Blind Man Steals NETFLIX!

Really, I do believe I witnessed a blind man taking off with someone's Netflix, which boggled my mind.
1st thought: He's a blind man.
2nd: With a Netflix envelope.
3rd: How is he going to watch a movie being blind, does he just enjoy listening to them?
4th: This is all wrong, he's blind!
5th: Who walks around with a netflix envelope? The whole point is there mailed to your house, so you don't have to leave. 6th: My GOD, HE STOLE IT!
7th: Maybe he's not blind.
8th: If he's not blind, why does he have a giant blind man steel stick and why is he waving it back and forth in front of him while he walks with this netflix envelope that he may or may not have taken from someone's mailbox!
9th: Crap! I almost hit the car in front of me staring at that man that may or may not be blind walking with a possibly stolen netflix...
So that was the most interesting thing I saw today. Which isn't too bad, I really did find that to be intriguing. I wish I had been able to interview the man, to find out the real story. Maybe I should start doing things like that, just pulling over while driving so I can randomly interview people like that. I'm sure it wouldn't have looked bad, some guy (me) quickly pulling over in a pickup truck and hopping out to stop an old blind man, badgering him with questions excitedly as he cowers in fear and then, with suprising speed, starts to repeatedly whack me with his giant metal blind man stick.
ps. I now question whether the blind man stick was in fact steel as I had originally stated, it seems to make more sense if it were aluminum, since that is a much lighter, more practical stick. Thus the change in description from "steel" to the more generic "metal".

Damned blind men stealing peoples' netflix packages.

As long as it wasn't mine, though, I am content to stand idly by.

And, methinks, it may be best that you did not approach the man. I mean - if he WAS stealing someones netflix, he probably wished to get away with said plunder. And he WAS carrying a stick made of an unknown metal substance. Perhaps it wasn't a walking stick, but actually a beating stick....?

Proceed with caution, my boy. And, if you do end up interviewing people on the fringes of society, do remember to bring a camera. Video footage is always welcome.
