I found the predicament described in the work, “Follow That Cab,” to be amusing. I’ll admit that a few chuckles escaped me. I am picturing an older gentleman that has little to no experience with advanced technology racing around to find a trunk containing items vital to his work and life. I can also see the disgruntled wife, who has a more advanced grasp of technology, as well as, the depths of her husband’s forgetfulness. In respect to the style, I felt slightly jumbled throughout the entire piece. There were certain fragments I had to re-read several times. I understand that the author wanted to convey the panic and hectic emotions that he and his wife were feeling, but as a reader, it was disorienting. I also didn’t care for the last sentence fragment, “Not first time.” It didn’t really resonate with strong finality.
