Come on give me a break i only made it to 8 th grade . So some of us are much smarter than others were all the same inside

 
I like it, being trapped in crappy weather up north I feel your pain at a lost opportunity to ride. Here is my translation (with some modest embellishments) for those less inclined to read it:

It was a nice day and the family was off doing their thing so I decided to get some time in with FJR. Being new to the area I printed out some directions from mapquest, they looked different than what I had anticipated but in the spirit of exploration I decided to go with them. Twenty minutes into my anticipated hour and a half ride I hit stopped traffic.

Wanting to maximize my riding time I tried to ascertain what the problem was. Turns out some rocks had tumbled into the roadway, one of the penalties for living in dramatically beautiful country. Another person there (stranded by the slide or a worker I don't know) indicated it would be another forty-five minutes before the road was cleared. Being in a hurry I thought about riding around the blockage, but the woman I was talking to made it clear through her wit and excessive physical presence that I was not going anywhere. I think I could have gotten around her by offering sex, but I was intimidated by her handcuffs and riding crop so I went home instead.
