A big mystery: Startup PLAiR Raises $2.1 Million for Some Damn Thing It Won
 
I had the most interesting night at the nail salon tonight.....My mother and I go every Wednesday. Tonight we got there and this creepy guy was standing outside. He asked if they did massage and we told him we weren't sure if they did them for men. So we walked in and he proceeded to stay outside and occasionally look in and stare. Then he would walk away, come back, look in, have a smoke, look in....creepy. I'm not easily creeped out but he put my creep-o-meter into overdrive. The two women doing our nails weren't happy either. So the owner got up and locked the door. Then the guy left. We all breathed a sigh of relief....for about 5 minutes. Then he was back. He had left to go get a burger at BK across the street and was now eating in his car, staring at us. That was it. I called the police and explained why I was calling. The dispatcher was very nice and not patronizing. Asked about the guy and what he was driving. 10 minutes later they showed up. 20 minutes later (after a sobriety test that we watched through the window) the creepy man left in handcuffs. The officer that came in was very nice and said 'you did the right thing'. Damn, I wish I knew what creepy-man was booked on!!
(yes, some of you saw this in the other Watering Hole, but I know our friends in here would get a kick out of it too) :D
