The new Trump Mobile.

How @Patrickbrick gets to work each day.

I called in sick again today (texted actually). Symptoms are about the same except I have also developed a sporadic cough. I haven't had to speak to anyone until my mom called today and I ended up coughing a bit while on the phone and surprised myself by sounding worse than I thought I felt. If the cough gets worse, I'll seek medical care, but I think it's going to blow over soon. I needed a few grocery items and the trip to the store was not bad. During this whole time, I haven't had the desire to light a cigar but today I kept getting the urge. Almost had an afternoon cigar. I took a nap instead. I might try a robusto after supper.

With a nice windshield like yours I figured all you had to do was duck down and drive a little faster.

It was coming down something serious. Somewhere around dime sized hail, with quarter sizes sprinkled in every now and then. With rain, normally the windshield gets most of it, but with the hail it was too heavy to be moved off its path, so I got hit pretty good. Couldn’t go fast either, since it was kind of like riding on marbles that explode when you run over them. Luckily that gas station appeared after about 2 miles so all’s well that ends well. I was debating just pulling over on the side of the road and hiding under a tree right before it did, and letting the insurance handle the rest.

It just "popped into my head".
