20th and Idlywyld. Damien likes to run between cars on the street checking out the local pawn shops for good deals while I surf the internet on some dude’s laptop that I steal.

Crazy. Obviously it makes for a good story that works on people. Good on ya for standing up to the scam. It’s too bad that this is going on as the only people it’s really going to hurt are the ones who legitimately need help as now people are going to be less trusting.

Same experience just outside Sears downtown Saskatoon. Young aboriginal fella (dressed in fashionable and expensive gangster-like clothes), very friendly, stopped me and asked me if I had a jerry can. He said he was from a reserve up north, out of gas, his wife was expecting and their car was stuck on Idylwyld.

Told me that everyone he met in Saskatoon had been rude to him up until that point and that I was the friendliest person he’d come across. Said that he even offered to put up his cell phone for colateral at the gas station in order to get some gas but they refused. Asked me if I would buy his Iphone in exchange for some gas money, but I wasn’t having it.

He asked me if I had anything at all to give him, told him no, but that he might have better luck outside the food court doors of the Midtown Mall. He immediately changed his tune and stormed off. That’s when I knew he was trying to scam me.

Since then, I’ve heard of two people in my office that have been approached by this man around the Galaxy Cinemas downtown. Don’t fall for this guy, it’s all an act!

What seems to be the attraction of the corner house – so many stories!

LOL! Awesome. The other week my 90 year old grandparents asked me if I could tap into their neighbour’s cable TV for them. “Oh, and it has a lot of static too, so can you also clean that up while I you are doing that?”
