The night the lights went out in Paris

Another tragedy, but this one apparently avoided ... so far ... :

You must read the story. It is well worth it. And now I'm wondering, beneath the barcodes and 60w BELL bulb labels, are we seeing a map of the nefarious and unlawful procurement of the contraband? Just peeping through at various spots. Maybe he will tell; maybe not. But in any case, thank you for this great piece, Dean!

Somehow the bell rang and I thought of you.  And actually the story is not far from the truth.  I could never make up a story like this one!

I'm happy I ran into this. Thanks for blogging, and for everyone's comments.

And yes Amy, I do have spy wear, but you con't see it.
