BLOG#7 Smiling Faces

Smiling Faces,sometimes pretend to be your friend. Are the lyrics of an early 70's sond=g that is as relavant today as it was then and for 1000's of years preceeding it release as a song.
I showed my hack license to a friend and someone I know for many years was sitting beside him took the license and then proceeded to memorize m info. I took it back and took the high ground by asking him questions that made him think of answers. First it was difficult but I was able to pull him away from reciting the name over and over in his head. I could actually see the process. Then I made him ingage in a quibble about the price of his van and then I made him add the cost of a gallon of anti freeze per day. What the weekly and monthly cost would be. By the time he finished with my questions he could no longer remember the correct spelling of my name. Had he not pulled out his phone to put my name in I would not have been sure that thats what he was up to.
Then I took the street. Fuck low ground, I told him that low life black hearted people that gossiped and had their noses in other people bussiness and up their asses was the reason I was looking to move from this neighborhood.
This is a guy that I've always treated with respect. Since he's always with his wife I figure he really doesn't have any real friends. And when I look at him critically I gather that there was no good reason for him to get my incidentals. I mean there aint a valid reason in the world the memorize my name, etc. With one son in prison, upstate. Another on the streets panhandling money by pretending to be disable. Wheelchair and all.The third son in the ground and a daughter you never see but has a rep for being good on the computer, I'd say I needed to make that piece of shit get confused before I confronted him. And then blow him and his dumb ass wife a new asshole. I say it plural cause the both of then are so stuck together they probably use the same one to save.
I accept responsibility for being lax about my credentials. But honestly, Who would expect such crap from people that you know for almost 30 years? Anyone who is on the ball! That means me from now on!
