Bright Lights II

By -
As a follow up from this post. 

It has been a while since I've had to high-beam a bright lighter. No doubt, part of that was due to the law that Tennessee passed on the topic. A commenter on the previous post indicated that vehicles (often trucks) with the suspension adjusted so the rear of the vehicle is lower than the front of the vehicle also contribute to the bright lights. 

Well, that is known as the "Carolina Squat," and it is illegal in Tennessee as of July 1. 

Good!

Bright Light!

A friend posted this on Social Media recently, and this hits close to home.  When an asshole has those super-bright LED lights and I high-beam them back, they will often high beam in retaliation. As if to say "I'll show you some real high beams!" The irony - my eyes are already hurting - their "high" beams don't hurt worse.  But now the asshole's eyes are hurting, as well. If I gotta be in pain because of your illegal activity , then you will be in pain, as well. I've accepted suffering as part of my life. Now your feels and your eyes must also live with momentary suffering.  And, for those wanting to challenge the above statement of "illegal activity" - please peruse this .  "... but shall not project a glaring or dazzling light to persons in front of the headlights..."

Reposted from Social Media: By Robyn Eshelby-Theart. ====== I'm a qualified dog behaviourist. Not only that, but I spend my entire life working with dogs. It's literally my 24/7/365 as, beyond being a behaviourist, I have a doggy daycare and boarding facility. My job is dogs. Tonight I will share something with you. And for the sake of all innocent animals, I hope that you read it. PIT BULLS ARE NOT PACK DOGS. PIT BULLS ARE NOT MULTI-PET-HOME DOGS.   Now before everyone launches into the "I know a nice pit bull who nurses kittens and walks around with a duckling on his shoulder" stories... Everyone knows a nice pit bull. If everyone here was to post their nice Pitbull story, within a minute or two people who truly understand the breed would refer 100+ pit bulls currently sitting in rescue within 50km of Fourways, with profiles on social media, whose only crime was being true to their breed design. Hundreds of Pit bulls around the country, possibly thousands in fact,

Fornicateth around and Findeth Out.  Well, that's not exactly how the phrase goes, but you get the idea.  East Tennessee State University released head coach Brad Irwin in 2021, after a sub-.500 season. Irwin led the team to a winning season and the playoffs just the year prior.  The successor, Belinda Hendrix, was fired a year in , due to allegations of "mental abuse." The interim coach is now Cheryl Milligan.  How do they stack up? Irwin (2021): 15-22 Hendrix (2022): 8-47-1 Milligan (2023): 15-37 The grass was clearly not greener.  Full disclosure, Brad Irwin was this author's brother in law for over 20 years. We first met in 1995 or so. Have had many Holiday meals with him, our kids are cousins, etc.
