Hallucinations by the Questionably Sane

So I was tooling up US-41 on Friday on my way to Vincennes to do this OMG RUSH JOB that they needed RIGHT THE FUCK NOW!!!1 and I was stuck behind some car--I described it in e-mail to augustuscaesar as a truck, but now that I think about it, it was more like a van or SUV. I wasn't close enough to it to read the bumperstickers, which is a good thing, but it had a most intriguing decal. There was a vaguely familiar humanoid figure that looked sort of like it was wearing armor, and it had assumed a squarish shape and appeared to have a horned insignia on its head. At this point, my Bushid-O-Meter (patent pending) started to ping like mad and I thought OMG SAMURAI!!!!1!!11oneone!!!samurai!!!11

Then I got closer to the SUV/van and realized that I had, in fact, hallucinated the samurai. What the picture turned out to be, and I totally am not making this up, was a picture of Zeus. Seriously. I don't know what you'd call a bearded man in a khiton wielding a thunderbolt, but I'd call him Zeus, given that this is the iconography that is usually associated with him. The thing I'd taken for the horned ornament on a samurai's helmet (I usually know the technical term for this but it has slipped my mind at present and I am too lazy to walk five steps to my copy of Warriors of Medieval Japan and look it up) was, in fact, the thunderbolt, which Zeus was holding over his head. The squarish effect was caused by some other decals that were boxing Zeus in.

At this point, I realized I was getting way too close to the other vehicle, so switched lanes in order to pass him safely, because the speed limit on that stretch of US-41 is 60 and he had to be doing around 45 or 50, which is way the fuck too slow even given the weather conditions (rain).

I just wonder what the odds of hallucinating samurai and then finding Zeus are. Or what it says about me (nothing good, I'm sure).
