About this ebook
One street corner. Two strangers. To walk...or not. "Maybe we should have pedestrian licenses, huh? Before people are allowed on the street. Yeah. There should training sessions. Mandatory classroom hours for everyone who plans on using the sidewalks. And then behind-the-shoes with an instructor. He’ll keep you tied on a leash until you’re ready to go solo and take your test. Both written and on-the-street. And then a seven-day waiting period while they look for any foot-traveling offenses in your background."
