Eavesdropping on private conversations is my primary indiscretion. <br /><br />Sonny – Yep, the tractor for me too. Absolutely. Not the handsome hunk. No, never:)<br /><br />Dianne – I believe my spouse said that exact same thing about lawn mowers and boobs. I can understand how staring in NYC would be a bit tricky.<br /><br />Nancy – Oh yes Nancy I know that feeling. We will manage a safe return to the highway after swerving almost completely off the road and while I am trying to restore some color to my white knuckles he will say (as if this justifies any danger) “But did you see that great mule?” You nor I care to die for thin lips or mules, right?<br /><br />Lynn – Ron will appreciate you giving him the benefit of the doubt, I do love to people-watch also and try to do it on the sly so I can’t be accused of staring. I could sit in an airport all day and make up short stories about what is imagined about these travelers.<br /><br />Talon – Okay, there we have it. Basically how do we feel when others will stare at us. Not a good feeling, I agree.<br /><br />Sparkling Red – I know exactly what you mean. I could literally FEEL the burn when my mother would stare at me if I was acting badly.<br /><br />Ralph – Yes Ralph, just how would you fix that last sentence? “Nicely put together”? Nope. “Looking good”? Nope “Check it out!” Absolutely not. And, it turns out that Ron has a lot in common with a lot of you guys. LOL<br /><br />Whitemist – I believe there is something I have failed to learn about you yet. What are your vision limitations?<br /><br />Riot Kitty – Okay, he will love you for that and I know he certainly would agree.<br /><br />Ancient one – Nancy always adds more than a bit of flair to my posts with her great stories and comments. Good of you to give Ron the benefit of the doubt on the lawn mower story.<br /><br />Judy (kenju) – That’s because Mr. Kenju is not staring. He is planning. He is thinking. That’s a big part of life to our fellows. Ron states 90% of every job is the planning so when he appears to be in limbo he is actually working.<br /><br />Kay – You’re welcome Kay. I’ll put that in writing if you need to carry a note around that shows you have my permission.

However, I think I have a pretty good knack for knowing when they're about to turn in my direction, and I look away.<br /><br />The freakiest thing is that every once in a while someone turns to me very deliberately and I KNOW that they felt me watching them. This happens even if I was staring at the back of their head because they had interesting hair or something. That sense of being stared at can be very strong.Sparkling Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12799366562472325812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11335434.post-51469019513869517892011-12-16T11:27:19.551-06:002011-12-16T11:27:19.551-06:00I'm observant by nature, but I have to confess...I'm observant by nature, but I have to confess I don't stare because when people stare at me it creeps me out.<br /><br />lol at the "great lawn mower" observation :)TALONhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03205633556998220372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11335434.post-4911779546822286982011-12-16T09:10:23.221-06:002011-12-16T09:10:23.221-06:00I do love to "people watch", but try not...I do love to "people watch", but try not to be too open about the staring. <br /><br />lol at Ron just checking out the great lawnmower. :)Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13984802196897920610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11335434.post-42785382863956279412011-12-16T08:37:08.232-06:002011-12-16T08:37:08.232-06:00My husband stares at everybody too and seldom miss...My husband stares at everybody too and seldom misses a thing. It can be very disconcerting though, and I'll tell you what happened.<br /><br />We were driving along a busy highway and were coming up to a notorious intersection which has 4 traffic lights.We had the green and sailed through the light without the slightest hesitation.<br /><br />I was holding my breath and just waiting for the crash, clutching my St Christopher's medal to my chest. When we got to the other side Roy glanced over at me and said "Didn't that woman have thin lips?"<br /><br />I'm waiting for death and he's looking at some woman's lips in another car.
