Date: 2008-12-04 09:53 pm (UTC)I was riding one of the last trains into Alewife from Harvard Square and had the car pretty much to myself. This was at the height of the T paranoia; bag searches, cops in the station, etc. I noticed there was a cardboard box wedged under the seat across the aisle so when a T cop boarded the train at the next stop, I pointed it out.
Cop: *grunts*
*looks at box*
*kicks box with toe of boot*
*grunts*
*wanders off*
Um...yeah. The best security training money can buy right there...
