No this entry isn't about that cult slasher movie. Last night I drove back from Virginia and had to do an emergency pit stop on the side of the road. Guys, you know what I mean by this. It's one of those times you are very thankful for being a guy. Anyway, it reminded me of another emergency pit stop I had to make while on the road in California. It was your proverbial dark deserted road in the middle of nowhere, and there were NO rest stops in sight. So I pulled over to, ahem, handle business. There was a dog way down the road at a house barking at me, a good 200 yards away. I yelled at him to shaddup. Right as I was finishing up I heard this sound, and this sound was approaching me at a pretty good clip. Just as I got in the car and closed the door, that same dog was about 5 feet away from me barking again. The sound I heard was its paws scraping against the pavement as it was running towards me. Man it would have SUCKED if I had taken any longer.
