My backroad memorial

My favorite memories of my brother are of him in the driver's seat, tearing down dirt roads. So on nights when I miss him more than I can bear, I just turn up the radio, roll down the windows, and speed.

    Hey, Sullivan, why you gettin' all pissy with me?

    I never ran into anybody.

    You want to get pissed at somebody - try getting pissed at Laura Bush - who WASN"T paying attention, ran a stop sign, t-boned her high school boyfriend and killed him deader 'n a doornail.
