The GnomeCam caught me leaving for work on my motorcycle today, unaware of the events that woud occur before I reached my destination. About 15 minutes from work, an old man pulled right in front of me oblivious to my existance. I decided not to honk since he'd most likely have had a heart attack. A fellow motorist pulled up at the light and said "That could have killed you, I hope you're alright!" to which I replied "Happens all the time, thanks." Once the light turned green the bike completely died! No power whatsoever. I had to push it off into a gas station where I was told "You can't leave that there, after 9/11 no abandoned vehicles are allowed on the property." At this point I felt like I was in the twilight zone, so I pushed it into an adjacent lot and had Duane pick me up for work. Somehow the old man who cut me off was able to affect my timeline and force me into a parallell universe. If the bike starts right up after work I'll know it was his doing. If not, my battery most likely died.

Yesterday on my way home from work I pulled into Chevron and got some gas. As I pulled out into the lane an old man cut me off and nearly hit me. I promptly pulled up next to him and notified him that he could have hit me. His responce was the middle finger to which I replied "WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO ABOUT IT OLD MAN!" Then as I pulled away from the light my bike sputtered and died. After sitting for 10 minutes in 91 degree heat, wondering how I would get it home, I started it back up and it ran fine until I got home.

Motorcyclists are just screwed from the get-go. I would have thrown my helmet at the guy after he gave me the finger. Good thing it started back up, I was about to head down there and pick you up.
