Then you better make sure you don't miss a one...not even jay walking, failing to put enough money in the parking meter and sneaking away without getting caught. Don't enter any exit doors and for God's Sake don't go 1 mile above the speed limit....you got alot to handle there bub, watch your blood pressure in the meantime I'm going to have some fun!!
I'm sure I make my share of boo boos but I try my best not too. I don't jay walk. I do put money in the parking meter. I don't enter exits. I don't break in lines. I don't drive the left hand lane and then try to duck into the right just before I approach the exit I want. I don’t speed unless it is to avoid a dangerous situation. I don’t blow my horn at other drivers needlessly. I don't put my kids in every line at the supermarket with a candy bar so I can break ahead of everyone else if they get to the register before I do. I don't steal people's signs. I cut my grass every week but I never start before 10:00 on Saturday because I don't want to disturb my neighbors. If I must cut it on Sunday I don't do it until after church services even though I'm not a Christian. I guess I’m just a stupid citizen. I’m afraid a lot of people have forgotten what that word means. To me it means trying to do your best to do the right thing even if no one is watching because you believe in your responsibility to society and yourself. My blood pressure is fine and I love my life because I’m free…and hopefully, responsible.
