I picked up a Hobo on the Highway again; he's in my guestroom

Life is so fucking unfair and our society so sick.

He's drug and alcohol free, as in never drank or did drugs.

Never went to prison or even jail.

His father murdered his Mom in front of him then suicided. He was raised in a good foster home, but obviously had developmental and stability issues.

Only bad habit is puffs of cigars. He has mesothelioma from doing demo construction in his youth. He was told he should be ok and live at least another 20 years if he can stop the smoking. Other then that he's functional.

He's wandered place to place for 40 years. Lost all his teeth years ago.

Monday we will try to find out what we can do to get his Birth C and ID back so he can get on disability or SS. He's 62 and has nothing. He can and wants to work, but needs the ID. He may need to be on a med but he seems totally fine without anything.

Thank goodness it's summer so he can be outside. I'm going to see if I can find him a tent on Craigslist, the damm things are so expensive.

He needs to contact his step parents who are still alive and live in Co Springs. If they say he can come home for help to get the ID's , I may drive him there.

Fucking Greyhound wants 200 bucks to go from Nashville to Denver. Insanity.

I'm in no better shape then he is emotionally. Both of us fell through societies cracks. He actually has better resources than I do, money or not.

This isnt the fisting forum. Check ur URL if ur looking to cruise the Hershy highway

What is fisting?

I could have banned ACs from this thread, but I didn't.

I didn't do it for "brownie points. I did it because. No real reason.

He said almost nobody helps anymore or picks up hitchhikers. He said he had slept on the side of the road for three days hoping for a ride. He had no food no water and almost no money. He has two pair of crap jeans, two Tshirts and a sleeping bag in a knapsack, that's it.

He had an episode and ditched his old phone. Monday we'll straiten out as much as we can.

I love to hear this, too.

You have a kind heart in heart frozen USA.
