Probably means that the man is an Egyptian citizen given that he was an oncologist there. I'd like to know why he thought his stepdaughters were 'dancing on graves.' Is that some sort of new thing the kids are doing these days?

The cops made two arrests that I witnessed, one outside Subia's and one at Van Vorst.

I don't believe anyone here can dispute that helping another fellow human being out is a good thing for society. Whether simply offering a seat up to a pregnant woman, or one carrying a baby, or moving over to allow a young child to simply stand in the front car to enjoy the view from the window....it's everyone's duty as a citizen of humanity to try to be nice to each other, because kindness is infectious, as is nastiness. SO the less nastiness the better for all involved.
Now, on a safety front, pregnant women and fathers/mothers holding small children are already off-balance. Do you really want to contribute to one of them possibly falling, hurting themselves, the child, or the unborn baby when the train jerks about? Simply because you were self-righteously thinking 'bout equality or whether the child is riding free vs. your paid fare?? If an adult male is holding a large, unwieldy package on his torso, (similar to a pregnant woman is) then I would hope that a fellow rider might offer his seat up, as would I, to anyone I see might need some help. Let's not take it all to the women VS men talk, it's not really the point, is it? (for the record, although I always declined because I never really needed the seat, I rode the PATH throughout my pregnancy, rarely being offered a seat, or a pole to hold on to. The handful of times I was offered, was USUALLY by a woman and usually they mentioned they had children, so they were also mothers.) Just because some folks decided to have children, and others did not, is not the point, with child, or childless, we need to think of how we can contribute to the overall happiness and wellbeing of our society, and not try to take on 'tit for tat' or 'not my problem' attitudes.

I think she was calling that shopping lot in its entirety a 'mall.'

This tow truck company is shady as you all know! I stopped in the back of the BJs lot for all of 3 mins to let my kids out at the A Building for a playdate. Yes I do know it was illegal, but I had to drop them off in the lobby and thought it best to hand deliver them into the lobby, and turn around quickly and leave. The driver -- DALE -- saw me running back to my car and as he watched me running and calling to him, he made it a point to look at me while I ran right in front of an approaching light rail train, and continue to hook the car to his tow rig. Now, I know I wasn't stopping to shop in BJs, but I was trying to be a responsible parent and not stop my car during rush hour in front of the A building since there's really no curb there. My kids are young, and I didn't want them walking in by themselves to the lobby.
The main complaint I have with them is that the guy hooked my car up AS I WAS RUNNING UP TO MY CAR. He clearly saw me coming, heard me calling, and witnessed me almost kill myself to reach him, and he hurried to hook the car just so he could be sure to be done by the time I ran back to the vehicle. Which to me, is unnecessarily mean. Here's the kicker--I saw a police car drive by, so I yelled at it and waved to it to stop and intervene. They stopped for about 10 seconds looked back in their rear view mirror, and DROVE OFF!! There's JCPD for you. What concern for their citizens!
