Yet another Funny Thing I Saw On The Road.

Creeping along on 580 W through Livermore. This is normal, that highway is overloaded most of the day. I notice a dead raccoon by the side of the road. Looks like it got hit and managed to crawl out of traffic before expiring. There it lay, legs spread out, tail straight behind it, with a "fuck, I'm dead!" expression.

That's not the funny part. The funny part is that someone stopped and drew a chalk outline around the raccoon, and wrote "Call CSI!!!" in huge letters. Luckily I had swallowed my Coke before I saw that.

Eariler in the week, while cutting over to Livermore on 84 E, I saw a five-foot rattlesnake crossing the road. Nice thing was everyone stopped to let him go by.

Sorta like this guy?
