Bad Drivers

By Sniffles

We cats used to ride to the vet in the back seat of a PT Cruiser Woody. While we never cared much for our outings to the doctor, we understood that our humans enjoyed the Woody, and took very good care of it for many years.

So we're sorry to report that a little over a week ago, some jackass hit our humans' Woody head-on and destroyed it. We weren't in the car at the time, and everyone is okay. But Woody is a total loss.

So, yes, we care about David Jolly's 1989 accident, in which he was the driver of a car that killed a pedestrian in Florida. Having just seen how disruptive the loss of property from a careless person can be, we can't imagine how a family suffering from a fatality like the one Jolly inflicted must feel.

(And please, don't even try to bring up Chappaquiddick. We cats supported President Carter.)

So if you want to send Alex Sink some support in her Congressional race against David Jolly, click here. If you want to know how F. Scott Fitzgerald described people like David Jolly, here it is:

"They were careless people, Tom and Daisy — they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back to their money or their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they made..."
