You know it's spring when there is enough pavement showing for the town to lug out the street cleaner. It is driven around town and past our office in an attempt to remove a winter's worth of sand and gravel from the roads. It provides a definite break from boredom as I watch through the window. Today, when I heard it coming, I swiveled my chair towards the street so I'd be prepared for the entertainment. Usually the guy driving it has his head poking through the starboard window British-style so he can see if he's running over the curb. Sometimes the driver waves at the businesses as he passes and I wave back.
Today as the street cleaner passed into view I was surprised to see Kevin Costner driving. He had his head out the window, but not to watch the curb; he was looking into the office. With eyes locked he maintained his wild stare until he passed smoothly and horizontally out of range. It felt quiet even though the street sweeper is loud enough to disrupt all communications from a block away. He looked less groomed than his last appearance on the red carpet. You would think he never left his role in Dances With Wolves. It is not surprising to me that Kevin Costner works for the Town Sanitation department now. After all; I did get to meet Michael Keaton last year when he came in to show off his homemade creations [SEE ENTRY HERE].
