Watch
your step, folks, there’s a new loon in town.
Meet the Admiral, a man who can’t resist screaming “Old Navy” for no
apparent reason at five-minute intervals.
I first noticed him yesterday, standing at the doorway of Our
Favorite Starbucks. “Old Navy?,” he
asked me. “Gap,” I replied, brushing
passed him. Banana Republic might have
been more appropriate. Twenty minutes
later, he flew into a rage. “OLD NAVY!,”
he shrieked, gesturing wildly and toppling over a trash can. “Take that!,” he continued, throwing a chair
on the sidewalk and kicking someone’s bicycle.
By this point, I had assumed the standard 7th and Montana
Loon position: “Duck your head down and
stare intently at the floor. Don’t make any sudden movements.” “Money, Money, Money!” the Admiral screamed. Neighbor Johnny gave him 50 cents, which
seemed to make matters worse. Starbucks
management called the police, who carted him away faster than you can say
“Urban Outfitters.” He was last seen
shopping for something in stripes …

He sounds like he left the facility too soon, and I'm not talking prison or maybe he had a mental break. I hope he gets the help he needs and prison is not it!
Seems like the same old same old stuff happening at 7th & Montana.
Sounds like to much Pacific Sun!
