after i made it clear the police need to leave me alone i spent an hour
snapping away
just because.

tomorrow, i've been invited to tour the commuter rail repair and shunting
yard here in boston.
no arrests are expected this time :-)

I am not a huge George Will fan (For non-US or non news-junkies he is
a politically very conservative commentator) but this column was worth
