The veteran with only one finger was known "affectionately" as The
Hacker for his constant mucous expectorating.   I had the distinction
of not only serving him his sausage biscuit and coffee while working at
McDonalds as an undergraduate, but then in graduate schoool at Mizzou,
while working for Tiger Taxi, I also picked him up at his home
somewhere on Sanford Avenue off Conley Avenue and BRINGING him to
McDonalds.  When he threw his change up onto the dashboard for payment,
sometimes it was never retrieved.   Other times, I just paid the $0.85
fare.
