Things I'm mad about today

Last May, so I know whats coming. The last few months have been so nice, wish it were like that year round. I understand why the bluebirds come down here for winter.
If we're lucky we'll get 1 more "cold front" in the next couple of weeks, if not... sigh. Sauna til October.

To reach my house I travel a 2 lane road with about 10" of shoulder. The speed limit is 45 MPH. It is fairly common to see bicyclists on this road. They annoy the crap out of me. Today I was stuck behind one going about 15 MPH. Due to oncoming traffic it was about a mile before I had a chance to go around. When traffic cleared I pulled around to pass and sped up. After I was in the passing lane, but not quite even with him, he put his left arm up to signal a left turn and then almost immediately turned in front of me. He signaled about 20-30 feet before his turn. I was able to slow enough to not hit him. He had no idea I was there until he was in his turn. Of course he shook his fist at me and shouted something I couldn't hear with my window rolled up. Probably bragging about how good his spandex bike uniform looked.....75 lbs ago.
 
I am mad I spent about 6 1/2 hours Saturday relocating my water heater. 5 1/2 of that spent cutting, soldering and getting mad. Not sure why the copper kept leaking. Maybe my flux was contaminated or I didn't use enough. Anyway, I gave up the copper about 8:30 PM and went to Lowe's and got some sharkbites and CPVC. An hour later it was done. No leaks. Plumbers deserve their pay.

I'm also mad that people post things for sale on Craigslist or whatever and take crappy pics or pics in the dark. I have no confidence in a seller who can't tell a decent pic from a crappy one.

I'm fed up with assholes driving motor vehicles who resent sharing the road with cyclists. Yeah, we do have to turn left sometimes. Get over it.

I hate this as well and it scares me to see cyclist on the road because I know how people drive. Im afraid a cyclist will get hit.
