Death by Ipod
As I was walking through Boston to a client today, there was a girl in front of me listening to her Ipod. Now you see this all the time in the city. Everyone is plugged in, regardless of if they are on the train, bus, or walking. And every one of these people is completely oblivious to their surroundings. Back to my story, token girl with token Ipod proceeds to walk directly into a 5 inch curb and completely yard sale. Her purse explodes, Ipod goes flying, and she tears her nylons. Hello?!?! Mcfly?!?!?
Now I have an Ipod and I listen to it when I’m at the gym. But when you’re navigating the busy streets of Boston, and there is a lot of things going on around you like traffic and other people, shouldn’t we be aware of our surroundings?

At first I was stunned and was like, "crap, I hope she is alright." Once I saw she wasn't dead. My mind immediately switched to, "what an idiot, she deserved that."
This is precisely why I stopped wearing nylons while walking through Boston.
Imagine if Mike Brown had seen this. He would have run up to her and jabbed his finger in her face, then completely fallen over in laughter.
mike brown would have tried to stick a fork in her
