I didn't take no short cut...
I was driving on Route 110 to pick Andrea up from the Farmingdale trainstation when the man driving the car to the right of me carelessly tossed a yellow ball out of his window. It hit my tire and continued to bounce in the road. I watched it in my rearview mirror for a while. Then I thought of the randomness of this situation. It was tossed out as a cigarette would be. But it was a yellow nurf ball.
