That’s a Post-worthy headline, eh?
I wheeled my bike up to the Hummerville station this morning and made my way to the bike rack. The man who runs the taxi stand at the station was smoking a butt up against the station house.
I recognized the guy from News 12 a few months ago, when he commented on one of his employees sacrificing a rabbit on the front step of the cab stand. With shaggy gray hair and a few days’ worth of stubble, he looks like the kind of guy who used to go see Jimmy Buffett each year, then stopped going about 10 years ago.
“Thank God it’s Friday, huh?” he said.
“Yeah, looking forward to the weekend,” I said as I locked my bike.
“Of course, it’s only Thursday,” he added, “but it feels like a Friday.”
It was quiet as I walked toward the stairs.
“I gotta say,” he added. “You’ve got some serious gonads–”
At this point, he held his hands about a foot apart, as if to display gonads the size of volleyballs.
“–to ride your bike around here.”
“I hope for the best,” I said, hustling off to catch the 8:16. “I wear my helmet and hope for the best.”
