Im sitting here trying to think of some War Stories... but truth be told.. its been a LONG time since anyone in this area of Tampa has even goosed the gas around my car ;-)
But I just now remembered this from a year or so back...
I was coming home from Caltas on Waters and turned onto Anderson heading north... as soon as I get to the light on Linebaugh I get a newer Eclipse pull along side of me. The light turns green and I ease away from the light thinking that he wasnt going to do anything.. much to my surprise he takes off like a bat out of hell... so I give chase... Im easily gaining on him but something creeps into the back of my mind to slow my ass down before we start rounding that last turn coming up on Gunn. So I ease off a bit and pull in behind him so we can pass a car who was in the left hand lane.. no sooner I do that and he hits the breaks and POOF!!!!!! his car is enveloped in a cloud of white feathers... it seems as though there were a couple of ducks crossing the road at the time he came around the corner... As bad as I felt for the ducks.. it was damn hard to keep the car under control as I laughed so damn hard I nearly stalled it at the light.
Anyhow... hope that wasnt too boring ;-)
