LATIN STEPS
On Friday night, my room-
mate and I decided to take a
night off from going out. We
opened our screen door that
opens to a sidewalk, felt the
cool night breeze, and watched
a little late night TV, the sound
of which mingled with the
clipped cadence of high heels
heading to the nearest party
and. renditions of "Lollipop"
being shouted in the streets.
All of a sudden, though,
pounding interrupted our
somewhat serenity. We looked
up to see an unfamiliar face
smooshed against the window
asking, "Do you know where
Michigan Ave is?"
Taken aback, we gave each
other looks. She repeated, "Do
you know where Michigan Ave
is? Can you look it up?" Recov-
ering our senses, we invited
them in.

a lot of drunken lovespeak,

we wrote them directions and
sent them on their way. On
their way out, I saw that their
shoes were sitting just outside
the door. When I commented,
they said they didn't want to
get our apartment dirty. We
were stunned.
Here's to you, well-man-
nered drunks: your mothers
would be proud. Sort of.

Pizza perils
I was hungry, so I biked to
Cottage Inn and got a loaded
deep-dish pizza. I was no more
than ten feet out of the park-
ing lot when my handlebar
grip popped off, launching me
and my prize into the middle
of Packard. As I was gathering
my bearings and dragging my
bike to the curb, a car ran over
my precious pizza.
Completely distraught but
still starving, I trudged back
inside to order another pizza.
Until I realized I didn't have.
any more money on me.
I had resigned myself to
going home empty-handed and
empty-stomached, when the
kind soul behind the counter
told me, "Your pizza will be
ready in ten minutes." I polite-
ly refused, and she politely
reiterated:
Exuberant at my fortune,
I rode the bike home and ran
back to Cottage Inn to pick
up my replacement. It was the
most delicious pizza I have
ever eaten.

India is now the first coun-

crime using evidence from

in question and is deemed to be
promising but highly contro-
