    ...How are you homeless if your in a house on wheels?

    Might just be me, an my love for full time rv'ing.

    Call me heartless but if your riding in a rv, your not homeless...as they say on the rv forums..home is where you park it.

    Edited to add : Once in my travels in Az, I decided to be a vagabond, an camp out for a couple months, since my lease was up, an I knew I'd be heading back east. During that time, I met a family of 12 who lived in a travel trailer. They just traveled around, doing their religious work. ( they were missionaries..I believe is the word ) Good folks, an seemed happy as you an me with our stick an brick houses. Dunno what my point was..but..eh, I thought it interesting enough to share!

    My company maintains gardens at a few mc'dees and i can tell you strange things happen in those parking lots. Ever seen an entire family of 5 try and order out of the trash can by talking to it and eventually getting upset and tearing off.My favorite was at one mc'd they hired an exchange student and stuck them on the microphone 1st day. poor girl didn't even see it coming watched one guy try to order a burrito no cheese and a coffee for 20 mins. after 8 or 9 mins the cussing and yelling started another 5 min and he was out of his car screaming red faced at the microphone. at the 20 min mark back in the car engine revving before peeling out of his spot only to slam on his brakes a second later get out of the car in the middle of the entrance exit and go inside the mc'ds only to find out that breakfast is now over. Well that did it, couldn't hear him but his general body language and hand gestures said it all. cops show up the guy busts out of mc'ds screaming and yelling walking to his car. The cops stop him and start to talk to him and i think it's over. "OH NO!" I hear i didn't see how but the guy got in his car and took off up over the curb and onto main st sideswiping a car and taking off cops not far behind. Eventually heard the guy was all messed up on drugs and booze and is now in jail.
    all that for $3 worth of slop and mudwater they try to pass off as food.
    also seen a clown riding a horse riding a train in the parking lot
    the Who said it best.
