we saw the lady with the night stick on spider bridge. she said people think she's wielding a weapon, but it's for excercise, and balance. she calls it a billy club though still, says her hub is an ex-detective. she says of cop, they know good people. and they show it.
on the other side a lady tries to get over the foot of the ramp in her motor-chair. i offer to push her up, but how are you going to do getting back? she turns around. i feel a little sad for those who can't cross the freeway. 

the great persuader.
