...with swastikas. Harry Chapin's midnight watchman from "A Better Place to Be" gone Nazi...and you thought he was just lonely...

Berlin (Connecticutt) man charged with anti-Semitic graffiti

Police have charged a Berlin man with more than a dozen hate crimes against the local Jewish community while working as a security guard.

Police say Eric Milne was arrested last night at his home on charges that he wrote slurs aimed at the Jewish community each night as he made his security rounds.

Police say the 30-year-old Milne was employed to secure a West Hartford building that houses The Jewish Ledger, Israel Bonds and Hadassah, a women's organization.

Milne was arrested on charges of 17 counts of intimidation based on bigotry or bias, 17 counts of desecration of property, 17 counts of breach of peace and criminal mischief...

"A Better Place to Be" Amazing lyric to this song you use as a reference. It's like a post modernist (Post apocalyptic?) version of T.S.Elliot's poems on loneliness.

I would be great to hear this song.
Thank you for the link.

My God, someone else who remembers Harry Chapin!

(Never liked that song much. "I Wanna Sing A Love Song" and "W.O.L.D." are more my speed.)

g'mar chatima tova, Sol!

respectfully,
Daniel in Brookline
