Yesterday, I had an encounter with an armed government worker on a motorcycle, running a speed trap. And running\u00a0laser, which is kryptonite to even the best radar detector because you get\u00a0no<\/em>\u00a0warning. If the detector detects laser, you are\u00a0already<\/em>\u00a0detected.<\/p>\n

Which is just what happened to me. Bingo! You \u201cwin.\u201d<\/p>\n

I was on my way to the coffee shop where I go to work almost every day \u2013 in part to get my divorced\/recluse-inclined self out of the house \u2013 and in part because I\u2019m better able to work in that environment, where cats aren\u2019t crawling all over me, importuning me scratch their backs or give them something to eat\u2026 times five of them. I love them, but working with five cats sequentially head-butting you, flopping themselves on the keyboard, yowling at you and thunder-pawing up and down the stairs is not unlike trying to work with five toddlers tugging at you and besides, I have to drive the press cars in order to write about them!<\/p>\n

Well, ok \u2013 stage set.

The road that takes you to the coffee shop is one of those broad four lanes (two each way) you find in urban\/suburban areas \u2013 Franklin Road, in Roanoke, if anyone\u2019s interested in the precise locale \u2013 that should be posted (if it\u2019s posted at all; see my rant about the arbitrariness of speed limits) around 45 because that\u2019s what pretty much everyone is doing anyway but instead is posted 35, which no one does unless they\u2019re on a bicycle or there\u2019s an AGW in the vicinity.<\/p>\n

If one\u00a0sees\u00a0<\/em>the AGW.<\/p>\n

I didn\u2019t \u2013 and neither did my trust V1. Not in\u00a0time<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Me, because it\u2019s hard to see an AGW skullduggering on a motorcycle. The V1 because laser isn\u2019t diffuse \u2013 as radar is \u2013 and if…<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
