rockin' down the highway

Got those highway blues, can't you hear my motor runnin'
Flyin' down the road with my foot on the floor


streets....let's talk about streets....every weekend it seems hordes of bicyclists are clogging up the roads in Carp..esp the back roads where I go to meditate....a nice drive on Highway 192 or 150 always clears the head....but lately the roads have been overtaken by skinny dudes on bicycles, dressed embarrassingly in cutesy garb like Tour de France wannabe participants...all gaudy and yellowy jerseys....

this horde mentality needs to stop...ride your bikes all you want, but stop being so needy and try riding alone or if you really can't be alone for an hour, maybe one or two others...geez




Good!!

next I see on Saturday Nov 2, two days before the SB election results, a non-profit called SB Open Streets is closing off Cabrillo Blvd so people can play in the street..I visit their website and they want a donation...they want a donation from me so they can play in the streets!


and that's the the typical mentality of a non-profit...give them money so they can do what they like to do...in my world you have to work for your money and then maybe you get to do some of what you like to do, in measured doses..and if you're smart, you can leverage the cash to buy some freedom...everything has a price...everything

Join Us As Our Streets Come Alive!

 Saturday, Nov 2nd, from 10 am - 4 pm, the streets become our longest public park with over 2.5 miles of Cabrillo Blvd and part of the Funk Zone transformed into a celebration of people-power to promote better health, flexibility and FUN! No cars – no fumes – no traffic, just the open roads filled with walking, biking, skating, moving and doing! Mark your calendars and plan to have a blast!

The SB Open Streets Story
It all started three decade ago in Bogotá, Colombia. The community wanted an escape from the usual congestion and traffic and decided to close miles of roadways each week to cars and open the streets up for biking and other forms of human movement

Bogota, Columbia..the drug capital of the world is the model?? oh well Santa Barbara I guess is the booze capital of the world so it's fitting...



bad!!

so now I'm supposed to pretend cars don't exist and all the yuppieswuppiemuppies can just dance around life all day without a care in the world?? sorry, but life doesn't work that way...

forcing a shutdown of a main artery in Santa Barbara so people can lolligag in the street all day every day...with a sandy beach just a few yards away??

well it sounds like Commie conspiracy to me!
