Homeless begger
« on: November 20, 2017, 10:48:44 pm »
A man was walking down the street when he was accosted by a
Particularly dirty and shabby-looking homeless man who asked him for a couple of dollars for dinner.
The man took out his wallet, extracted ten dollars and asked,
"If I give you this money, will you buy some beer with it instead of dinner?"
"No, I had to stop drinking years ago," the homeless man replied.
"Will you spend this on bike parts instead of food?" the man asked.
"Are you NUTS!" replied the homeless man. "I haven't had a bike in 20 years!"
"Well," said the man, "I'm not going to give you money. Instead, I'm going to take you home for a shower and a terrific dinner cooked by my wife."
The homeless man was astounded. "Won't your wife be furious with you for doing that?
The man replied,
"That's okay. It's important for her to see what a man looks like after he has given up drinking and bikes."
Its not always the destination that counts its the ride, having a destination just stops you going round in circles.

Nice topical joke, too  close to home looking around our City Centres ! Great joke nevertheless. Not taking anything away from the humour in  this post but yesterday went to the bike show at the NEC Paid £25.00 to go and view bikes and gear I am expected to buy ?? Huh ! They should pay me to attend surely ? Anyway less of that drivel  went into Birmingham City Center to the German Christmas market after the show ( If  even  10 % of the stall holders were  Kraut my arse is Himmler's uncle)

When I returned from  a good day out with 6 mates and reflecting on the poor soul all and sundry passed by bombed out of his brains by New Street Station on Black Mamba or other such escape juice I bunged said amount to the Sally Army to feed a family for a day over Christmas.

I loathe Face Book and the Dopamine hits people crave to show how worthy they are so this missive is far from that it is really to highlight how pretty low we have sunk when poor buggers like Mr Mamba head are only cared for by such charities as the Sally Army and other heroic charity workers as the lack of any Civic grip or care is palpable. I was in the Police for 32 years and retired in 2013 and have never seen such homelessness in plain sight.   All that being said I crossed paths with a sumo wrestler sized Asian man who told me he was hungry and homeless  a few strides  away from Mr Prostrated man. Sumo man was told to stick his request where the sun don't shine !
