Coming home to a SWAT team blocking your city block is not fun. (I don't live in a bad part of town, either, but holy cow. This was scary.) The riot gas the Cambridge cops use seems to be a *lovely* mixture of Binaca breath spray and CS gas. It does not smell pretty. I want to fall over — and I'd wanted to long before *I* came home to that.
I think of this more as my "current events" blog. I'll digress, I'll over-research, I'll wander off the topic entirely, but what inspires me to post in this blog (inspires?) is something I read in my RSS reader, or hear about in the news or whatever else like that. I have fun here, and tend to mock everyone with power, a common affectation for those of us who have no power whatsoever.
