I like these colorful trolleys. I played sixteen inch softball in Chicago. Swing and miss. The umpire says “strike one. You’re out” I argued, “I thought I had two more strikes.” And the umpire says, “strike four!” just like that. But I like these trolleys they remind me of my youth in France in the countryside. Sometimes my stories show my age a bit. I was just a boy in the wheat field and my father had a scythe and was working the wheat field and I saw a man rubbing his temples and he had fatigues and was folding a parachute. And I asked, astonished, “Are you a paratrooper?” “Yes”, he spoke, “I am paratrooper”.

I’ll take comments like these over the rantings of Ivy League professors who gentrified Clark Park and are now claiming to be deeply concerned with the plight of poor folk EVERY SINGLE DAY
