11 April 1996 MiscalculationI was surprised to find a dead pigeon in the street; it had apparently just been hit by a car. It seems that pigeons always manage to get out of the way of speeding cars at the very last moment. (Almost always.) Like human jaywalkers, pigeons always seem to exert the minimum amount of energy necessary to avoid getting hit. yesterday | index | tomorrow ©1996 David Glenn Rinehart |
