Who would've thought that playing Grand Theft Auto would have taught me something

(January 21st, 2006 - 11:02PM)

I've been behind the wheel of a moving car twice now, and apparently I'm not too bad for a beginner.

Here's another recent milestone: I received my first angry honk from a fellow driver!

Today I finished my third and final in-class driving lesson. And I'm very glad about this, since the lessons were six and a half hours long. One thing I certainly won't miss is being in class with a bunch of dumbasses. Some of those kids seemed a little dim and a little uninterested. I'm so happy that most of my co-workers and BCIT classmates are bright and passionate; it's stifling to be surrounded with people who kill your mood.

In writing that last paragraph, I realize I'm an old man and I don't like kids.

SNL's on tonight; Peter Sarsgaard is hosting. I suspect he'll suck. 24 is on tomorrow, which unfortunately conflicts with the Federal election; I predict I'll be flipping channels from 8-9PM. "Tell me where the bomb is!" "Tell me who is leading in the Port Coquitlam riding!"
