get your groove on

all i can give you today is that on the way to lunch i saw a guy on the back of a bright orange cambridge public works trash truck, hanging by one hand, and groovin to a tune that was playing in his head (no headphones to speak of). it wasn't the subtle kind of head bob or air guitar that i am guilty of either. it was a full-out, no-holds-barred, one-hand-holding-on-to-the-back-of-a-truck-going-thirty-miles-an-hour shakedown and it made me proud. the only risk i run is being seen by a coworker on the t while i'm groovin, but this guy...man, one slip and he is road burger. that, my friends, is sacrifice.
