As I drove down the highway the other day I cruised past a bit of debris in the roadway. It was a plastic bag, blowing around in the wind and dodging between, under and around vehicles as they sped past.
Passing the floating plastic bag myself I pondered, as I saw it still roaming the roadway in my rear-view mirror:
This is possibly the only time when I am slightly happy upon seeing a plastic bag polluting nature.
Of course I am not happy BECAUSE the plastic bag has been carelessly disposed of, but rather IN SPITE OF that fact. I am happy because it is not hooked on my car.
Does anyone else give the rear-view mirror a quick glance after passing trash in their lane of traffic to make sure the trash didn’t get caught on their car?

Might I suggest that you take a look at the man in the mirror and ask him to change his ways…

Thanks ChickenMonkeyDog for putting me in the mood for that song.
Every time. And I get just a bit nervous if I don’t see it right away.
