Taking a brisk barefoot hike this a.m. took me by my favorite tennis court (hate the game, love barefooting on scalding surfaces) and noticed that someone had (bizarrely) scattered a box of donuts all over the court. They had all been smashed. Had they somehow been mistaken for tennis balls? I was curious why donuts were scattered, and what I, as a good citizen, should do about it. Didn't take ME long to figure THAT ONE out. I was barefoot. They were jelly and creme donuts, warmed by the late morning sun. I stepped all over them. Repeatedly. And often. What a way to enjoy calories! (Zero for citizenship, though....)
I would have taken great pleasure in stomping on each of those donuts. To feel their innards being crushed under my soles, their cake and jelly squishing between my toes:sunny:. Knowing they were helpless and unable to beg for mercy. Donuts are bad for you. They make people fat:devil:. They lure police officers away from their duties:bobby:. They distract workers from paying attention to their jobs. They make people drink coffee or tea with them, causing more bathroom breaks and thus distractions. On a positive note, they do create jobs. The bakers, the employees at donut shops, and all the 'halo' effects such as lease, insurance, utility, etc. costs associated with the stores as well as the packaged donuts people buy at grocery stores. Why throw them on a tennis court? What if Venus or Serena wanted to play there? Kinda messy I say. Bad donuts:beatdeadhorse5:

I'm thinking (???) they were probably leftovers from a post-Osama celebration.... Barefooted on warmed creme donuts.......
