Oompa Loompa Sighting?
This morning on the way to school we soon found ourselves waiting at a red light at an intersection in Provo, UT. This intersection is famous for some of the slowest pedestrians on earth, sometimes it appears that they are not even moving as they attempt to cross the intersection in the short light sequence. Today was no exception. At first glance, it appeared that another slow walker was going to cross in front of our truck. Upon further review, it appeared that this man was no regular pedestrian. He was a bit short for an older man. He was slightly on the heavy set side and swung his hands to the side as he walked. His skin was a little bit darker than the typical Provo resident. It took a moment to put it all together, but I soon realized that we were watching an Oompa Loompa strut his stuff down the streets of Provo. The bounce in his step was unquestionable; he had escaped from the chocolate factory. Hopefully we will see him again. If we only had a movie sound track CD in the truck, he would have broken into dance for sure.
