I had been sitting in the food court when I was nearly hit by falling boxes. Offering to help triggered an outburst from an angry young woman. "What, you see a cripple and think you have to help? What do you know about handicaps? Why don't you shut up and leave me alone!" she screamed. The entire food court was silent. I didn't respond, just got my cane from a chair where I'd left it. As I was leaving the food court I heard, "Please stop!" The words weren't quite so angry now.

For the first time, I failed to eliminate a target! / (Reviews)

The Morning After for young Christy began with dry heaves, a splitting headache and the inside of a mouth that tasted like a kitty litter box.
