I was in dire need of a break from the turkey farm where I work so I decided to go for a walk around the block. I often take a literal walk around the block. I exit the lobby of my building and take a left out the door onto 25th St. Then I take another left at the corner of 6th and 25th and head south towards 24th St, I think you get the point. Sometimes I'll buy an apple juice or a coffee or a cookie or something, but most times I'm just out there for the walk around the block. If you happen to see me some time as I'm walking around the block feel free to saunter on up and say hello, unless I happen to be talking to myself then maybe you should cross the street. Anyway today I'm walking along and I saw what had the potential to be a great moment. I say potential because once again reality didn't pan out quite the way I thought it should have. I saw this guy riding up 6th Ave in one of those pedicabs and on the corner of 24th I saw a woman running towards the street waving her arm in the air. Now I would love to be able to tell you that she was hailing the pedicab but as it stands she was hailing a taxi. But can you imagine how cool things would be if she were really hailing a pedicab.
