DRIVING DIRECTIONS

Ken Berwitz


Apropos of nothing political…

Why do some people think they are doing you a favor whenthey give you driving directions with three times the amount of detail youneed?

If you have to make a left at the fourth light, do you reallyneed to know that there\’s a Dunkin\’ Donuts at the second light, a pretty rosebush at the third light which you might not be able to see if a car is parkedin front of it, and a shoe store, dry cleaners, and Chinese takeout place whereyou are turning?

Isn\’t it reasonable to expect that, without benefit ofknowing every landmark along the way, most people can count to four?

Just asking….

Ok, back to politics, where you\’re lucky if anyone is going in the right direction, and that smell ain\’t roses.
