The ups and downs of law enforcement

Yesterday during morning rush-hour traffic I passed several state troopers staked out along 95 at various points.

For what, I don't know.

Rush-hour is bad enough, but putting cops along the commute only makes drivers instinctively slow down. Besides, it's not as if anyone could speed through to anywhere. Everyone is doing forty, tops. Do these cops really catch anyone? Does anyone understand this?

Later on, however, I drove by someone getting arrested (cuffed and everything) by three police officers on the side of the street--and it made my morning.

isnt it messed up how something so goofay can make your day? everytime i walk down the street past a cop car, i silently pray that someone driving past me will do something stupid and ill get to watch the hilarity that will ensue. somewhere, there's a spot for me on the bus to hell.
