spatchYou know how you can be walking through Davis Square or maybe by the Porter Shaw's and you'll pass a taxi stand that's like four or five taxis thick and they've all got they windows down and smokin big ol' chimneys out of em and each one is playing a different radio station and they got all the time in the world to be doin they big ol' nothing and you wonder how incredibly laconic that taxi driver lifestyle must be if they do nothin all night but back up on the taxi stand and have big ol taxi parties, right?
Well, that's only when you don't need one.

Date: 2004-01-25 05:44 pm (UTC)Because I have seen it happen so many times, I am walking along at night with people and there are no taxis whatsoever to be seen so somebody lights up their last cigarette and at that point SHOOOOOOOOOOM along comes a taxi with the FOR HIRE light on.
And thus is explained the mystical art of taxi summoning.

Date: 2004-01-25 09:24 pm (UTC)I'm pretty sure the taxis in Somerville are smoke-free, though when I finally did get a taxi home last night, the driver had an unlit cigarette in his hand, just waiting to finish the fare and deadhead back to Davis Square or wherever. A REWARD FOR A JOB WELL DONE MISTER I FLAGGED YOU DOWN IN THE CENTER LANE DURING A STOPLIGHT TAXI DRIVER.

Cause man, when that light changed to green, you would've been way run over. And that's not good for ya, dig?
