Long before college students lived on campus, there were commuters. I was a commuter, but without a car. Nooooooooooo, I did not take public trans (OMG), but got a ride from a fellow fraternity brother. I couldn't help but notice that when he would hit a pothole in the road, he would cry, "Ouch", as if he was hurt by the experience. Now that I'm paying for car repairs, I feel his pain.
A German-named presidential candidate recently acknowledged that she had mis-spoke when she cited the actor, John Wayne, as having lived in her hometown of Waterloo, Iowa. Actually, it was the serial killer, John Wayne Gacy, who lived in her locale. Ouch! I feel your pain, but look forward to your Waterloo.
Just like gasoline prices, presidential candidacies are going downhill. So,we better get used to these bumps in the road. Oh, how I would love to be a stud - on one of the U.S. bus-tour tires. Ouch, there's probably going to be a lot more Fed money directed towards infrastructure by the end of that 'Glory Ride.'

Well, I can always go to a Meeting where your faults and failings are meant to make you stronger; where your name is your honor; where you can be fortified by a higher power. What's that? You think I'm going to an AA meeting? OMG, noooooooooo, Quaker Guy goes to Quaker Meeting with his own transportation, thank you. Ouch!
