Things I Saw Today

I saw some neat things today that I thought I would share.

- A man on 12th Street who was leaving a newspaper on every doorstep. He had the papers at one hand, the plastic bags at the other, and he bagged and dropped these papers with machinelike rapidity. I couldn't look away.

- Two people were walking dogs, one large and white and the other small and fluffy. (The dogs, not the walkers.) They allowed their dogs to mingle, and the larger dog was clearly intimidated by the smaller dog. Neat.

- Dozens of boxes of useless paper that will be stored (at cost) for seven years, never recalled, and finally destroyed.
