"For my money, Slow Norris is more intriguing: What's he listening to on the radio that he keeps in the little black bag? What else is in the little black bag? Does he only hang out at Gap Kids? Does he dye his own hair, or get it done professionally - and if so, where? Why no sign, no attempted contact with the public? Why such a pained expression all the time? Why does he avoid eye contact?"
Does he still have the attache case? There's a certain profile of homeless who affect the attache case. That would be my first instinct too under similar circumstances. I wonder whether some of the homeless cultivate their distinct personas?
Two other oddballs I've seen - the 65 year-old man in hot pants on Bloor; and the 70 year-old swedish ballerina (usually in tights) who works out at Bally's twice a day, or used to when I was there. Not homeless, but eccentric enough to qualify.
