The Price of Tolls

I heard the funniest anecdote that I have heard in awhile.  This one might even be worthy of Reader's Digest.

My friend's cousin Alan drove all the way from West Virginia for my friends Father's wake.  Cousin Alan, according to all, was a true West Virginian, errr...redneck.  He packed up his vehicle and put on his best overalls ventured out of his home surrounded by hills and trees.

Now Alan obviously doesn' travel much.  He pulled up to a toll booth shocked to find it cost Five Dollars! He made a comment to the toll person that the last time he paid that toll it cost Two Dollars.  He fumbled around in his pockets paid the toll and pulled away. 

Well...not too much longer, hurrying to the wake, he gets pulled over by a Maryland Trooper.  “Sir, you were speeding.”   Alan replies, “Well officer, it is like this.  I just paid a 5 dollar toll which used to cost 2 dollars. I just want to get to the next toll booth before it turns into 10 dollars.”  

The officer broke up into hysterics...and of course let Cousin Alan go along his merry way.

I just don't have anything to say lately, but it's not important. Maybe tomorrow. I've just been hanging out doing nothing. I haven't gotten much done today. I can't be bothered with anything recently.

I haven't been up to anything recently. I don't care. I can't be bothered with anything recently. I just don't have anything to say these days. Today was a loss, but that's how it is. I guess it doesn't bother me.
