This piece was created as a submission to Transom.org. Transom posted a call for submissions for a special feature with NPR's 'Day to Day', "The Short List". What's a short list?
"It's a list you create from your experience or research or daily life. You read it out loud for about 60 seconds and then tell us at the end what the list WAS. It's a story, with the title coming at the end."

This short list was concieved during my walk to work on a hot Summer day here in Dallas. Dallas is not known for being pedestrian friendly. My experiment with walking to work revealed why.

Review of Short List: A Walk To Work
This particular list contains items noted on a morning walk to work on a hot summer morning in Dallas. As with many of these lists, it is fun to listen to the list and allow this list to create a mental image piece by piece.
There are some microphone plosives in the piece that could be easily corrected (by the producer) with some re-equalization in the piece.
