\n police trying to investigate the incident. Reportedly, two teenage
\n girls told police that Simpson hit them in the face, but they declined
\n to press

\n the top ten is in number and percentage of foreign students enrolled,
\n and they fit the BU profile in spades. We have more than our fair share
\n of Pinochets, Allendes, Al Saud’s and freshly minted Russian megamillionaires.
\n Many of our students sport wristwatches worth more than the White Whale, our car.<\/p>\n
\n pulling a Uey on Commonwealth Avenue in front of our office through a
\n yellow light. It must be noted that the Dowbrigade is normally a VERY
\n careful driver due to other exotic habits which could turn a routine
\n traffic stop into an expensive and traumatic encounter with the criminal
\n justice system. We wouldn’t have even gone through a YELLOW light if
\n we hadn’t been late for the semester startup meeting and distracted by
\n an outrageous comment by that moron Howard Stern, coincidentally a BU
\n Grad and an old customer of the Dowbrigade back in the day when Stern hung out on the very
\n corner where yesterday’s infraction occurred. But that’s a story for another time.<\/p>\n
\n and registration, and we managed to flash our BU ID in the process of
\n turning over the other paper and plastic. Mid-30’s and paunchy, not very
\n neat but with a worn and weary humanity even in yesterday’s 8 degree weather, he asked
\n in which branch of the BU behemoth we worked. We admitted to working with
\n the aliens.<\/p>\n
\n during which we kept the windows cracked, the motor running and the heater
\n up high, he returned and started chatting us up. First he told us that
\n BU was pressing the Boston Police to write more tickets on campus, and bigger fines,
\n in order to instill a sense of automotive respect for the laws of a civilized
\n society. It seems that the privileged rich kids in their
\n BMW’s and Mercedes act like that the traffic laws were written only for the rest
\n of the peons, and write off parking and traffic fines as one more cost
\n of doing business, the business in this case consisting of using Daddy’s money to get through college
\n with the least amount of physical and mental effort possible.<\/p>\n
\n that all of my paperwork checked out, no warrants out for my arrest,
\n registration and inspection in order and that therefore he was forgoing
\n what would have been a $150 dollar fine and those odious points on the
\n insidious auto insurance scam scale which would have cost over a grand
\n during their 4 year half-life, and instead would issue us a warning.<\/p>\n
\n into a diatribe against FOREIGN STUDENTS who he said were the worst of
\n the worst, both because they were uniformly ignorant of local traffic
\n laws and regulations and because they were so rich and spoiled that
\n they practically laughed in his face when he wrote them up. The poor guy couldn’t
\n get no respect. We smiled sympathetically and nodded our head,
\n anxious to get into the meeting which had started ten or fifteen minutes ago.<\/p>\n
\n behavior in an officer of the law, he asked us how business was. When we mentioned that we had lost
\n a lot of our students lately to schools in England and Australia, he
\n changed course again and left us with the following joke:<\/p>\n
\n oldest and finest University and was dismayed to discover that he was
\n required to attend an orientation session. "There must be some mistake."
\n he protested indignantly to his academic advisor, "I did not come here
\n to be Oriented! I am already Oriented! I came here to be Oxidized!"<\/p>\n
\n of the next miscreant. Marveling at a Boston beat cop who could tell
\n an English ESL joke and noting that we had been pulled over directly
\n into a legal metered parking space a half block from our office, we popped
\n 8 quarters into the damn machine and rushed off to our meeting.<\/p>\n
