A little math problem

The total stopping distance for a school bus traveling at 30 mph is approximately 197 feet under IDEAL conditions. if you want to cut off a big yellow. How many equivalent yards on a football field should you allow? I don’t know! I’m not a math teacher!!! I do know that when i allow myself some distance between me and the vehicle in front of me it’s not because i’ve been waiting for you to stick your SUV or monster truck in there so i have to slam on the brakes. Stop making last minute decisions with your driving. Buses and trucks cannot stop on a dime. even if we wanted to. You all are killing me cause I have to hold my tongue and horn in front of the kids while they’re getting whiplash. Begging you to stop seeing red when you see yellow It’s a friggin hard job…Give us some help by driving like you remember something from your written test.

That time of year

Ok school is about to start and so is your big yellow nightmare, ME!! You left the house late for work, taking an angry call from your spouse on your phone, messy breakfast burrito just fell on your lap, and the Hearts of pine lost again this weekend. AND of course you’re stuck behind a bus fer christsakes. Sure go ahead take it out on me in my big yellow bus full of kids. I’m ready for you. I’ll get our kids safely to where they’re going despite the road insanity. I won’t even give you the finger or call you a @$#% cause little Timmy is sitting right behind me. Yes if you can’t be less of an ahole toward me and my bus this school year. Do it for little Timmy. He still thinks 6/7 is cool.

Bonding moment

Great incidental bonding with me and an old fella today. We were both standing on just outside the store parking lot ready to cross in the crosswalk , looking both ways as you do. Here come yer asshat out of the blue going at least 40 on some sort of two wheeled E weapon. We both stepped back just in time. Third time this week with an incident ie driving against traffic AND In traffic on Outer congress, riding on the sidewalk Brighton Ave. Fella and i bonded over how we both, scooter and motorcycle owner have to register, insure, and follow laws and how these fools are a menace. I told him I once stopped my bother with a well placed stick in the spokes of his bike. We had a laugh… and an idea. These e bikes including the ones with 3 kids and a dog are a Portland plague

Color commentator May 30

Anyone know who the color commentator was for the match may30? This guy was brilliant! I find Espn usually supplies the most boring play by play but this guy!!! Some of his phrases are legends on heavy repeat for my watch crew. I would love to give him a shout out. i. e I can’t unhear “ He looks like he was in the wars of gettysburg”
