Why Church St is Great


Last night we were walking down to Flatbread for a beer.  Of course coming the other direction was a crazy dude most likely on some sort of drugs.  He yelled at me for a little bit and requested that I say P-L-E-A-S-E.  Not sure for what.  We tried not to make eye contact and just slip by.  Then he threw a stick at my buddy T-Pain.  Sure why not.  He was out yelling at pedestrians in front of Starbucks today.  You go crazy guy!

Today we were heading down to grab some lunch.  Coming towards us was a kid who looked straight out of School Ties.  He had nerdy glasses, a sport coat, slacks, and a green and blue striped prep school tie.  Of course he stared us down while singing loudly the Peter Tosh classic Legalize It.  Ok, sure.  Last time we would run into our pal Smokey Joe?  Hell no!  In the lobby of our building we were waiting for the elevator when our pal came cruising through the building (needless to say we do not have any security). This time he claimed he was fighting to legalize pot.  I said "you go chief", which pleased our friend.  He exclaimed "I am always fighting the fight!". Possibly trying to legalize acid as well?  Fantastic.

No Big Red sightings.  Yet...
