Face down in the Gutter

September 26th 2009 11:29


To paraphrase an old saying: you know it's going to be a bad day when you wake up face down in the gutter.

You know things are not going well when you open the trunk and remember only then that the spare is flat too.

You reach for the roll and find that only that cardboard cylinder.

You flush and the water rises. And rises. And Rises.



The person you just cut off in traffic reveals himself to be a cop.

It is the middle of the night. You get to the place where you parked your car. It's not there.

You have to leave, stop, go, whatever and the proprietor says: That will be $2,0000. And he is dead serious. No candy. No flowers. No kiss either.


You arrive at work determined to do a good deed and just this once, make coffee for everyone. How hard can it be? Later, after the fire department leaves, the bill for the busted water line comes to almost $150,000.
