 how low am i? living without excitement, this morning a VW microbus w/ all the right stickers--Amnesty Int'l, etc.--cut me off and blocked the bike lane @ 50th & Phinney. I said hey, the driver looked the wrong way, so i tapped on his window in back, gently. he moved, threatening as he did, "touch my car again and i'll break your arm!" the 5-year-old next to him seemed to think this normal. "oh yeah?" i countered, "you're blocking the lane--be considerate!" maybe he'd been kidding-- he beeped & smiled as he drove away. no telling what people are thinking. picked up the P'up at the shop and i'm driving again, 30 minutes to Renton, starting 9:30 a.m., to run irrigation at an electrical engineer's American dream, a $40,000 landscaping job--my share is $13 an hour... |
