Dear Miss Manners,
What has become of public decency?  It seems that everywhere I go, I spy people spitting, putting on make-up, or even shaving their legs!! Why do people insist on doing these things where they are clearly visible to anyone who might be looking in their direction? Surely they must have bathrooms of their own. People should think of the children!

Gentle Reader,
You must be quite eagle-eyed to be observing all these activities. The sad fact is that many people think that, even though they are in a public locale, nobody actually sees them. Miss Manners is sure that you would never dream of making such an error, and that your behavior outside the confines of your own lavatory is quite impeccable. As to others, Miss Manners will not try to stop your picking them out from the crowd, but reminds you that everyone has a special place.

Dear Miss Manners,
You wouldn't believe what I saw at Revere on Saturday! Not only was somebody trying to sun himself during the winter, but he was actually performing personal acts of dental hygiene on the boardwalk! I must admit, this so incited me that I grabbed the floss from his hands, and told him that if I ever saw him doing something like this again, I'd wrap the floss around his throat and stop him from exposing his gums in public ever again.

I realize that this was a severe breach of etiquette, and I can only blame the (understandable) agitation from which I was suffering. Now I understand that the poor, poorly socialized man has been murdered, and MY name has been brought up as a suspect!! Of course I explained that at the time of the murder I was in Building 64, explaining to those boors that hacking “Transparent Horizons” showed great disrespect for a lady sculptor. And they had the audacity to doubt my veracity! What's a properly brought up girl to do?

Gentle Reader,
Miss Manners would advise retaining a good lawyer.
