[QUOTE="RidgeHunter, post: 1294966, member: 4319"] Imma tell a story too! I wanna fit in! I've woked in some ghetto-ey areas (as ghetto-ey as OK gets anyways), so I'm used to the usual hustle and bustle of street characters. The closest I ever has someone sneak up on me was at QT in south Tulsa, not the ghetto. I'm pumping gas, and was obviously no paying attentipn to my surroundings as well as I should have. I had my truck door open and was leaning inside looking at some paperwork or something. I feel a presence behind me, and turn around. I'm staring directly into the chest of some beast of a dude. I'm 5-11. He was a big boy. He somehow snuck into this cube I had formed with my truck door, gas pump and hose. He said [I]"Aaay brother, can I get a light?"[/I] I don't smoke, but I always have lighters everywhere. He was sending off some bells that something wasn't right. I said in a loud voice [I]"Yeah man, I think I got one right here."[/I] Loud enough I got the closest dude to me a couple pumps away to start watching (my goal). I gave him the lighter, he unwraps a brand new pack of Pall Malls he had just bought. Who smokes and doesn't carry a lighter? Who buys a brand new pack of cigs and doesn't buy a lighter to smoke the rest after the first one I let him light? It didn't add up. Dude next to me must have thought it was weird too, he walked closer and stared at us. Big Broseph hands me my lighter, sticks his Pall Malls in his shirt pocket and wanders off to a truck his buddy was driving idling halfway across the lot (again, buddy not have a light? No lighter in the truck dash?). I gave eyewitness dude a "thank you wave" and left. I STILL have a gut feeling that dude wanted more than a light (out of dozens if not hundreds of times I've been approached, this was way different). I wonder how it would have went down if not for eyewitness dude? [/QUOTE]
