I did not take this picture. However, it suffices to set the stage for something I witnessed. It all started when I found myself at the back of a traffic jam in a part of town that almost never has them. As traffic inched forward I noticed a officer in the next lane trying to make his way to the stop light. I see cars weaving out of their lane and assume a typical rear ending. Alas nothing so understandable. When I finally made my way to the front of the line I see a woman that can only be described as blond holding a gallon gas can next to her hummer which is completely undamaged and stalled in the middle lane at a stoplight. I overhear her telling the officer "it's no big deal, dont worry about it."
"how long have you been hear ma;am?"
"About 20 minutes"
"Any reason you didn't push the car into the parking lot?"
"Just seemed like a big hassle when I just needed to walk up the road for gas"
The light turns green and I see the officer starring blanking at the woman, and the woman, clearing believing she could have taken no other action, stares back indignantly. There are very few things funnier than a hummer running out of gas, and a hummer running out of gas being driven by a petite blond who decides to create a 2 mile long back up by abandoning her vehicle to go pick up 2 gallons of gas is one of them.
