THE KDK REPORT: A life of wit and purpose
I travelled to New York a few days ago. It was my first time back to the Empire City in over six years but it felt like I never left. From the airport and on my way to the hotel, I was in a cab stuck in traffic with promos of the television morning show Live with Kelly playing on loop. Traffic flowed without incident until we were stalled on a narrow street made all the narrower by parked cars lined along both sides. A driver in front of us abruptly stopped his car in the middle of the road, got out, ran up a few steps and delivered a package to a friend. As they began to chat, all the inconvenienced drivers in unison began blowing for him to move out of the way. He yelled back “gimme a minute, will ya”. Then someone quickly screamed something about being a mother or not having a mother. I’m not sure. The horns were deafening.
