I’m passing this car stopped in line and these people in it start screaming “Mr Bird! Mr Bird!”, it was some students from three years back, now going to college in Corpus.

I said what I always say to students/former students in that situation. I pointed at the bicycle and told them that if they stayed in school and studied hard, one day they might get to ride one of these too 🙂


So . . . . . . . . . . . your one of the people that I see how close I can get my mirror to without actually dinging them?
