Sacramento: Navel of Weird

[Comrade Rocket]

I live about 45 minutes out of Sacramento in this tiny little town called Shingle Springs, and I have figured that Sacramento is the Capitol of weird. Im sure that everytime I go down there to visit something strange happens.

I can't remember all the things that I have seen, but here is some of them. I saw a Squirrel bite thru a kids hand webbing. I have been shot at. My neighbor at the time went insane, then he tied up his wife and boarded up his house to "protect his family." What from, I have no idea. And don't even get me started with the whole Gray Davis recall. There is more, but today topped the pile. Today something happened that proved my point.

I was visiting my Grandma (who lives in Sacramento) when I needed to stop for gas. As I waited, a big red truck drove by and caught my eye. It stopped at a stop light. Then I noticed that driving the big red truck was a clown.

YES THATS RIGHT, A CLOWN. and then to make it worst he started to check his makeup. Then I kinda blanked out. For a few minutes sound, color and feelings had all blended together. Then I snapped back and he had left. I was left there with the image of the Clown in a big red truck checking his makeup.

Sacramento is weird. I was going to move there when I moved away from here, but after today, I have seriouly changing my mind.
