File this one under: Street Theatre. So I'm walking in Times Square--well, trying to. I'm trying to make my way from the corner of 44th and Broadway to the corner of 41st and Broadway and you don't have to be a New Yorker to know that that shouldn't be a long walk. And i hear this guy muttering under his breath. And slowly I think I hear what he's saying and it's hard to imagine it but he's actually saying:
Yes, people. You are still actually human beings, with--perish the thought!--advanced brains. You may walk like cows but, no, you are not stupid cattle. You are actually human beings with brains so why don't you consider using them, please! Thank you!
And then I recognize his voice. Familar and yet not. And I realize he is me. It is I who is saying these horrible things. With my "outside" voice.
Oops. :)
