Hang up and drive!

The other day just as I was ready to step off the curb a pickup truck from a local institution turned right in front of me and pulled into the lot of the coffee shop I was heading for.

I thought the driver was someone I knew and I walked up to the driver's side to kid him about nearly running me over. The driver was on the phone and wasn't who I thought it was. I should have told him that he could have hit me, but I was too polite for my own good and said nothing more than "I thought you were somebody else."
