TALES FROM THE CITY

A Real Kick

April 12, 2009

My wife, 4-year-old son, and I were walking down Mass. Ave in Cambridge and stopped to look at two proud-looking motorcycle cops parked in front of Keefe Funeral Home. Our son looked up at the imposing figures, who were fitted with gleaming over-the-calf boots, and said "nice boots." One officer beamed and thanked him for noticing. Our son then followed with, "My mom has a pair just like them," to which the deflated but self-effacing officer said, "You really know how to hit a guy where it hurts."
