First lines
Experimenting with the eyes can be a very dangerous thing. You can go blind -- or maybe you'll see something no man alive was meant to look upon!
_You better take your money back, mister. Thanks a lot but -- no thanks. I wasn't panhandling, my hat fell off and I was trying to find it on the sidewalk. Thanks again for finding it for me but I think I could have managed. And, no offense, but I can find my way all right without being led._
