"The second train pulls into the station..."

On vacation in London, my wife and I were waiting for a train in a tube station. Two trains arrived at the station before ours showed up. As a native New Yorker, I was comforted to see that pigeons live in subway stations everywhere.

The first train pulls into the station and the doors open. As people enter and exit the train, one pigeon flutters down from the ceiling, lands on the platform, and calmly walks onto the train like he's off to work or something. My wife and I laugh about this a little as the doors closed and the train pulls away from the station.

The second train pulls into the station, the doors open, and people shuffle out. After a moment a different pigeon walks out of this train and then flutters up to the spot vacated by the first pigeon.

Anyway, seems like London pigeons have the tube pretty much figured out.

See?

What'd I tell you?

THEY KNOW.

"I helped a German guy..."

I helped a German guy at CVS jump his car and to thank me he gave me a fancy bottle of shampoo.

"A big ass old ceramic tub..."

A big old ceramic tub flew off a flatbed truck and exploded into a million pieces on the interstate.

That sounds dangerous.

Beats the silly bouncing logs in Final Destination 2, though.

"While jogging slowly..."

While jogging slowly up a steep hill, I got cheered on by the driver of the Oscar Meyer Wienermobile.

You're not a loser, you're a weiner!

Sorry, couldn't resist.

"I had just pulled out..."

I had just pulled out of my office parking lot when a lady hit my rear passenger side with her SUV as she pulled out of a rail station parking lot. Ugh. So we both pulled over at the Taco Cabana to do the typical fender bender rigamarole, but to my surprise, a pick-up truck followed behind us. I don't think too much of it and get out to exchange info. As I approach her car, I notice she's avoiding my gaze completely. I'm standing there knocking on her window like wtf lady? And then a man gets out of the aforementioned truck.

He demands to know what happened, and why I hit her, to which I retort, excuse me but who are you?! And she hit ME are you joking or are you blind? I'm growing more livid by the second because I just want to go home.

Out of nowhere, a van with a local Mexican restaurant's branding pulls up, and ANOTHER man gets out and starts yelling at the pick-up truck man. They seem to know each other. The woman in the SUV now LOCKS her door (I heard her power locks). I turn back to address the van man and he's arguing with the pick-up truck man. A security guard from the neighboring rail station is walking over and as I'm flagging him over for help, van man HEAD BUTTS pick up truck man. Full on. I'm in total disbelief and now the security guard is frantically running and jumps a hedge of bushes lmao. He comes and breaks up the fight. I'm not sure why but it was only at this point that I feared for my safety but I was also now deeply invested in this drama that was unfolding.

It turns out the woman who hit me was having an affair with the pick-up truck man and they were having a rendezvous at the rail station parking lot. Van man is her husband, and he had just caught them in the act. The worst part is their teenage son was with him. Van man is practically giddy telling me to contact him at all if I need a witness to the accident get my car fixed, presumably so she can get slammed with a hefty fine or premium or whatever.

So yeah, you just don't see a grown man headbutt another grown man in a Taco Cabana parking lot every day.

"A bride in her wedding gown..."

A bride in her wedding gown running in the train station being chased by two women holding the train of her dress.

Paging Julia Roberts...

...is this the sequel to Runaway Bride we've been waiting for?

"I once saw a squirrel..."

I once saw a squirrel carrying an entire pomegranate around a cemetery.

"Watched a guy..."

Watched a guy on a quad drop his hat, look back and decide to leave it behind. About 2 minutes later, some guy in a tan car drives up, swerves around it, stops, leans out of the car, picks up the hat, puts it on, and then just drive away like nothing happened.

"Neutering a dog..."

Neutering a dog the other day, he appeared to be a cryptorchid - that is, one normal testicle, and one not descended, retained somewhere in the abdomen. Well, we can still neuter these - in fact, it's even more important to do so, since the retained one can later develop cancer if left behind - so, into the abdomen I went, looking for that retained testicle, which I was expecting to find somewhere between the kidney and inguinal ring.

Found a uterus.

"I saw a dude..."

I saw a dude absolutely BOMBING a hill on a skateboard, joint in hand, and a crossbow on his back. Not like a little one. Like a medieval reenactment crossbow used for storming the gates of Helms Deep.

If you remain observant...

...you'll see all sorts of interesting things happening. I always seem to find something cool to take notice of.
