idiotarod jane i walk home from john's apartment, and i'm happy because of last night and because it's warmer today, so i'm skipping over icy spots on the sidewalk and smiling at strangers. and i get up to clinton street but before i can cross my path is barred by about twenty pirates, and then maybe six octopi, and then some more pirates, and then some people ringing bells. "The Iditarod is the famous long-distance race in which yelping dogs tow a sled across Alaska. Our Idiotarod is pretty much the same thing, except that instead of dogs, it's people, instead of sleds, it's shopping carts, and instead of Alaska it's New York City." www.precisionaccidents.com 050129 what's it to you? who go blather from
