I was nineteen years old and living in Ocean City, Md. After work one night I was supposed to meet up with a bunch of friends at a coffee shop near the board walk. When I arrived a drunken black man who I had never seen before asked me for a cigarette. (I was the first to arrive) I gave him one and he beckoned me to sit with him at his table, I obliged. From where I was sitting (across from him about three feet away) I could smell the booze permeating from his breath. He babbled incoherently and I did a lot of nodding but when my friends showed up and I got up from the table this man called me by my full name (which no one in that town even knew, I went by a nickname) and told me he would see me around. To this day I am still a little freaked out by that incident as I have no logical way to explain it. I did not work with the public so he could not have known me from work, and as I stated I had never seen him before, I have never seen him since. Any thoughts?
