Thanks Reggie. There's nothing else in the book as bizarre (or dangerous) as his "saw bit" but there are some who might think that his constantly asking police officers for a match to LIGHT HIS JOINTS (in front of them) was far weirder. He could have gone to jail for years had any one of the cops clicked in to what was happening.

He might be on the Ed Sullivan show one night, spend ALL the money, and be reduced to busking (or conning) the next day!
