Saves the day.

At the Kensico Dam Plaza this afternoon, right in front of the bench where we were sitting and watching an approaching thunderstorm, a Japanese mother started beating her (maybe) 12-month-old son in the arm. While yelling in fear. After ten seconds or so, she switched tactics and started scraping at his arm furiously with a magazine pulled from her purse. Then they took off.

Since the kid was wearing long sleeves, and mostly just toddling along up to that moment, we figured something had attached itself to him. Sure enough, we found this little guy at the scene of the crime:



Completely undamaged. So who won this round?
