The Letter

To the Woman who crossed the street this morning,

I am sorry I sat on my horn at you this morning. I am sorry that I stopped the car and put my head out the window and yelled at you for moving like a float and not paying attention to the driver's on the road who are trying to get to work. You see, I did this for your own good. I was merely trying to teach you a lesson. Take this letter as a lesson of life. When you cross the street randomly, it scares the drivers on that road. For one, he has to stand on his brakes in fear of turning you into a bird; which if you were struck at the speed I was going, might have sent you to the hospital, or the burial ground, which then in turn would send my ass to jail or they would suspend my license and get fined and go to jail eventually.

Do you know what happens when I suddenly brake? When I brake, the other cars behind me have to brake. Imagine if the driver in the car behind me wasn't paying attention. Say he/she were changing the CD or the radio station. Say if the child in that car yelled out for mommy and daddy cause the baby smelled bad and did poo-pi in her/his pants. Do you know what happens to that car and that poo-pi'd baby? They end up in my back seat through the rear window. Can you live with that? Jeopardizing our lives because you couldn't wait for me to drive pass; because you couldn't wait for the light to turn red or even wait till the walking man flashes; because you couldn't cross at a normal cross path. Because of you, potentially three people could have been sent to the hospital this morning, or worse, could have been killed.

Also, because of you, I wasted so much gas in order to have my vehicle stop in time so I wouldn't run your pathetic McDonald billboard ass over; you walking speed bump. Do you even know how much gas costs these days? Yest, its not as expensive as it was last summer, but still $2.59~$2.69 per gallon still makes a dent in the wallet. If you were going to cross without notice, then the least you can do is pay for a gallon of gas. Mail it to me, or send me a voucher I don't care, just don't flip me off when I saved your life because your brain couldn't function with all that Soul Glow you decided to shower with.

So you see, don't take my yelling to the heart. I was merely telling you that I was paying attention. If it were any other driver, he/she would have ran you over in a heartbeat. And especially these days with all these senior citizens playing Grand Theft Auto - Bean Town Rumble style...you might be kissing the cement right now. So next time, don't cross without looking both ways. Try to be a good role model. Try to value your life more.

~Yours Truly
The Man who saved your life.

Man Who Saved A Life;

Been in your situation and many is the time I've encountered people just stroll out in traffic and actually dare the drivers to either hit them or stop and as they walk in front of you, have the audacity to glare or sneer at you as if you, the driver, had no business being on the road when THEY were trying to cross. What I dispute is how much gas it takes to brake your car in this manner. Seriously, to the point you would expect a reimbursement? I think if you pro-rated it, it would be nano-cents. And then you had to go and make a snide remark about the size of her butt as if that matters. I've had this happen with skinny-assed 20 somethings so size doesn't matter when it comes to stupidity. Why do people feel they need to lash out and be insulting? You made your point, leave it at that. And no, I am NOT that woman.

Well, I am sure it was huge....now I understand why you almost ran out of gas. I was not insulted or offended since it isn't my ass you are blogging about. I think it is great that you took the time to use the incident and make pedestrians aware that while they technically have the right of way......it does not give them the right to create a chain reaction potentially life threatening accident simply because they don't think before they act.
Cheers!

Junoco,
If you are reading this, just want to say I happened to scroll down to your blog about the Canon camera. If you are serious about photography, next time you are ready for a purchase, check out Hunt's Photo & Video. The salespeople are knowledgeable about everything to do with cameras, lenses, printers, etc and many are in school for photography and or amateur photographers. They've been in business Put it this way; you don't go to a steakhouse and order fish! http://www.huntsphotoandvideo.com

thanks coastal...i actually ended up getting another camera. I stayed with canon but this time bought it from their site. I also forgot to blog an addendum to that entry cause I personally would like to take pride in their downfall...i did yell at customer service and called Circuit City up and told them that one of the major flaws they have is customer service and customer relations...which one day will be the down fall of their company...low and behold look what happen. As for the old camera...I use it to take to clubs and other events where it might break or falls; i wont be as upset. But I will totally forward your recommendation to other photography enthusiasts in my family and friends group.
