Spinner Rims — Even Dumber Than Before

Sometimes the idiocy of people amazes me. Earlier this evening was a prime example. I am driving home from work on a 4-lane road. A rather well-worn (some would call it “beat up”) work pickup truck passes me in the left lane. As he is passing me I notice the truck is pulling an orange, two-axle, flat trailer one normally sees used most often by yardwork crews. This guy has a washer and dryer on the back. Then I noticed the wheels.

Spinners.

You know…those goofy things, popular within the hip-hop community? Those wheel covers which spin independently of the wheel itself when the brakes are applied?

Yeah, this person had them on his trailer. Not the truck itself, folks, but the beatup, rusty, dusty, dirty TRAILER. And one of ‘em wasn’t even working properly…just hanging there, partially broken off so it was no longer balanced.

That just seemed awfully ridiculous.

    “What do the changes mean? They can either strengthen and unite us, or they can weaken and divide us. We must decide… But mark my words, unless we handle this well, immigration of this sweep and scope could threaten the bonds of our union.”
