Karl, saw him yesterday morning along side rt 6a by the Shaws plaza down the street from you. I hadn't seen that bum in years he was picking up just about anything that lay in the gutter and putting it in his pockets and an old bag

Why even try.........

But for the grace of God

The guy (I've heard)has family, is a vet.,is picked up every year come summer time so as not to scare off the tourists yet ends up sleeping out side in the coldest of winter. In the past i have seen his cardboard pad in the woods but he keeps on moving. I have also seen him stopped by state cops on the side of the highway walking along. I pray something can be done to help him so he is not suffering.But for the grace of God there go you or i .

One more skeevy guy hanging around the Eagles, what's left of downtown, and the liquor warehose/redemption center won't make much of a difference. He can join Shaky Jake and Boxcar Willy in their tarpaper shack up by the water tower behind Red Top
