Poverty can take many forms, I spent this evening with an old friend who has fallen on hard times. We haven't shared a beer in several years, in the that span of time our fate has reversed. I'll never forget the when life was dark and my buddy was there to help. I hope I can be as good a man as he is.

His father touches the Claw in spite of Kevin's warnings and breaks two legs just as a thunderstorm tears the house apart. Kevin runs away with the Claw. He becomes captain of the Greasy Bastard, a small ship carrying rubber goods between England and Burma. Michael Palin, Terry Jones, 1974

Gavin that is true. Our culture does not work that way. A lot of people think they have got to have everything even if it about drives them into the poor house.

I call those people dipshits. I have "friends" that are like that. I feel they are poorer than me.

The sad part is they don't even realize it. I have "friends" that really think they have it figured out. I honestly feel sorry for them...

When we first moved to this area our Daughter refused to move with us, she was 15. She still hates the way we live.

This was our place out in the brush. Kick myself every time I think about us selling it.

I bet in reality Oneshot your a millionaire. I got a neighbor lives in a little A Frame house. His family put their life savings about $4000 I think it was into a company called IBM back in the 30s. Poor old fella he is. Yes indeed.
