I'm not normally prone to road rage...

However, I was moved to express my displeasure after this near miss with an idiot boy racer the other day. Not exactly a near death experience I know. I'll try harder next time. Apologies for the strong language, my female companion is shockingly foul mouthed.

This fell through the f*ckin' ceiling last night

2:30 am. CRASH. I had been in bed for about an hour waiting for the sleeping pill to kick in. Right as it kicked in this happened. Really didn't want to get up but obviously had to. The room next to mine lost a lot of ceiling during the Hurricane. Opened the door to that room and saw this. Guess this idiot caught a weak piece or just went over the edge. Didn't know what to do so I improvised with a cat cage and a broom. Let it go in the ghetto.
