Caused me to chuckle
Yesterday, I saw to things that struck me as fantastically ironic.
First, my first sighting of a Ferrari blazing down the street. It was forest green.
Forest green is a color for sensible cars (like my own which is collecting dust in a shed, wishing I would come home and free it). If you were dumping a wad of cash on a Ferrari, wouldn't you get it in black, red or silver?
Second, and merely two blocks down the street, I saw a NYPD Cushman.
Now, NYPD bullet-proofed Hummers I would understand and agile off-roading horses I understand too. But Cushmans? Why? What is the point of a vehicle that can't outrun anything, would get stuck trying to get over a curb, is too small to haul stuff in or barricade anything, and still pollutes the earth? Buddy, Copper, Pal, get a bike.
