I was going to/from Court this afternoon and made the following random observations I want to share:
* I am the only person on the subway without a knapsack/brief case on wheels;
* Carrying a band-aid for over ten years in your brief case pays off eventually when you slice your thumb open trying to close your piece of crap umbrella;
* People on either side of you, on the subway, seeing you are struggling with trying to get a band-aid open and applied to your thumb will actually offer to help and not be deterred by the fact that a stranger is bleeding and could have who-know's-what disease;
* New Yorkers will walk people to the correct subway stop even when it's out of their way;
* If you do drugs, don't buy a sundae at McDonald's and try to eat it on the train, people (read: me) will watch you as you try and try again to get the spoon into the container, then get the spoon into your mouth, and then watch as you zone out and let the hard won ice cream drip slowly out of your mouth and onto your shirt which will cause you, like on the shampoo container, to rinse and repeat;
* Attractive women ride the subway at 2:00 p.m. and hard core lesbians will ogle them; and, finally,
* What do some of these attractive young women see in the punks they're hanging out with?
