At the next light, she was in the left lane a couple of cars back, and i just rolled to the front, trying not to be all confrontational about it (hard to resist, because usually they're long gone after the fact). The second light after that, we were both at the front of the line, and she sincerely apologized, saying she hadn't seen me (wearing a yellow jacket, blinkies, etc.). It was surprising and made me feel like there's some hope, after dealing with so many intently indifferent drivers on other days.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24834568.post-76376887114844884462007-04-20T16:32:00.000-05:002007-04-20T16:32:00.000-05:00Like Jeff, I was imagining you ala Eastwood but s...Like Jeff, I was imagining you ala Eastwood but saying, "how are you going to pick up your teeth with two broken hands"?<BR/><BR/>But then again, maybe he was just being friendly....could happen.amidnightriderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13961440167635690163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24834568.post-48250152927642745852007-04-19T23:26:00.000-05:002007-04-19T23:26:00.000-05:00Naw, I don't want to flip your bird....she looks t...Naw, I don't want to flip your bird....she looks too heavy : P<BR/><BR/>It's the pale ale typinJackrabbit Slimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15842545658677306561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24834568.post-14539566625050785672007-04-19T11:25:00.000-05:002007-04-19T11:25:00.000-05:00Sounds like you properly defused him.

Very mullworthy. <BR/><BR/>I found myself reading this and embellishing, imagining the guy had Clint Eastwood's ominous Dirty Harry voice and semi squint. <BR/><BR/>He also had one arm draped casually over his girl's shoulders, and as she laughed, the car gave a sporty roar and it pulled away.<BR/><BR/>I've seen WAY too many movies.Eclectchickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14378678427426158365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24834568.post-258550390055599852007-04-19T08:29:00.000-05:002007-04-19T08:29:00.000-05:00You should have said -- I no longer flip people th...You should have said -- I no longer flip people the bird -- just my U-lockKMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06966611121246745152noreply@blogger.com
