				I wish I had a hand grenade
			 
			 
			
		
		
		
			So today I was driving out of my offices parking lot, and I have to yield the right of way to a first generation Hummer.  The obnoxious, huge piece of garbage that you can't park in any legal parking space because its so huge it doesn't fit. 
 
No big deal, I'm usually not one to judge, so I pull up in back of it and then I see the vanity plate.   HUM THS 
 
My blood immediately began to boil. It's just beyond all arrogance, "I have more money  than you, so I bought this gargantuan POS truck, and I am going to rub it in your face"  The owner is taking is taking a collosal crap on everyone in back of him/her/it. 
 
 Then, I fantisised about having a hand grenade, or a Molotov cocktail and getting in front of the Hummer and reaching out and dropping it out the window.  The thought of the explosion, the Hummer lurching upwards, and exploding into a fiery wreck, was very appealing. 
 
But the fantasy of destruction was short lived, thank God, because if it had persisted, I guess I would be a sociopath.  But it would have been cool to blow it to bits.  Just kidding?
