In 1974 I was driving passed an old two-story house and noticed a white-haired elderly lady sitting on the porch waving at the passing cars.  Something impressed me that I needed to go back and visit that lady.  I learned that she was now living alone since her brother had died in a brush fire, that she was legally blind and waved only due to hearing the passing cars.  Her yard was horribly overgrown, but for the next three years I took my mower and kept her homeplace clean every week up until her death.  I dearly loved Miss Baker and miss her like family...

We had two of those when I was young.  Old Walt (that was what everyone called him) sat in a chair at the curb and waved at every car that went by.  We were in our young teens, but we always spoke with him when we went by.  Nice old guy.  And Rosie wandered all around the town, but lived just up the street.  Very nice and would talk your ear off, and all us kids would always talk with her as she walked past whatever we were doing at the time (baseball , football, riding our bikes, etc).  She knew us all by name and would sometimes stop and watch if we were playing a game shouting encouragement from the sidelines.

For a different perspective, a bunch of us started doing this on a street I used to live on. Over time, this habit spread to most of the neighbors.

 

We had a lot of "cut through" traffic, folks trying to avoid a stop sign by going around the block and down our street. And doing so a little fast as they were taking a slightly longer route to save a couple seconds..

 

Over time, with a bunch of us giving friendly waves, the "regulars" realized we knew them on sight and stopped taking our street.

Anyone else notice "once vs. ensue"? DAMN OTTO!

 

Typing very carefully and backing up one character before continuing...

 

"ense vs. enze"? Examples are all "ence."

From 1982 to 2002 I was a small animal veterinarian doing housecalls.  While visiting my sister's family in Nebraska, about 1985 or so, I neutered the family kitten.  My nephews had a pet piranha in an aquarium in their bedroom.  My nephews disposed of the surgery's results in the piranha's tank.

 

Have you ever seen a fish grin?

I don't even know how to respond to that!
