I was walking from the skate shop, having just bought my eight-year-old new shoes big enough for ME to wear, and I got the old HONK, WOO-HOO from a passing car. I glanced back (trying to see around my swelling ego). I didn't know the guy, but he gave me a wave and a big grin and I gave him an appreciative lift of the chin--a gesture I've perfected from riding around in the jeep in a state with about fifty jeeps per square mile.
My kid said, "That car honked at you."
"Yep."
"Why?"
Shrug. "I guess he thinks I'm pretty."
Skeptical look. "Why would he think that?"
