Sweet Baby James to the rescue at JFK

I love this story and now I love James Taylor (even more).

According to this story, officers (and I bet they’ll turn out to be fake officers – or soon-to-be unemployed officers) at JFK airport convinced a tourist to give her $140 iPod to a cab driver in lieu of payment for the $49 fare from Manhattan. The woman’s credit card had been declined by the cab’s reader.

After reading about the incident – and the fact that the young woman had lots of James Taylor songs loaded on her music player – the singer decided to buy her a new one.
