craziest thing i have seen to date

Awhile back I saw a video of a eagle grabbing a small dog....

At my favorite fishing lake (Clear Lake, Pierce Co, WA.), there is a bald eagle that shows me where to troll my lines. I call her Angler, since she's so good at fishing.

 

Here are 2 crazy trucker stories for you.
I was on the interstate in the middle of nowhere in Alabama. All of a sudden, all lanes of traffic ahead of me were at a dead stop. I was able to safely stop and pull over to the shoulder with my hazards on. As soon as I came to a stop, another trucker slid past me with all of his brakes locked up and the tires smoking! Thankfully, the driver did not smash into the stopped cars in front of him! FYI I did get on the radio and warn others about the stopped traffic, but this guy did not have the squawk box on. I got the heck out of the way as soon as there was an opening on the shoulder so I would not get rear-ended!
I don't remember what interstate I was on, but I was behind a truck that made a lane change from the left lane to right lane. The only problem was that he jerked the steering wheel hard to make the lane change, and the drivers side trailer tires literally left the ground by several inches as he moved into the right lane. He fishtailed a bit before he gained control. How that driver kept the rig from rolling over is beyond me. Needless to say I slowed down some and kept my distance from that rig.

 

A driver get out of a truck and start getting dogs out for a walk. Dog after dog after dog after dog, each in turn clipped to a leash. When he had them all out, there were 11 dogs. 8 micro-Chihuahuas, 2 weinie-dogs and some tiny, indescribable mutt. The dogs spread out in a fan pattern and nobody got tangled up with anybody else. They were all clean and appeared well-cared for. After the dogs were out, one lone tortiose-shell cat with a sour look on her face jumped into the driver seat.

The truck did not look dirty, the driver was not a slob and there was no overpowering odor that I could smell.

My only problem with the whole show was he didn't clean up after them. Even if their poops were tiny.

 

i saw a crop duster working a very small field right next to the highway last night. i nearly swerved off the road trying to watch the aerobatics.

 

I watched half a dozen state troopers chasing two horses down the interstate and the horses where winning. They where running and playing with each other as they made there getaway

 

In a truck stop out in Wyoming, I was on the phone and just watching the world go by. There were 3 young people wandering around the lot, 2 guys and a gal. They were pointing around and talking, and I guess they decided on a certain corner near an onramp cause they all went over there.

I'm not really paying much attention at this point, but they did get my full attention when one of the guys started throwing punches at the other. I sat up, looked closer, and realized the girl was videoing it all. I figured it was an amateur movie or somesuch, but I was telling this story to a security guard one day, and he suggested it might have been a Youtube thing- that kids were making videos of beating each other up and posting them online. For fun.

Well, they finished their video, left the lot, and about 5 minutes later, a patrol car came rolling through.

 

Been out here too long to remember all of the crazy that I have seen. One, inspection station in TN, driver told the Officer not to put his dog in his truck. Warned him a few times. Well, the officer did not listen, had the dog jump, and next thing you know, out comes the sheppard, followed by a big, and mean big Rotweiller. He did have a decal on his window, beware. The other crazy happened to me. Getting inspected. They were training that day. I was inside getting a ticket and the rookie comes in and asks what they should do with my other log book that they found. He was asked where it was found, and he said, in my sleeper. I asked the Officer, what was the penalty for illegal entry into a home. Tickets torn up, and told to leave. Think that the rookie got a little chewed out.

It was not a pretty site.













I try desperately to not look into cars anymore.
