okay, so i totally lied
August 29th, 2001okay, so i totally lied
my day wasnt all sugar and spice. some of it was frightening. like this.
i was waiting to catch the BSL home [after a day of malling it up]. out of the corner of my eye, i saw this guy, a rather large bald white frat kind [i imagined up a lifestyle; he listened to 311 and read nothing] remove a pair of nunchucks from his bookbag. he begins to beat the shit out of these two guys. they manage to escape, heading down to the platform. a stand off ensues, but i didnt see any of it as i was standing upstairs, the alarms of the transit police blaring into my ears. stupidly, i tried dialing 911 on my mobile phone, but they dont work underground.
anyway, the train was coming and i snuck down the other side of the stairs. the crazy nunchuck frat guy tries to get on the train. as soon as he thought he was making a clear escape, the transit police come and book this motherfucker.
shaken, the train closed its doors and made its way home. i sat and thought damn, what if that got worse? i mean, i didnt know he was carrying a weapon in his bag, what else did he have in there? the idea of getting both of my bikes fixed [now both have flats] seemed like a smarter one.
