Horny Truckers On Our Highways
As we were driving to town in the pre-dawn darkness this morning, a car carrier passed us. As it did so there came the annoying blare of a car horn. We weren't drifting into his lane, and he wasn't drifting into ours, so we were a little confused and simply watched the shiny new cars from soon to be bankrupt companies pass. Shiny, pretty, new cars. The vehicle following it passed us as well, but didn't look or act miffed about anything, so the confusion continued. The sound came again. Once the carrier was fully past us, the mystery was solved. The car alarm of the back most mini van on the upper deck had been activated. Beep beep beep went the horn. Blink, blink, blink went the tail lights. Then a pause for a few seconds before the cycle continued. Our entertainment continued until the carrier headed up the ramp and headed east on 40. Beep beep beep, blink blink blink into the soon to be rising sun.
