Why is it that homeless people abhor the use of crosswalks? On my way to and from campus everyday there is always at least one fool that has to cross the street sans crosswalk when there are cars coming in both directions. Just in case they weren't hard enough to spot, dark clothing is the preferred attire of these rogue roadway hazards. Once in a while you'll find them pushing a shopping cart laden with so much random attachments that they resemble a land-based garbage barge. I think I may have seen one a few days ago that dwarfed a Mini Cooper. Do they disregard the safety of the crosswalks because they are in such a hurry to get where they're going that they have no time to find one? I don't think so. I think it's a combination of lethargy and an underlying hope that if they DO get hit by a car, they may be able to profit from the accident by way of a lawsuit.

Okay, enough ranting for today.
