Crossing the street on my walk (from my car)to work this morning I noticed yet another balance in the universe: For every nice First Driver willing to slow down at the crosswalk and let you cross two of the four lanes on Wells Avenue, there is an equal and opposite drive in the other lane speeding up to cross the intersection. I feel like an idiot standing there not responding to first guys generosity because of clueless Second Drive who will RUN ME OVER!
Here's a suggestion: if you are nice enough to let me cross, make sure no one is speeding by in the next lane. We will balance the universe with me waving in acknowledgement of your kindness and you can know you've still done the nice polite small-southern-town gesture.
