a guy on the city bus today explained to me that it was unconstitutional that only verizon phones work in the metro. this is because, according to him, it violates his first amendment rights. he told me how the bombings in london illustrated his point: those people had a constitutional right to call their families in the emergency. he talked very loudly so the whole bus could hear, then told me how he is an intern at a conservative think tank.

i am not making this up. he did stop talking, however, when the person we both know (one of the students H supervises, who he was sitting with) told him i was in law school. i did not say a word, although i thought many words.

oh, he was wearing a bow tie too.
