When yоu think аbоut peоple-wаtching, you usuаlly envision the crowds at a mall or at a park, but most of the strangers you see who parade by you each day are not on foot.  They'e in their cars.   Although you can guess a lot about other people whom you see walking by from observing their clothes, their behavior, or even their bearing it is by their cars that you can tell the most about people that you've never seen. Economic status can be accurately divined from the expense of the vehicles that people drive.  That smooth gliding, huge new Towncar must have someone successful behind the wheel.  That sporty utility vehicle, new but inexpensive, most likely is being driven by a college student.  And that white, smoke belching, rusted-out jalopy you quickly pass to avoid asphyxiation undoubtedly that driver can ill afford replacing the old junker and will soon have no wheels at all. Political beliefs and community involvement often show up on bumper stickers, as do philosophies and religious affiliations, not to mention attitudes towards free speech and boundaries of good taste.  Window decals and rear view mirror danglings denote cultural subgroups, while Baby on Board or Caution:  Show Dog signs delineate the drivers personal commitments. Momentary vehicular encounters can provide opportunities for psychoanalyzing drivers.  The Type A sort who tailgates you or passes you dangerously close to the double line is either chronically late or running on caffeine or competitive aggression.  The oh-so-polite people who wave everyone in ahead of you in bumper-to-bumper traffic must be similarly attentive to the needs of others in their lives.  The chatty cell phone drivers must not be able to live very long in isolation without social interaction, gossip, or business dealings.  And the oh-so-slow Sunday driver must be functioning on a different plane of meditation than the rest of us who proceed at the usual hasty pace. External attachments can reveal hobbies and leisure interests from bike racks to boat trailer hitches; if the drivers tote equipment, you can gauge how they spend their weekends and their disposable cash.  But the easiest clue as to the drivers identity comes in the form of an audio rather than a visual cue.  If you're waiting at a stoplight, and you can feel the vibrations of the bass stereo from behind you, the driver is most likely under thirty years of age. Some argue that the automobile has increased our sense of anonymity, our feeling that we are all alike anonymous humanoids driving like robots in identical comfort capsules.  Not me.  As long as people can use their personal chariots as extensions of themselves and as billboards of self-expression, the driving experiences of our lives can tell us a lot about who else is out there, where they're coming from and even where everyone is going. In this passage, the author is biased in favor of

Severаl yeаrs аgо, Parent, the recоrd оwner of a farm in fee simple absolute, conveyed the farm as a gift “jointly in fee to my beloved daughters, Jessie and Karen, equally, to share and share alike.” Parent delivered the deed to Jesse and Karen. The deed was never recorded. Two years ago, Jessie borrowed $60,000 from Credit Union, securing the loan by granting Credit Union a mortgage on her interest in the farm. Credit Union properly and promptly recorded the mortgage. Six months ago, Jessie Validly contracted to sell her one-half interest in the farm for $90,000 to Buyer, who was very anxious to acquire Jessie’s interest. Buyer paid Jessie $40,000 as earnest money and agreed in the contract to accept a deed with no warranties of any kind and to accept the title regardless of whether title was marketable. Buyer had no actual notice of the mortgage Jessie had granted to Credit Union. Two months ago, before closing the sale with Buyer, Jessie died, survived by Karen. A the time of Jessie’s death, the loan secured by Credit Union’s mortgage was still outstanding. Jessie’s will provided: “I give all of my real property to Devisee and all of my personal property to Legatee.” Both Devisee and Legatee survived Jessie. Last month, the executor of Jessie’s estate executed a deed purporting to convey a one-half interest in the farm to Buyer in exchange for the balance of the purchase price. The jurisdiction has a notice-type recording statute and a grantor-grantee index system.
