NEXT !!
I've decided that people like being NEXT. They wallow in NEXTness. They embrace NEXTness and never want to let go. I started this journey to understanding supreme NEXTness years ago whilst we (the family) were at the Great New York State Fair and we (my wife and my 2 female children) wanted to get an old fashioned picture taken. I was more than content to take an old picture and crumple it a little and then burn the edges like you do to make a piece of paper look old. You see the old fashioned pictures were expensive and I figured there went my full rack of Dinosaur BBQ Ribs... anyway. There was a line of people waiting to get their picture taken so I started having fun with the crowd when we got to be NEXT. I just started an improv little shtick about how being NEXT was best because you were ahead of everybody else and nobody was ahead of you and we were NEXT. Well I've taken this idea and applied it to a pet irritation of mine that happens to everyone who drives when they come upon one of these.....
.... and there are too many cars to make it through the green light. How many turns of the light does it take to get a person to accelerate more quickly through an intersection ? Maybe it's me but it seems that people who've waited for their turn to be NEXT at a traffic light go slower then if they hadn't waited at all. It's their turn to be NEXT and they want to enjoy it. Speeding up so that more than 5 or 6 cars can make the light is a waste of NEXTness, besides they're providing someone an opportunity to be NEXT. Enjoy your NEXTness elsewhere people, I'm in a hurry.

ps. I've more then made up for the lost ribs.
