- I just finished reading in yesterday's Bellevue Journal-American about
- the guy who ripped off three Cadillacs (an Allante, an Eldorado, and a
- stretch limo, respectively) from the local Caddy dealer over the weekend:
-
- "the man, who calls himself 'Tabatha' and is known for aggressive panhandling
- and cross-dressing, sometimes in a white dress with a Davy Crockett cap atop a
- white turban..." apparently locked himself out of the first Caddy and wrecked
- the second.
-
- According to the paper the guy wants to be a cop.
-
- This story for some strange reason reminded me of the story in the Seattle
- Times last week about the cabbie who just shot one of his fares to death
- when the guy, coming up $5 short on the fare when he got home, went into
- the house and came back out bearing a gun.
-
- According to the story this driver has shot three fares within the last
- year. He shot the first one when the passenger "attacked him with a beer
- can".
-
- Will someone please explain how you can attack someone with a beer can?
- I must have been home sick the day they taught that at school.
-
- I don't know whether any of these people is Finerty.
