Blog Potpourri

This is something I did on occasion in the past when I had a lot of random thoughts but none<b> worthy </font></b>of making a post by itself. So here goes my thoughts for the day.

Yesterday and today I was annoyed by the following acts from people who were to wrapped up in themselves or just simply need to hang it up:

1) I opened the door for a young lady, as I do for everyone when someone is immediately behind me. It just so happened that this was one of those double doors like at Panera. Well she went through, with no thanks and then let the second door close in my face. Yes, thanks you self serving... (I'll keep it nice)
2) To the person who was coming towards me on the road but did not put on their turn signal because I had mine on and then proceeded to turn in, in front of me making me have to wait through another red light cycle.
3) To the individual who pulled out in front of me on a two-lane road causing me to hit the brakes and then going 10 miles slower than the speed limit for the next several miles where you were not allowed to pass.

But on a positive note... I feel I am in good health and can still do many athletic things that I really enjoy. Can't help but notice how many people from high school are in really bad shape. It pays to take care of yourself. I may have been the average guy back in school but I am in the tops of my class now. I also find it funny how some of the girls who would not give me the time of day back then now want to be my FB friend. Has this ever happened to you?

Remember, it takes the same amount of time to be nice as it does to be mean, so choose the high road and enjoy life.

 Why do you always have to put up a comment in order for it to show up? smh

 Always chose the high road but in secret I say rally nasty things about those who thought that turn signals were options when they got their car

lol feel you there pocogato. I am the same way, I am certainly thinking something different then what I am doing out loud or openly.

 Yes, it is amazing the number of people you run into each and every day like that.

They might as well do away with blinkers, people seem to have no clue what that stick on the side of the steering wheel is for. We now have round-abouts and they are a nightmare. People seem to think they are a four-way stop or something.

 Your post needs an initial comment in order to show up on the Recent Blogs page...this is how new readers find you. I feel that I have enough watchers that eventually one of them will comment so I don't bother. This was not a needed thing when I first started blogging.

I always, always, always thank someone for holding the door and if there's a second door, I hold it for them.
Opportunity may knock only once, but temptation bangs on the door forever!

You must have seen my blog before I remembered to go back and put the comment. It use to not be that way and really makes no sense.

It is only courteous to say thanks, I am sure the people who don't thank, would be the first to complain about men in particular, not holding a door for them.
