1929

Benefit of the doubt.
Allowing the questionable. Overlooking the suspicious. Making the unlikely plausible.

Suspension of belief.
A lie held on pause. Intentionally disregarding known fact. Accepting the unbelievable. Giving credibility to fiction-usually for entertainment purposes.

Faith.
Attributing merit to something unseen without absolute proof.

I don't know where all of this is leading except that I believe I am the last practitioner of turn signal use in a moving vehicle. I keep hoping others will follow my example. I keep telling myself, Bob, you are not alone out there. Perhaps a memo was distributed relinquishing the need for turn indicators and I am still on the waiting list for the update in proper driving procedure. More than likely all of my fears are being realized as we approach the age of the great gorilla takeover where monkeys rule the earth and driving is done on the back of a horse or donkey, depending on your destination, both of which have no electric tail lights or mechanical levers to display directional intention. These things are for certain, in the future dogs will eat french fries, three hams will kill you and I will continue to blaze new trails with my use of those blinky light things for no other reason than to amaze and amuse and confound other drivers. Viva Oscar J. Simler! You are still my hero.
