Break My Stride

Hare vs Tortoise? BMW vs Mercedes? Style vs Substance? Cher vs Sonny (Chiba)? :-)

Whatever it is, they don't even notice the poor stalker taking
pictures, nor do they care. Ain't nothin' gonna break their stride!

Note: Back in the 80's, I absolutely hated this song until I heard
Howard Stern on the radio one day saying he liked it and thought
it was "cool." Not that I was or am a huge Howard Stern fan, but
since he made fun of everything, I figured if Howard liked it,
the song must be alright :)

A Mr X scenery , full of challenges, I imagine this guy runs after the girl in a few minutes , the rolling chair is only a comfortable assistance for the reading...

Not too sure about Stern's music pick but I know Howard would like your photograph with the smoking hot strider!
:O)

Both seem totally absorbed by what they are doing. Meanwhile the stalker sees all.

It (video) was cheesy wasn't it :-) I do like the message.

I love those moments when we as observers are almost ghosts in the scene. All of those things and so much more.

Off to give Break My Stride another chance.

AHHHHH! The video! LOL! Perfect accompaniment to this image. The gentleman's walker adds the irony. Thanks, Sam.
