Bugs

Praying mantises’ companionship, Big Daddy, radio-controlled green beetles

A Boy Scout, an old friend, an excellent craftsman

A first-time voter, a calm mother, a girl who wouldn’t be bullied

Open-mike for poets, a small toy xylophone, a six-foot submarine sandwich

A battered wife, a troubled cousin, an intent reader

An aroused Ferris-wheel operator, a guest with a penchant for eavesdropping, a mother with a botched suicide attempt

An overwhelmed train traveler, an Interrail passenger using a Third Reich map, a map aficionado

The most-feared policeman in the county, three-strikes defendants, an unforgettable Marshall

Someone who should have listened to her intuition, a beautiful brunette, a cat woman

“Mask her!”, “No nemina!”, “He’s beating her up again”
