Simple math to a better life

Out here in the country, applying some simple math to one's daily activities may extend those daily activities by another day.

Case in point...

Where:N = Night (enveloping darkness)
CPR = Country/Private roads (no street lamps overhead)
ATV = All-Terrain-Vehicle (4-wheelin', yee hah!)
IH - Inoperative Headlight ($23 at the local Napa)
And given the following:
  • A 16-foot trailer parked on the road, while not too common an occurance, does happen
  • It's dark at 1:35 a.m. in the morning
  • Private roads are usually on private property, meaning that the person driving on said private road should probably be aware what is on said private property.

    Unless of course, they're trespassing or mentally impaired in some alcoholic induced manner.

  • N (ATV+IH) / CPR =

    I personally know this for fact!!!
    IT WAS HIS OWN TRAILER........! PARKED THERE BY HIS OWN SELF......! ONLY 30 MINS BEFORE THE ACCIDENT!!!

    Did someone say drunken state due to excessive intake of Natural Lite?

    Ahh, then the math adds up doesn't it.

    Although, sometimes, in the darkness of my living room and in the stupor of a 4 a.m. potty break, I too will stub my toes on items I know were there in brightness of the day.
