This
afternoon we were in traffic on Canton Road.
We were waiting on a traffic
light to change. In front of us was a
pickup truck with tools in the bed. The
man in the pickup truck in the drivers' seat reached out and placed an empty
plastic water bottle on its side on top of the cab. Then it rolled forward, tumbled on and then
off the hood and landed on pavement
beside the truck.
I think he
thought it was going to roll backwards and land into his truck bed. He did it so casual like it was an old trick
he has done many times before. You could
tell he was surprised when it went just the opposite and was now lying on the highway.
He jumped
out of his truck and was about to retrieve the bottle when he looked up and saw
the light had turned green and the two cars in front of him started moving
forward.
He swooped
up the bottle like an athlete and gracefully
guided bottle in flight to his
truck bed and hopped back into his truck
and sped away.
That was all
to that incident.
