Technology Bum

Lately, with the economic crisis in this country, many street corners are populated with folks holding signs asking for monetary help. Today, I saw something unique. One of the homeless (at least that is the assumption, knowing there are some scam artists), was on a corner this morning huddled behind the street light post. There he was, texting away on his phone. Now maybe he was checking his stocks, or maybe he was communicating with his family. Anyway, it struck me funny. Given it was raining, just maybe he texted a friend for a ride. On the positive side, at least he wasn't texting and driving!
