I wait for the WALK sign, I keep it to no more than 5 mph over the speed limit, I use my blinkers, I never jump the line, I keep to the watering schedule, pass the SMOG test every other year, file accurate tax returns...

Champ...or Chump?

I don't want to say chump, but you have to think for yourself. If the walk sign is broken, how long will you stand there waiting? I have a friend who over follows rules. She causes herself so much stress worrying about how many minutes it takes her to eat lunch or what pants she's allowed to wear to work. It's 106°! They're lucky I'm wearing pants at all!
