    I saw a man walking a pig, on a leash, down the sidewalk. It wasn't a little tea cup pig, or a baby pig but a big *kitten* ready to put a saddle on & let kids ride it pig! My son and I saw an old man driving down the street with a goose in his lap & its head out the window. Welcome to life in Hawaii!

    a motorcycle was coming up behind me, riding between lanes. i turned outward a bit, to make sure i gave him room. sure, riding between lanes is illegal, but i'm not more catholic than the pope or anything. but the suv a couple of cars down turned it, almost knocking the motorcyclist down! fortunately the other car next to the suv made room, and the biker just rode past and waved at the SUV.

    seriously lady, you want to cause a guy to wreck? do you trip people that jaywalk?

    My commute is less than 5 minutes if I catch all the lights.

    This morning I saw a neighbor I grew up with panhandling at the entrance to I95. I happen to know he has brand new shoes on, and a cooler full of beer and food in the bushes.

    Then at the next intersextion (on purpose) there was a dude with a "love Jesus ....." and a lot of writing. When he turned around he had a ventriloquist dummy on his back.

    It freaked me out :noway:

    That is GOOD!


    A few years back I saw a kid playing a trumpet while on my evening commute. He was holding his Music against the steering wheel, with what ill refer to loosely as his driving hand, and his right hand he was holding his trumpet to his mouth and actually playing. Speed limit 65 mph....

    Yes...but you have to come here to Jacksonville....the birthplace of Salt Life. We take you to the Salt Life Food Shack and make you eat a tuna poke bowl while we conduct an interview to see if you are truly Salt Life material. If you pass, you can put a sticker on the back of your vehicle no matter where you live.
    "Salt Life" is a state of mind.
    You can be from anywhere in the world but, if your heart is on the waves and in your dreams you can taste the ocean, that is the salt life.
    Geographical location has very little to do with it.
    Thats my opinion anyway.

    This reminded me of a story. When I was a kid (think dinosaurs) a friend on a bike was going up between the cars at a high rate of speed. A guy in a big truck swung his door open and my friend ended up on his lap, with this bike. Lucky he wasn't hurt, but the truck door was messed up. Some people are just too stupid :grumble:

    Ha! The company I work for - the main business office is in Iowa. I live in Florida. A lot of cars in our company parking lot with Iowa license plates...they stay for a couple of years and move back to Iowa. I assume the Salt Life stickers go with them! :bigsmile:

    This sounds straight out of the Salt Life brochure. Do you work for the company? :P

    We all know that people in Iowa aren't allowed to visit the coasts

    Thats a Salt Vacation not a Salt Life.

    Lol! Love this.

    I live in Washington. I live the "everything is made of salt and grey" life, I guess.
