get much more hairy (pun intended) than that!
