BAG CHECK
One of the mainstays of post-9/11 New York is the bag check tables set up at various subway stations. The other day I had my first bag checked. I thought it was interesting how they got me to do it. The two cops kindly asked, "Would you like to do a bag check today?" But they said it like they were asking if I wanted to try a free sample of their mocha latte. They were so nice about it that I had to say "Sure, sounds good!" The bag check ensued, along with a conversation about the virtues of my bag brand, Manhattan Portage. The NYPD: fighting terrorism with a smile.
