March 1 and Christmas lights, Being invisible in cars and cool coats

I am back. I have some random sort of thoughts/issues today. The first is that I was walking down my street yesterday, at twilight, and I must send out a message to two of my "neighbors", though they live well down the street from me. TAKE DOWN YOUR FUCKING CHRISTMAS LIGHTS!! It is fucking March already. Put up the St. Patrick's Day decorations, by all means, but take down you fucking Christmas lights and that damn lit candy cane. I am thinking that both those houses are in for some green puke on a certain Saturday if they do not smarten up. I do not think they are Chinese so the Chinese New Year thing just does not wash here.

I am in the car, at a light, in the right lane. I look to my left and see a dude in a Lexus. He looks like he is talking to himself but he could be on a cell phone with hands free bluetooth earpiece. I cannot see his left ear but the sight is funny. Then, I see his left hand working his left nostril. I am thinking from my angle, it looks like a "pick" but it may not be. Then he removes all doubt, as I see nostril penetration, the looking at the index finger for nasal residue and the rolling of said residue into a flickable mass. Dude, you are NOT invisible. I can see you, do you really want to be seen in that manner? Remind me to think twice if I consider buying a used Lexus. I do not want to have to search for, or find, somebody else's booger residue.

Then, I drive a bit further and see another dude crossing the street. He is in a full length leather coat. I am thinking he was in the SS before or working to get some people over the Berlin Wall. It is all very cloak and dagger in appearance. The best part is that he appears at the door where I am. He is meeting a guy here and is known. I thought that was funny.

Now, I got to get me one of those coats. With the sunglasses and the sawed off shotgun in the inside pocket, I could have quite the Neo look (The Matrix reference only I added the shotgun). Cool! Ciao!
