Two days ago we looked out the window and saw a woman lying in the street, shopping bag askew, unconscious. The paramedics were already there and strapped her into a gurney and took her away. Everyone on the street had stopped to look and think "Holy shit, that could have been me." The taxis were backed up on this narrow midtown street but nobody was honking. There wasn't any car pulled over to indicate who had hit her. A man with a large camera appartus leaned over as they lifted her onto the gurney and took a photo.
