There is this crazy dude who lives by the pond where we take our daily walk. He only appears at intervals long enough for me to forget he exists. In this way he maximizes his capacity to surprise the shit out of me.
Late last summer he came out of the little house where he lives and screamed,
" HEY MAN! 'R2D2' "
He actually made air quotes. He is a really big dude and when he yells at me he shatters the arcadian calm of my quiet little neighborhood.
The spring before that he came jogging up beside me and asked to pat my dog. This was pre- Cisco; just me and Shiva. He didn't seem crazy at all until he gingerly reached out and gave Shiva a quick touch on the back and ran away.
Yesterday he emerged into the cold to holler
"ASS DISPLAYED IS ASS LOST!"
This cracked up Melanie who was walking Shiva with me and Cisco.
I don't like this guy much, but I am not worried because Cisco is learning the ancient martial art of Mop-Fu:

Few know the depth and power of Mop-Fu. Cisco has skills--Mad Skillz. Don't turn your back.
And don't allow him anywhere near someone with a full head of dredlocks. Or a car wash.
