middle, upper middle municipality. Few working class.

Anyway, I'm on hall patrol. Kid comes walking down the hall, singing to himself,

"I want to live a life of danger,
I want to be an airborn ranger.

interesting contrast. 15 years later, hall patrol, Jersey City public schools.

"N... be fast,
bullet be faster.


I have no conclusion to offer. Maybe just that hall patrol isn't such a waste of time if you pay attention to what's going on around you.

Come to think on it. I do have bunches of stories about hall patrol. Some day, when I have more time.
