Blasphemous though it may be to admit this in the Spectator, I love Bwog’s series “Overheard.” I love it because 1.) it makes me feel better about my own penchant for eavesdropping, and 2.) it provides us with such gems as this:
“Little kid, maybe 13 years old, wearing a backpack walking with classmates. With a concerned look at the ashtrays outside of Hamilton: ‘I know there’s a lot of peer pressure at college, but why does everyone have to smoke so much?’”
Good question, kid.
