Subject: Situational Awareness

Just came in from my early morning run and something I saw makes me want to post this:

Ladies (aw heck, guys too), if you're going to have headphones on while walking casually down a poorly lit, tree-lined path all by your lonesome at 5 in the morning then at least try to have an idea of what's going on around you.

Sheesh, even with me calling "on your left" three times I was literally past her before she had any idea I was there. 

I assisted in several women's self defense classes when I was a practicing martial artist and seeing something like that really grinds my gears.  Yell

If you are going to do the above, you cannot be situationally aware.

Ah, ok, I'm still new here. Most of the sites I post to are geek sites and we use a "</sarcasm>" tag. Wink
