[Winona Online Democracy]
I simply walk and drive with the understanding that every other vehicle is
piloted by a blind, distracted, homicidal idiot whose sole purpose in life
is to kill me.
This mindset makes their behavior understandable, predictable and even
tolerable and helps keep my precious heinie out of the hospital.
In short, be alert. The world needs more lerts.
