We were walking back from dinner when a car came past honking at nothing in particular. Dana asked, “Why do they do that?”
“They’re Yemeni, if they didn’t make noise, they wouldn’t exist.”
“Aha! So you’re saying that when a tree falls in a forest it always makes noise?”
“Only if it’s Yemeni…”
Just then a kid/teenager came running down the street and almost plowed into me despite the fact that he could see me for half a block.
“The tree also doesn’t pay attention to where it’s falling…”

now you’re assuming yemen has trees. [and i don’t remember the last part of that. we must have been closer to home. yeah, i’m still bitching about that walk 🙂 (putting smiley faces at the end of bitchy comments makes them a-okay on the internets)]
