I have to add that most policeman are great people and doing things that
at times are scary as hell. They are well trained and will give you the
shirt off their backs if the circumstances call for it. Mall cops are
not policemen, although they could be wannabes. The really scary thing
is that they are licensed to carry a firearm. They have little of the
training, very little of the experience and at Holiday time are probably
overworked as well. That is not to excuse the paranoia that a lot of
people have or the exaggerated sense of their rights. Pushing back in
either case is not going to win anything. A coupla deep breaths and a
calm explanation probably gets you more, regardless of who is doing the
stopping.

Chicago's football team had a mechanical delay on their flight to
Baltimore yesterday.
The airport closed them out. They are going to try again today for
Sunday's game.
Here's a shot from this morning's outing...

Saturday morning, cold and bright outside, coffee sinking in, just a few
thoughts.
The weather is the same here. I'm going to take a walk with my
camera, have a coffee at my favorite cafe, do some Christmas shopping
and shoot some pictures.
;-)
cheers,
frank
