Yesterday afternoon, Arnold was coming back from the doctor around 4 pm and was at a red light when a motorcycle rear-ended him. No one was injured, thank goodness. He was stopping at a yellow light, and the girl on the motorcycle thought he was going to sail on through. Anyway, they called the police after it happened, just to do things properly. Arnold was in our old Buick, which had a little black mark on it, but her bike was messed up. For some reason, she wanted a police report for her insurance (even though it was her fault!). Well, they waited two hours in the hot, boiling Louisiana sun for the police to get there. Finally they decided to leave. Around 8 pm we get a call last night from the police. They asked him if they were still at the scene of the accident! ARE YOU KIDDING ME??!! Four hours later they expected them to still be waiting on the side of the road for a fender bender?! It's a good thing nothing serious really did happen. Crazy. But that is New Orleans for ya. For anyone who has ever lived here, you will totally understand this story.
