Have you ever played the game frogger? The idea for this game had to have come from the culture that I am living in now. I am a real life frog and everyday I must beat many many levels because my life depends on it. Driving here is atrocious. The rules for driving here are as follows: Be first, no matter what the consequences, even if it means driving on the sidewalk. Honk your horn and honk often. Hitting pedestrians is bonus points (so far while I've been living here, I've riden in two vehicles that have hit people). Try to make other people mad with your driving. Oh and be first, no matter what the consequences.
These unwritten rules have made for some interesting levels of frogger in my life. I've been stuck in the middle of the road with rearview mirrors just missing my torso while I've been strategically planning which gaps to jump at. However, unlike frogger where you receive multiple lives, I'm playing the extreme version where you have only one life. So far so good...

Josh, I hope you don't end up flat like the frog. B/c I think it would be weird if a bunch of green guts came out of your stomach or something. But at least you'd make the news, maybe.
that made me laugh out loud a lot. sorry to find humor in your plight, but I do send you my best wishes for winning your own reality game of frogger. maybe you should just hop over the cars. start running across the hoods as they zoom by. you could be like...who was that blind super-hero guy who ran up buildings with great agility? you know...Ben Affleck played him. gosh. DAREDEVIL! that's it. but instead you could be like "Dare-Angel" or "Dare-frogger." i dunno. i'm just being ridiculous now.
