Yesterday I had a flat tire on the highway, so I eased my car over to the shoulder of the road, got out, opened the trunk, took out two cardboard men, unfolded them and stood them at the rear of my car facing on-coming traffic.

They're dressed in open trench coats that expose their nudity to oncoming drivers. They look so lifelike you wouldn't believe it.

Traffic started slowing down to look at my lifelike men and of course traffic began backing up. Everyone beeped their horns and waved like crazy.

It wasn't long before a state trooper pulled up behind me.

When he got out of his car and started walking toward me I could tell he wasn’t a happy camper.

"What's going on here?" he demanded.

"My car has a flat tire," I said.

“Well, what are those obscene cardboard men doing here by the road?" he demanded.

I couldn't believe he didn't know, so I said, “Helloooooo…those are my emergency flashers.”

Tfw you run out of bolts but you need something to take that vertical load.

Philippians 2
10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Self helplessness. The wind blew two trees across rail road tracks. There's an article in the news about the train being stranded there for 15 hours. People calling customer service from the train and bitching.

This is straight out of Atlas Shrugged.... you mean to tell me that 1) track maint is so poor that this happened in the first place? 2)that a maint crew couldn't get out there in less than 15 hours? 3) that 3 grown ass men on the train couldn't push those trees off the tracks?

The crews are apathetic... and the passengers could be stranded on an escalator. Maybe next time they should write a sternly worded letter to AMTRACK instead of calling customer service!

Who is John Galt?
