So we have a guy here at my workplace working on a collection of bass amps that had a malfunction. He from England and this is his first time to the States. I went out with him on Saturday night, happily giving him the impression that the US is comprised mostly of badly dressed gamblers driving vintage cars. He said that all he hears about America is violence. I assured him that it's not all bad, just depend where you are, all the news is bad news, blah blah. About twenty minutes after this particular conversation a rabid cat fight breaks out in the middle of Virginia St. maybe half a block away from us, two girls dragging another out of a car and proceeding to pull hair and break glass for a good five minutes before a police person intervenes with a taser. Ah, home sweet home.
