The Flame Thrower of Poá


I often like to look up the variety of definitions that exist for a word, in order to get a greater feeling for it. This weekend the term was "Hustler", to which one definition read: "a shrewd or unscrupulous person who knows how to circumvent difficulties". São Paulo has the highest number "hustlers" I've ever seen in a city, and you come across them everywhere, from trains to zebra crossings. I met this particular hustler in my home town and he fell on the better side of the definition, simply offering talent for a willing donation. He also offered me a great São Paulo second to capture.
