Banana. A Question.

Okay, so there's a ban on cell-phone use while driving. Texting while driving. Changing a sweater.

What about…eating a banana?

On the drive in to work this morning. Reddish Pathfinder brushed past a silver Mercedes. Pathfinder driver was eating a banana. And doing 70 kilometres per hour on the slowing-down curve of southbound off-ramp into flood-prone Richmond.

Had to toss in ‘Flood-prone’ because I liked the sound of it.

Back to the human munching his breakfast banana while single-handedly piloting his ton and a half o’Pathfinder. Only I’m wondering how he peeled his banana. Oh, of course. Of course. Human. Adaptable animal, the human. Sometimes even clever. Descended from monkey. Fitting word: monkey.

Eww. So he must’ve been driving with shoes and socks off then.
