balaam_ass has gotten to W I D E

Yes it is true. balaams ass has gotten w i d e r. No not balaams asses ass, his shoulders are actually the problem. No I haven't been working out but lately a strange phenom has occurred. I'm bumping into people on the sidewalks while walking around the ivory towers of SU. Seriously in the last 4 or 5 days I've brushed, bumped or flapped fabric (you know when you feel the sleeve of your shirt flap against the sleeve of their shirt) with at least 12 or a dozen people. The most significant altercation occurred on that famous stretch of sidewalk (see Thursday, Feb 12th 2004)

The sidewalk is about 8 feet wide so a plow can plow it in one pass without having to chew up the grass on either side. Of course the sidewalks could be thirty feet wide and the plow drivers would still chew up the grass on both sides but that's another story about being paid off by the grounds crew employes so they can get overtime in the spring to help pay those Christmas credit card bills..... ah I digress.

Here's what happened in a language football fans can understand.

The two female students are represented by the O's and balaams ass is the X. The two O's were both talking on their cell phones (to each other ?) and I was merely trogging back to my work. I assumed the sidewalk was wide enough and wasn't paying attention to anything much just enjoying the day. Next thing I know BAM my shoulder struck a soft yet firm object. Realizing of course it was one of the students I immediately apologized for not stepping off the sidewalk into the grass so that she didn't have to slightly jog to the left to avoid the collision.
