I was out driving to lunch when I noticed a woman in the car next to me. She had her windows rolled up except for a crack, probably to conserve the air conditioning in the car since it was about 101 degrees yesterday, and through the crack she was flicking the ashes of the cigarette she was smoking. I would not have even given her a second look if it weren't for the fact that she was kind of cute in a trailer trash sort of way, so I slowed down for a better look and that's when I noticed the baby in the car seat in the back. I stared at them for a few seconds debating whether to just ignore it and go get my church's fried chicken, or to act on the idea that had suddenly sprang into my head. Since I have never been accused of being prudent in my life I decided to act on my impulse. When we stopped at the next light I rolled down my passenger side window and gave a friendly little honk to attract her attention. Flashing her a smile I indicated that she should roll down her window so I could talk to her. "Hi there," I called to her in my friendliest voice. "Hi," she answered back, smiling. "Listen, I don't want to be too forward with a stranger but I have a suggestion for you. Why don't you let me stab your baby? It might be a little messy but it will save a lot of time over the way you're killing him now with those fucking cigarettes." Her mouth dropped open. "No, really, I have a knife right here in my glove box. We could pull into that restaurant parking lot up there. I'm sure they have dumpsters." At that point the light turned green, and I didn't think it was possible, but she actually managed to make the shit box she was driving lay down some rubber.
