This is unbelievable. After watching "Boxers and Ballerinas" at the Film Fest today, I went to Alesci's for some post-movie beer. When I needed to add money to the meter, some guy tried to scam me. Remember back in September when a guy tried to scam me on the Jennings Freeway about being from Detroit ("Sterling" he said) and he was down here to get a breathing machine and needed gas money? Well, that same guy tried to scam me this afternoon with the same story. So there I was on Huron, and I told the guy, "You know something. You tried to pull the same shit on me on the Jennings Freeway one day last year. It was you!!!" Then I repeatedly yelled at him, "It was you!!!" until he went around the corner of the Winking Lizard and down Prospect. I felt like the Old Lady on 47th Street from "Marathon Man" yelling, "Szell! Szell! Szell!"
