Reply To: Sidewalk Etiquette

Ah, clearly most of you folks are city mice. But I am a country mouse, and the alternative to the ‘doggy restroom’ is somebody’s lawn. Also since in the U.S. cars drive on the right, I figure walking on the sidewalk should be to the right as well.

“Small boats move for larger boats. Both airplanes turn right. Single stroller moves for double stroller. Walking man moves for stationary man. Queen’s boat moves for lighthouse.”

And, if you are a gentleman, you should move aside for a lady. But not in Williamsburg, I understand.

“In any event, for the most part I usually find this problem with a bunch of over-talkative women.” – well, my experience has been with rude and oblivious men.

But I think I will try, next time, to look down and march ahead. Let them ignore me at their peril!
