My little city-town is known neither for its taxicabs nor its catcalls.

So forgive me if I seem a bit puzzled today, having walked up the street past two groups of people in the midst of a taxi hail-off and then back down the street, past a man who actually whistled and drawled "yummy" as my friend and I passed by.

So where am I today? I knew I should have taken that left turn at Albuquerque.
