on the way to the dog fountain we saw people converging in front of rock-a-feller chapel for fred olmsted's birthday. it was a ticketed event but they said we could crash it. we played green erratic ball on the lawn and listened for minutes but it was boring and they only talked about the baron endower so we lickety split. somehow i know they either didn't speak of the land grabber obama, or they spoke of him as a latter day baron endower who takes and gives back in spades of dubious grift.
