Silver Car

I can’t believe I drove so far
But I believe you stole my heart
Take my hand I’ll turn around
That’s ok don’t make a sound

I think I understand you
And you’re acting so amazed
But It was me that needed to find you
In this crazy way

You keep a heart protected
Yeah, I can do the same
But I was yours before I knew your name
Completely yours before I knew your name

I can’t believe I drove so far
But I believe you stole my heart
Take my hand I’ll turn around
That’s ok, don’t make a sound

Describe this whole obsession
Laughing if you dare
Another deep confession
Life is so unfair

I can’t believe I drove so far
But I believe you stole my heart
Take my hand I’ll turn around
That’s ok, don’t make a sound
Driving in this silver car
I believe you stole my heart
Hand in hand I’ll turn around
This silence is the perfect sound…

THE GREATEST EVENT EVER …

Friday, July 31st, 2009

… or maybe the second greatest event or maybe just a tribute to that event!?#$? (AKA – THE GAS STATION ALTERCATION)

Anyways, here it is as told by ‘The Professor’, BRYAN AUER.

I was driving home from the great city of San Diego yesterday afternoon and I noticed I was in need of some gas.

As I pulled in and got out of my car, I heard the sounds of two men shouting and more  sounds of people cheering and ranting.

I peaked around the gas tank and add posters and noticed that a small crowd had gathered.  What were they looking at?

As my eyes focused in, I saw it.  Just beyond the crowd I saw one man being hit repeatedly in the face by another man.  The second man was still just out of my sight, but I could see that the first man was bloody and clearly losing this gas station altercation.

The small crowd cheered as the fight continued, yelling their approval. I thought to myself, how can this be happening? Why the thirst for more when it had clearly been too much already?

So as I drew closer and saw more of the picture, something came over me and suddenly I found myself bear hugging the puncher from behind. He tried to break free but I was overpowering him and he was clearly immobilized.

After a few seconds of struggle, I looked up and noticed the first man with a look in his eye. He wanted to hit this man who had been beating him, while I was holding him! Oh I don’t think so!

As the man came near, I powered the man I was holding to one side and kicked the other back a few steps. He came at us again and so I let my foot fly, but this time I connected with him right square between the legs.

He fell to all fours and began to breath heavy. Now he was beaten AND ball bashed. What a suck day!

It was at this time that I stood between them and began to lecture them about their behavior. The crowd went silent.

I told them that their behavior was ridiculous. I told them it was over and there was no way I would let this continue. This was ridiculous, lawless and immature.

Then with a few final words I said … gentlemen, this is unnacceptable and immature for 17 year old kids, so it is certainly unnacceptable for 85 year old men. Now get in your cars and return to your retirement homes … this is over.

YES, that’s right, 85 year old men fighting in public.

And to continue the strange … now the same crowd that cheered the fight on and did not help break it up, even when I began to, were now clapping for me. Yes, a round of applause.  What?
