You must know you can handle the driver , because I think you will get your ass handed to you in a second.

Lose, not loose...

It's the first entry in the "Ten Words You Need to Stop Misspelling" poster from The Oatmeal. Click the image below for some laughs.

I play this game twice daily along the boulevard between my house and JSQ. Double points for the more dangerous intersections - 139, St. Paul's, and Carlton.

I was thinking this week of what part of life in JC is the most trying. To me it really might be the risk of getting hit by a turning car on JFK as well as risk of some type of accident/fender bender while driving on JFK. The specter of being victim of more serious crime is further in the back of my mind but keeping your head on a swivel for bad drivers is more of a constant.

Are any points awarded for encroachment (those drivers who continue to creep towards you as you make your way across the street)?

I came up with this to entertain myself on my morning walk from the Heights to the PATH in JSQ. It goes like this:

Advance yourself 1 Pt for every street you cross. You win or loose points when you cross a street at an intersection (with the light or a stop sign)
- No car, 0 points

The fun starts when cars are driving down to the intersection when you are in the crosswalk. You
- Stare down driver, who stops in cross-walk forcing you to walk into traffic to get around him/her, 2 Pts
- Stare down driver, who grudgingly stops only partway in crosswalk, 5 pts

To make it challenging
- Driver ignores you and blows through red light or stop sign, loose 2 pts (work on that stare!)
- Driver stops without being glared at, before the cross walk, loose 5 points (this rarely happens, but where is the fun in that!)

Anyone can play!
