Place: 7-Eleven (Hollywood Bl nr Van Ness)
Celeb: Chief of Police, William Bratton

I don't often go to any 7-Eleven but lately I'm prone to drop in to grab a drink or go next door for a late night bite at Yai Thai. Tonight I intend to get a 7-Up but instead get a Nature's Best "Berry Blast" and Clamato. I purchase the items and proceed to exit when Bratton walks in. I'm good with faces so know it's him though he looks more tired than his press shots. Also doesn't hurt that he's wearing a LAPD jersey. Don't know what he bought but outside, a black towncar with a female driver who had shiny cuffs on her left hip was standing outside waiting for him. I want to ask him about the New Yorker article I read on his program to tackle petty crimes to combat the culture of lawlessness that lead to bigger crimes but don't bother. I also feel my petty urge whell up at grabbing a cops gun but realize he's not packing tonight. Who'd mess with the head honcho of the LAPD?
