Today, i got my first ever speeding ticket near Viola or I should say, in Viola, along that 300 yard speedtrap where it changes from 50 mph to 30 mph. I saw a car pulled over on the opposite direction and neither did slow down nor notice two other sheriff cars in my own direction, a fact the cop gently pointed out when he handed me the ticket and wished me a good day. That silenced me, for awhile. I do not know if it is the act itself, or the 200$ fine or the lack of mindfulness which upset me. hopefully the latter but probably a combination of all three. i will now be careful when driving those country roads.
later that evening and the next morning, when i watched The Burmese Harp, it seemed to bother me even less.
