[SDCBC] On the lighter side...

This "forum" is always so serious, I thought I might share a bit of fun I 
have been having recently.

There are those days when I get up and I am ready to charge off, attack the 
hills, drag race cars at stop lights and generally just have a fun time on a 
bicycle.

Then there are those days when I know I better take it easy, I need to 
recover, need to take it easy and just waddle up the hills on my way to work...  It 
can be kind of boring and usually I forget myself and go harder than I want 
to.

But recently I have discovered a new pleasure, a new way to keep alert, a way 
to pace myself...

I count the number of cigarette butts along the of the road...  

For example, the other day between 52 and Governer north bound on Genesee, 
there were 114 butts.  Last week south bound on Genesee from 52 up to 
Appleton-Lehrer, there were over a 120 butts but yesterday, there were only about 80.

So I am wondering, is my counting technique so bad that I can miss 40 butts?  
Or did the city sweep the street and there are already another 80 butts out 
there?

Further research is required...

Note:  One must always make spotting the cigarette butts the second priority, 
the first being attention to the road and traffic.  

On the lighter side, or is it Litter side....

Jon
