Words on the street

People say sort of random things to us on the street. Like "you're jogging!" when they see me jogging or "American dollars" when we're downtown (because they want us to change money - which we don't do - John always says "we're not Americans - we're Canadian!") The other day someone started winking at us and smiling. He was trying to sell a hose to siphon off fuel from cars. John and I looked at each other and just started laughing. It's not exactly the kind of purchase we're looking for. One of my favourites was the guy who tried to sell us a shoe. It was a nice one - and very clean - but what are you going to do with ONE shoe?
