About	A few years ago, while walking the twisting, stumped and wandering streets of London, I asked a fella for directions. He looked at me and said, “Go three blocks that way then make one-of-these.” (On the one-of-these comments he held his hand in front of his body and made a left-to-right fish swimming wriggling motion. AH! I know that gesture! In the States we call that a “jog.” As in, make a “jog” or there is a “jog” in the road. The path has the same squiggly his hand motion had. It is called a “jog.” The bloke looked at me a half-second then said again (in a voice a bit more stern) Make one of these.” And he repeated the fish motion. Seems there is not a word for directions when there is a make-one-of-these “jog” in the road. And that guy was not going to let a Yank give him a word that was easier to use than the wriggling hand. Anyway, back to this shot. Saw this while picking up a pizza at Joe’s in Ladd. I could not have done better myself… the street sign says it all. Go down a block or three and make-one-of-these…
