Wow .. well there you go, I probably saw you and you me many times.. because I was always in and out of there..

I never will forget like 2 days after that incident, being in Dinkytown.. and I was walking by the little Japanese Restaurant.. right across from the drugstore, and looked down the alley and there were all the national guard that had got called in.

Scared me to death, and I looked at those young guys, and they were as scared as I was.

It was one of those epiphany moments where you find yourself in the other persons mindset..
