Is is really April????

I almost died this morning. I say that rather flippantly but it was real. I live in West Texas; a rather flat area where lights from homes or vehicles can be seen for miles when you are in the country. There are very few trees blocking the view and the stars are magnificent. I live in the country. away from the street lights on a two lane farm to market road. The nearest town is about 5 miles away and has a population of around nine thousand people.
This morning(as usual) I left at 6:30. With daylight savings time it is still very dark outside. Our little two lane road has a 70 MPH speed limit. There is no shoulder on this road; a stretch of asphalt that sees more tractors than BMW's. For the most part the road is flat but there is one small area where there is a depression. It is a "no passing zone" complete with a double yellow stripe. This morning there were two trucks on the road; one in his lane and one in mine. I watched as this lunatic drove his white Ford crew cab truck into a field and wondered if he was going to need to clean out his seat. I also wondered why I didn't have more of a reaction.
