I would think that a psychiatrist that specializes in the criminally insane would be more appropriate.

Sphere Oh, I'm sure the folks in the FBI Behavioral Sciences Unit (the "Silence of the Lambs" people & where Scully of the "X-Files" used to work) would be able come up with some pretty funky profiles on many of us... I thought about this today, Sphere, as a friend and I ended up on the site of a bomb scare in the heart of DC today - I very quietly freaked out as the bomb squad detonated a briefcase in the middle of Dupont Circle. The FBI showed up, as did the Secret Service. There was police tape, ambulances, and fire trucks everywhere. As I silently tried to calculate how far glass shards can fly, part of my brain paused on this post. Funny how the mind works. Most of the people hanging around wanted to know where the news cameras were. Creepy! Strangely, in the middle of all this, a wildly flamboyant couple walked up to me and one of them said, "Excuse me - you look like you belong here - do you know where the Pleasure Chest is?" (The Pleasure Chest is a gift store specializing in, um... rather adult toys...) "Oh, of course," I answer very helpfully. "It's two blocks up, right next to the leather fetish shop." (No, I don't frequent either of these places, I'm just very observant.) "See," said Man 1 to Man 2, "I told you she'd know!" Said Man 2 to Man 1, "What the hell's going on here?" Man 1 to Man 2, "Um... bomb scare?" Man 2 to Man 1, "Oh... whatever..." With that, they both shrugged, and they were off. Two things: 1) are we all so jaded that a bomb scare is a casual event? and, 2) I'd love to know what I'm doing/wearing that anyone would automatically assume that I know the directions to the local adult toy store?!?!? Rethinking my wardrobe and trying to stay warm in the chilly air... Cheers, Melissa Melissa R. Jordan Special Projects Manager International Programs Office Goodwill Industries International, Inc.
