A DEMENTED EASTER BUNNY ... AT 7TH AND MONTANA!


Cheers erupted at 7th and Montana this morning as the man known locally as the "One-Eyed Bandit" for his tendency to wear a sporty orange bandanna covering one eye made the scene after a brief hiatus. As anyone who knows the "Bandit" can tell you, he is a master of disguise. When he's not wearing his signature bandanna, he's been known to sport underpants on his head (October 2008), a frycook's cap (June 2008) and a purple pillbox (December 2007). Today, he wore none of those things. Instead, he crouched on the sidewalk for quite some time in what appeared to be a passable imitation of Jedi Master Yoda. "Crazy must he be ... hmmm," I said to no one in particular as the Bandit maintained his crouching position. "I don't know how you even sit like that," said Bob. "Sitting is easy," quipped Joyce, "It's getting up that's the problem." For his part, the Bandit remained oblivious. Rumor has it he was trying to lay an Easter Egg ...!

Or maybe he was waiting for a partner in a game of leapfrog! He seems to have assumed the position.

He looks shorter. Has he lost weight?

He's not...no, he couldn't be....but maybe...is he related to Captain underpants?
