Yesterday, I am sitting in the drivethru of Burger King when I see this guy on the street, I couldn't read the sign and my Dad looks at me and says "OMG did u see that guys sign" and starts laughing...and I said "nope" ...so he told me what it said. I looked at my Dad and said well the line here's long, I have my camera, hes 20 feet away, I am gonna ask him if I can take his picture. LOL So I grabbed my Minolta and bolted out the car door in the drive thru. Yelled "Hey! Can I take yer pic????" and he smiled and said "yep! No problem!" ~click~ it went! :) This just made me smile.....he's homeless, but still manages to keep his sense of humor! Now THAT is what it's all about! :) I wish I woulda gotten his name or something.....because wether he knows it or not...he just really inspired me!

I wish it wasn't so ironic; if this man had enough money coming to him, he'd be obscure in a different way. Cool that you got his photo. :)

how ironic- perspective makes me feel like something is wrong with gravity- makes the picture all that more ironic....
