ON YOUR FACE:
Moved from Feburary 26,2007
From the lyrics of The Temptations I being to you Smiling Faces
SMILING FACES
Smiling faces sometimes pretent to be your friend
Smiling faces show no traces of the evil that lurks within
Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes
They don't tell the truth uh
Smiling faces, smiling faces
Tell lies and I got proof
The Truth is in the eyes
And the eyes don't lie, amen
Remember a smile is just a frown turned upside down
My friend let me tell you
Smiling faces,smiling faces sometimes
They don't tell the truth ,uh
Smiling faces, smiling faces
Tell lies and I got proof
Beware, beware of the handshake that hides the snake
I'm telling you beware,Beware of the pat on the back
It just might hold you back
Jealousy (jealousy)
Misery (misery)
Envy I tell you,you can't see behind smiling faces
Smiling faces sometimes
They don't tell the truth
Smiling faces, smiling faces
Tell lies and I got proof
Smiling faces,smiling smiling faces sometimes
They don't tell the truth
Smiling faces, smiling faces
Tell lies and I got proof
(Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes)
(Smiling faces,smiling faces sometimes)
I'm telling you beware, beware of the handshake that hides the snake
Listen to menow, beware
Beware of the pat on the back
It just might hold you back
Smiling faces,smiling faces
Tell lies and I got proof
Your enemy won't do you no harm
Cause you'll know where he's coming from
Don't let the handshake and the smile fool ya
Take my advice I'm only try'in to school ya
You know people are so full of hate for another until they can see those of there own that are hating against them.We become blinded by a smiling faces and kind treatment that you can see the evil that lurks within. Let me use this article that was in Savannahnews Paper.What does the faces of a criminal look like ,what color is he or how do they dress?Just like everyone else.This is why people get conned because the con artist play on the one that thinks he is educated and knows it all.Animosty is what they play, on those who think that they can get something for nothing. They the victims have no street knowledge all that they have is book knowledge so you are easy prey.It's a trust game.

Who is Alex McKay?
Business owners around town are trying to unreveal that question; police say he has let 'a trail of deceptive business pratices'
Alex McKay was the type of guy who made you feel comfortable.He was quick with a story and always willing to pick up a bar tab. One problem, however:He wasn't legally paying for those drinks,or any of the $58,000 in bills he racked up at Savannah businesses,police said.
McKay, 43, is now being held at the Chatham County jail while detectives unvavel the suspect's two weeks spending spree.
He is charged with one count of theft of services.An additional count of theft of services and possibly up tp 15 counts of forgery are pending, police spokesman Sgt. Mike Wilson said.
Financial crimes detective with the Savannah-Chatham Metropolitan Police Department are working with police in Washington, who also are investigating McKay related to similar,Wilson said.
"It is apparent that McKay has left a trail of deceptive business practices and fraud not only here in Savannah, but in Washington, DC., as well," Wilson said
Now, people across town are trying to figure out just whom they wre doing business with.
"This guy never paused,never thought about it," saiod Matthew Allen of Keller Williams Reality."He either is the quickest guy on his feet or studied his back story really well."
So-called love of city
McKay came into town Jan. 24 and booked a room at the 17 Hundred 90 on East President Street. The District of Columbia resident told Savannahians he was in town working on an interior design job on Gaston Street.
"He seemed like a nice guy -intelligent,educated,somebody you want to be friend with," said Bill Fox, excutive innkeeper at the 17 Hundred 90 and President's Quarters.
McKay dined at restaurant, charging meals to his room and buying rounds of drinks for the locals,Fox said.
Hespoke to a Savannah College os Art and Design class and even commented on the student's midterm exams.
From the way he dined with SCAD students to stories he told while rummaging through antique shops, everything about McKay s was charming,Allen said.
Like so many, McKay seemed to get seduced by Hostess City's hospitality.
"HE said he fell in love with Savannah and bought the house," Fox said. "I believed him because that's what I did too."
Fox was visiting Savannah about two years ago from New Jersey when he fell in love with the city and decided to relocate.
McKay found a realtor and immediately made plans to settle down.
He purchased thousands of dollars of furniture at Alex Raskin's Antiques and $9,000 worth of appliances at Livingood's Alllen said.
On Jan.31, McKay attended a residential open house at 207 East Hall St.
"He said,'This is a great house' and took interest in renting", said Allen, the listing agent.
The next day, McKay returned and said he wanted to purchase the $925,000 home. He pulled out a Morgan Stanley check for $20,000 and signed the contract.
Over the next few days, he took his new-found friends to visit the house and had utilities turned on, Allan said.
Allen was finishing the contract for the house on Feb.8 when he got a call from Fox.McKay had checked out of the 17 Hundred 90, leaving behind a $2,800 bill.
"He was suppose to give a check when he checked in,but it got delayed and delayed," Fox said. "And then he just skipped out on us."
Allen had the $20,000 Morgan Stanley check in front of him assumed therer was some type of "mix-up" ar the hotel.
"At first I thought maybe it's a misunderstanding, especially since Alex was at the house and had turned the gas and electric on," Allen said. " But then I looked at my check. And it was number 1003,the same as Bill's bad check."
Check-in at the jail
The Realtor and the innkeeper tracked McKay to Churchhill's Pub.
Allan shared a drink with McKay while Fox waitd outside with police.
"I went in and sat down," We looked at a menu, and a couple minutes later cops came in."
Officers search McKay and found the Morgan Stanley portfolio, another man's credit card and receipts from New York and Washington, police said.
All of the checks had the same sequence number:1003.
"He had a briefcase full of them," Fox said.
Police learned the Morgan Stanley account was closed.
As the days passed, more reports of bad checks by McKay trickled in, Wilson said.
A Johnny Harris restaurant employee told officer McKay left a $120 dinner bill. He went to pay, and his credit card was declined,said Deborah Foster, a manager at the restaurant. McKay told the restaurant staff he was going to his car to get a new card.
"We haven't heard anything since," Foster said. Similar scenarios were replayed at other businesses throughout Savannah,Wilson asid.
"He seemed like a regular guy, but he was just a scam artist.People were shocked when they heard it," Fox said. "I think he was going out of his way to make friends to gain confidence so he could take people."
He is a professional manipulator like the rest of them was.CIA was all professional manipulator it's part of the job.
