Rambling- the art of the honk

Today i took a taxi with a honkanian driver. now most people think that the honk was initiated in the US but think again. Egypt is the official place. Through deep observations I have begun to understand the languages and nuances of the honks. Now one might think, what can there be to all of it. For example, length, rythm, pattern, and more. Each vehicle seems to match its driver.

For example, beep-beep means "hey you, the 5 year old, on the donkey, watch your ass", beep - means "you in the truck on the side of the road, opening your door, watch out if you want to keep it", beeeep-beep, means "yah your a big truck, and yah i'll end up moving but still, watch yourself." there seems to be some communication method as well, passing a car requires a few beeps, responded by a beep, followed by a beep, and this repeats until one car is finally far enough away.

my favorite image of the day was a boy, ~7years, was riding on top of a large bale of grass (2ft in diameter) balanced on the back of a donkey This had the kid about 6 feet off the ground, it was great. he looked to be having a hoot of a time.
