One Of My All-Time Favorite Wogging Moments

________________________________________________________________________________________________

I called it wogging

because it was

a mixture of

walking and jogging

Anyway,

during a good portion

of my Jefferson HS days,

I wogged five miles

before the school day began

One particular morning,

(approximately 5AM)

I am about to cross

Buena Vista Street

at Verdugo Avenue,

but the light was red

and  a Burbank Police car

was about the cross

the same intersection.

So I jogged in place,

nodding to the officer.

But he  revved his engine

and went through

the red light,

giving me a thumbs up

while he did so.

Therefore, I jogged through

a red light

with permission

from a cop.
 

One block later,

I had to stop jogging

and begin walking

because I was

laughing so hard

One week later,
the same cop stopped me
for driving through
a red light

I reminded him
of our Buena Vista
encounter:

He gave me a high five
instead of a ticket
