Driving out of mighty Weggers........

.....onto Eastern Boulevard is two lanes; -1) the left-most marked as left-turn only, and -2) the right-most marked as straight or right-turn.
The intersection is controlled by a traffic-light.
A silver Volvo station-wagon is at the front of the left-turn lane, no signal on.......
The traffic-light changes, so BAM: the Volvo charges right; that’s a right-turn from a dedicated left-turn lane.
Sorry everyone; couldn’t see if it had a Dubya-sticker — but I did get cut off by one on the way to Weggers on the back of an all-wheel-drive Mitsubishi SUV (like I almost bought years ago). It was being driven by a bespectacled REPUBLICAN. Obviously sure of himself, and his right to cut off a History-major, unsignaled of course.
It was an actual Dubya-sticker, everyone: Dubya-’04, not “Bush-Cheney.”
Ain’t Mitsubishi the manufacturer of the Japanese Zero? —I can still see that oily, black pillar of smoke towering above that ship!

  • “Mighty Weggers” is Wegmans, a large supermarket-chain based in Rochester we often buy groceries at. They have a store in Canandaigua. This is that store.
  • “Dubya-sticker” is a Bush-Cheney 2004 bumper-sticker. All insane traffic-moves seem to involve Bush-supporters. They seem to think they have the right.
  • RE: “History-major.......” —My loudmouthed macho brother-from-Boston was trained as an engineer, and noisily claims superiority. I majored in History, so am therefore vastly inferior.
