M2C: Who'll Stop the Rain

- I was supposed to be attending my first SF Giants game of the season tonight, but that pesky rain has postponed the game by a couple of days. Only 31 rainouts over about 50 years is a decent record.

- If California does slide into the ocean it will be due to mud slides rather than earthquakes.

- Most of the times I've dislocated my shoulder, some form of rain was implicated.

- Traffic always worsens on a rainy day. But it's not because Californians don't know how to drive in this weather. The problem is they aren't even driving or paying attention to the road even when conditions are perfect. I've witnessed people driving while dialing numbers on their cell phones, putting on makeup, reading the newspaper, and watching (porn?) movies on their in-dash DVD players. Of course looking for this kind of violation means I'm distracted too... oops.

Exhibit A - Britney letting her baby drive.














Exhibit B - Owner letting poodle drive - (courtesy my cell phone camera)














Exhibit C - Me trying to use my cell phone to take a picture of a family of deer while driving (okay, in reality, I pulled over and rolled down my window and fumbled for my cell, which let them get much further away from my car, but this sounded funny)
