Our street connects straight to the highway via stop sign. Today as I was headed up the hill before the stop, a car coming toward me flashed it's lights twice. I immediately slowed down (yes, I was speeding) because I had always heard that after passing a lurking cop you should flash your lights for others headed that way as a common courtesy. Well, at least that's what I thought I had heard...I had that story a little mixed up with the one in which gang members drive around at night time without headlights on and the first person to give them a little 'hey dude, you're lights are off' flash is in big trouble. Yikes. What's that movie about urban legends? No surprise that I can't remember the title, since I couldn't remember which scenario was actually an urban legend. Things were quickly cleared up as I came over the top of the hill and saw my friendly neighborhood cop sitting on the side of the road. Today I did not fall victim to a gang initiation! I also did not get pulled over for speeding. Thank you stranger for your random act of kindness.
