the meme, the bad and the ugly

seems pretty clear doesn't it?

(no, I don't mean the photo taken with my iphone

while dodging oncoming vehicle)

i mean...it's right in the middle of the road.

o.k. I'm a runner.
ran my first marathon in 1997 so i've been on the streets

for quite a while, so to say.

so this is not a momentary gripe.

i must have counted at least 25 cars that did not stop...

not even slow down

while i was waiting on the white painted crosswalk...

including the guy in the convertible

who watched me as he sped right past this sign in the middle of the road.

"don't worry" i told him pointing to the sign "that doesn't apply to you"

he had no idea what i was talking about.

that's scary.

in fact there are two signs about 30 yards apart at this crosswalk.

nobody seems to think it applies to them

how crazy is that?

ok...so maybe they can't see or read...

but then should they be driving a car?

i ride a road bike as well but I'm not even going there today...

please drive safely

the life you save might be your own.

anyway...this post was written in the spirit of the

kind and good meme award

 which was passed along to me by the lovely sweetheart 

Alicia who at this very moment is

working feriously on the next issue of the Altered Bits art zine!

this award requires me to reveal 7 things about myself

before passing it onto 7 other people.

this is an obvious challenge for me as my post today is #1.

I am going to reserve the other 6

until they come to mind and

i promise they won't

be commentary on bad human behavior!

Thanks Alicia!
