As she pulled him through the service door, she turned to me and smiled and winked. That event is one of the reasons I really love New York, must say."

What, you're glad the cops waste their time arresting and cuffing fare-dodgers? Could be worse, I suppose. Over here in lil ol London town it's been known for guys who jump the turnstiles to be shot dead....

Do bad buskers on London Underground run the risk of being shot dead?
