Write something and wait expectantly.

| | | Like someone else said, this depends on whether or not I'm alone, what part of town I'm in ( what town I'm in), what vibe I get from them, etc. So far, I'm happy to report that every encounter I can think of (except one involving police) has been a positive one. A few of them I've even maintained contact with - I even had a chance to learn a lot from a couple run-ins with young taggers, one such encounter was only a couple weeks ago. I even took photos of their graffiti and sent it to them later (it wasn't exactly a super secret location or free of graffiti). I occasionally see and chat with them on facebook or various places of common interest. Even though our primary motives are different and I could only trust them to a certain point, it's sometimes interesting to see things from another perspective - even if it sometimes conflicts with my personal feelings on vandalism. Simply put, I learned a lot and enjoyed their company, but I kept my conversation somewhat censured. In return for my photos, I was provided with the security of not being alone in a strange town and building, at night, which was quite welcomed! There were also a couple free beers tossed in my direction and it was altogether a pleasant encounter...

hahaha, this is one of my favorite pastimes. It works beautifully and always lifts my spirits.
| Oh yes, it always brings about a laugh. In recent times it was actually the best thing about the Overbrook Hospital near me. One time we saw a couple walking along the street, who seemed to want to keep their distance. When the dude got closer, I banged against the window I was looking through. He froze, looked up, and was staring at the window I was now hiding right next to. After a few seconds, I brought my hand around and smacked it against the window, hard. This time I kept my hand there. Took him all of a quarter second to nope the fuck out and they both walked away. Eventually they realized we were just fucking with them, and they continued to shoot around. Another time, when I was alone, I saw a group of younger kids walking around the outside, being very obvious. When they had their backs to me I shut a window, which banged fairly loudly. They jumped, a few of the younger guys started whimpering, but the girl they were following didn't want to leave. So I continued to follow them around from inside, when eventually they were in the courtyard of another building. I shook some glass out of a broken window they were walking towards. This made them all take off. But I give them credit, because a short time later I found them outside an open window, trying to figure out if they could maneuver themselves into it. While they were discussing who would go first, I stepped in front of the window, and casually said "You guys are gonna get arrested walking around so blatantly". I got a few screams and they all looked like they were about to shit themselves. Once I stopped laughing I ended up offering to show them an open door so they wouldn't have to climb through the window. Ended up being a pretty cool group of kids. That's by far one of my favorite memories from the place. I just went by the other day and they've begun to abate and empty everything in preparation for demolition. Gonna be a sad day when it's gone.

| Tourists are always fun to play with. Many times I'll stay in the shadows and watch. Had people pass close enough to touch... (sarah McC...)*snicker* Scaring off the kiddies is a public service we owe to the community Exploring ain't a social event but occasionally I will greet someone I meet if they are pro shooters or they pop up. However, people are trouble...
