Out of the Mouths of Babes

Have you seen this story? Brooklyn D.A.: Man Impersonates Dead Mother to Collect $115,000 in Social Security, Rent Subsidies

Our son was watching the news with me Wednesday night. The minute the story started and he heard what Thomas Prusik-Parkin allegedly did, he said this, and I'm quoting here:
Son: "That sounds like something dad would do".

Me: Speechless.
What could I say?

The kid was right.

Our son then went on to tell me how his dad still has the old lady wig he acquired for a Halloween costume 10 years ago in a dresser drawer.

I just have one question though, how did Thomas Prusik-Parkin cover his blues patch with make-up?

well, he must have learned about Derma blend, the make up that covers/hides everything!

Well, the guy is for sure a few bricks shy of a full load. But your part of the story was funny. Thanks for the laugh!

Yeah, how DID he cover that up???

@ Stephany, Blue Violet - Either that or he went real elaborate and had one of those molded faces that he put on.

@ Dan River Mama - Most definitely.

@ Lin - I have no idea, but then you wouldn't believe some of the stuff my ex-husband scammed. He has scammed theatre tickets, concert tickets, products, discounted hotel rooms (with a discount he was not entitled to).

@ Herrad - Exactly!

I'll bet his mother would be so proud. There's a scammer around every corner these days. What a shame.

Have a terrific day Lola. :)

What thick make up would cover that patch up?? I had to chuckle about what your son said. They think of the funniest things sometimes.
