The Love Taxi

I have encountered many odd occurrences during my time here in NYC. Tonight’s cab ride topped the list. Ahmed Ibrahim, taxi driver extraordinaire picked me on 116th and Broadway. Barley listening for my destination spot he instantly proceeded to tell me about his life in the limelight complete with news clippings. He is a spunky man with lots of energy and he is the NYC cabbie matchmaker. He has spent his days setting his riders up on dates. One couple has already married and another is engaged. he decided to do this *"after listening to so many passengers’ sob stories about their love lives he decided to give single New Yorkers a helping hand." He offers his matchmaking talents as a free service to the people: And now he is getting widespread fame. Ahmed has been a driver for around 20 years and now he has been offered to do his own reality TV show. So if your looking for love, then hope the next taxi you flag will be Ahmeds.
