As many of you know, I install window tint on flat glass for a living. In my never ending journey to cover the tristate area in protective film, I tend to have alot of strange and wonderful adventures and experiances. Well, let me catch you all up on my meaningless meanderings.
All last week Ive been downtown at the Carew Tower filming glass in vacant shops so people wont see the empty spaces so clearly. My boss was helping and we finnished this part last night about 8:00. We were standing in a parking lot discussing the next days work and general bsing about that job when this tall lanky black guy walked up to us. I could tell from his gait that he was a crack head and sure as shit clings to my butthair he started panhandling my boss. He told him that he used to play for Arizona and fell on hard times and only had a quarter to get on the bus. After a few stern "NO"s from my boss, the cracked out bum turned to me. To understand my frame of mind, I was hopped up on energy drinks and smoothies and not in the best of moods. I wasnt more than 6 feet from the boss when this guy starts begging for loose change from me. Now, he only has a dime to make a phone call and he played for UC.
That was my cue to morph into Krazy Kevin. I went off on him. I said that I worked hard for a living and barely got by and that my boss was a tightass that made me pay for my own parking and that it was an insult to me to be asked to give what little cash I had left to some worthless athelte who couldnt keep his mouth off the crack pipe. "But I played for UC aint that worth something?" he asked. At that point I could have killed this dude and not had a bit of remorse. I replied with a rather loud voice "I dont give a fuck about UC, they suck and your a prime example why. besides, I root for UK"
"Im going to my van and getting a big stick and beating you black and blue. "
He actualy took a couple of steps toward my van with my when I turned and said"Youre allready halfway there so Ill just beat you till your blue. " I dont think he belived me till I pulled out a fiberglass 4 foot straight edge . At that point he must have realized that I wasnt going to give him tree fitty and ran.
I honestly didnt think a crackhead had that much energy to run that fast unless there was a free sample of crack at the end of the block.
My boss watched the whole thing and the only thing he could say was "I really thought you were going to hit him.
So if anyone sees Kareem around downtown panhandling, let him know that theres a big stick waiting with his name on it.
