I too now know the magic of "The Chili Guy".
Last night after work I went to The Garment District with Yao in Cambridge to find a shirt and satchel for my Indiana Jones costume. The Garment District is a huge clothing and costume store and they have this room called "Dollar a pound" where there is a pile of jumbled up clothing and some other fabric items thrown on the floor and you pick stuff up for a dollar a pound, I did find a shirt and actually a decent pair of old brown boots that would work for Indiana Jones (and they were in my size.) No Satchel yet, I did find a satchel that was in an army surplus store for $23 but I figured I would look in other places first for something cheaper and maybe used.
After that I went to Cornwall's Tavern in Kenmore Square, I had a Margarita and I think it's called a Lemon Shot, basically it's a shot of some kind of clear alcohol and after the shot you immediately suck on a slice of lemon and it tastes like chocolate cake....it was amazing, I also played a round of pool with Yao and his friends Dan and Amanda. Yao was on fire.....and not on my team. Shortest game of pool I've ever played...damn him.
I didn't stay there long, I'd say it was around 9:30 when I left because I still had to get my car in Brookline and drive back to Marlborough. So Kenmore station is right outside Cornwall's. I sat there and waited for the D-Train to come when a familiar looking man caught my eye. He was a large bearded homeless man and he looked liked photos I've seen of "The Chili Guy" from Toucher and Rich website on WBCN. Which is a radio show I listen too everyday (link will take you too some Chili Guy audio clips). I thought to myself.... "It's gotta be him....but I need to hear his voice for certain." After digging through the trash he walked over to in front of me where I was sitting, stood there smiled at me with an infectious smile you would expect to see from Santa Clause, muttered something inaudible (in a friendly way) and walked away. All was made right in the world for that magical moment. It was him for sure! I would have given him some money if my train didn't arrive as he walked away, The Chili Guy made my day.
