You're in the city, walking down the sidewalk, and see someone patting an invisible dog on the head.

What is happening?

Answer

This is how people, at least in Esteli, hail a taxi.

hail yes!!!

Thanks John,

I enjoy it. RichMcClure

Oh, thank

DOG someone finally fessed up!! And, yes, intentional pun!

If no answer by tomorrow morning

I'll post it.

Hopefully someone went outside today, watched people on the sidewalk, and noticed what I'm talking about.

Slow down...

cops ahead.

OK, Tom

You might be on Corn Island time already. Read the date on the post :-)

it's morning....

and i am right in america.

Oh Mozart!

Mozart, you give the Viennese too much credit and demand too much of the Royal ear.

mas despacio

mas despacio,,,petting a dog on the head is how the old man on the street here signals the speeding motorists and taxistas to slow down,,

You're getting

warmer.

That dog, got away

from MA, invisible boat.so in a sense it's now LFJW's dog. ROTFLMCO

FAP

Somebody

PLEASE spill the beans! WHAT does it mean?????? ARRGGHHHHH...

Hint

The person patting the invisible dog is standing up, and it's a big invisible dog, like a Great Dane.

That's good John, I remember Henry

And the man petting him is keeping a hand on Henry till Janie arrives.

Second scenario, Is the man's face painted white, that petting Henry, the invisible Great Dane, if it is he is on vacation from San Francisco trying to convince Henry to lead him to the wharf in San Juan del Sur.

sts, This better be goood, We're waiting.

Nope

It's not the guy from Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, either.

If it has nothing to do with signaling, Taxis, Bus or police

And nothing to do with Henry (The invisible Great Dane storybook)

Than it must be good old NicaLand city folks, signaling to one another, there Hellos and Goodbyes.

I like it. RichMcClure

its John's question

he had a problem posting it so I posted it for him.

I made my guess of someone calling you over, you know the reverse come over here wave.

He said NO.

sts, Sorry about my confusions...?

It's a man using a hand signal to stop the bus, and as the bus gets closer his hand motion move higher.

Extremely close

I haven't seen this used for buses but won't deny it's possible. I don't know about the "higher" bit either.

Any good fishermen should know this

It's the same hand in rod motion I use to lore the fish in, and internationally used by the police to real you in, and depending on how fast the motion of his hand, you can calculate the amount of action certificates that will be required.

It's really much simpler than that

Does everyone give up?

no, look

below

my robot controller.....

is spoofing someone!

this is....

the right answer and any self respecting right winger would know it.

hic-up

overdose of FDC?

A cockroach

has run up his shirt sleeve and he's trying to get rid of it.

What he should really do is call a taxi so he can go home and change.

Who knows? Who cares?

Obviously the invisible dog doesn't bite, so he's a nice doggie, and not some mean, vicious ratwiler (however u spell it). So I'd just rip the dog off by holding an invisible ham bone in my hand for him to follow, and telegraphically encourage it to follow me home by chanting "Here Doggie. Here doggie. I've got a nice, hot b*t*h in heat waiting just for u". And obviously, the guy patting the dog wud never know it's gone. Because he's visually impaired, that is stone blind, something u intentionally neglected to mention, hoping to confuse us to elicit some stupid response. Shame on u and your deceits.

Come

It means come, come here, etc.

--- I am trying to be the man my dog thinks I am.

Now wait just a cotton pickin minute,

How are we to know it is a dog and not a stupid 'ole alley cat or some other abandonded invisiable city animal...

No wonder more inteligent people are leaving the cities, so the rest can take care of problems such as this...

Wait a minute where am I going with this? Getting off topic again I guess.

Lyin' Farmer John Wayne

I think

the zinc lock rusted through and broke on the mental ward door and all the loonies got out.

Wait a minute, I was talking about my homies on NL.

The Three stooges

Would say I resemble that and I like voilence because they smell so good.

Canta no LLores

And there

reel purty 2.

why does everyone assume

its a man ....

i had the hottest nica chica in metro centro give me the blind persons hand jesture , but never knew what it ment ...

i thought it it was beat it take a hike a few weeks later i found out what she was after....

Hand signal

It is an silent indication to the person that he is looking at to slow down.
