Adam: I suddenly feel like I'm under the watchful gaze of a predator-like vigilante. Perhaps if I mind my P's and Q's, he'll move along.

There are a lot of us who read books, and often for good reason. I was reading a book at a table in a restaurant, waiting for a friend (they seated me, and it was not busy). When she arrived, I put the book aside. We ate, paid the bill, and walked out the door. As I reached the sidewalk I remembered my book, and returned. Gone.I asked the manager, and he said the bus boys just wipe everything on the table into the tub – water glasses, silverware, and everything else. So, I lost a $10 paperback, instead of an expensive Nook.
