    Who’s even still watching the world from their window. Most people are looking at their phone or computer.

    You left out the people on Nextdoor reporting that a person in a strange truck who looks weird drove by and looked at our house in a funny way.

    At least the Amazon guy, the postman, and the UPS guy each carry my package onto my porch and leave it by my door. The FedEx guy stands out on the sidewalk and lobs it in the general direction of my porch, usually leaving it where the sprinklers will soak it.

    My window looks out on the back yard. ’Course we do live at the end of a Y-shaped cul de sac … and most of the vehicles we see are to the neighbors. The ones that enter our drive are indeed mostly service or delivery folks.

    And Amazon and Google continue to be gargantuan monopolies that even Democratic administrations haven’t dared to apply the nation’s anti-trust laws to. What do you suppose are chances a Republican administration will take on the task?

    I always shop at local stores, if possible. But they seem to have responded to Amazon by reducing their inventory, which makes no sense at all.

    Sorry, Rat, but it’s a blended world outside my window. Plenty of neighbours (many walking dogs) alongside the invasion of delivery trucks.

    Almost all the houses in my neighborhood are 50-60 years old so neighborhood watch consists of watching the trades trucks create non-navigable mazes in the streets every day.

    We are on a cul-de-sac, so nobody goes by. We don’t have any windows downstairs that you can see the street from anyway.

    And then watch as they leave the packages out in the open where any porch pirate can see it, despite a sign specifically asking to please leave all packages inside the enclosed vestibule area, out of the rain and away from thieves!

    This may just be me but I don’t think sitting at the window people-watching the neighbors would have been as the first panel describes twenty years ago, either. Maybe thirty or forty.

    You said it. But going back to my 1940s days it was the milk-man truck, the ice-man truck, and the coal-man truck. Once the milk truck ended up on the bottom of our south bluff of lake Monona where “Sittin’ On The Dock of the Bay,” singer Otis Redding died a couple decades later. We drank all the chocolate milk we could hold.

    My neighbors and I watch the trackers and frequently meet at the trucks so he can just sort of deliver to more than one person (his truck must be near the address where he delivers) Gives us a chance to catch up each other’s news.
