There are a few regular homeless people in our neighborhood, and we've created nicknames for them all - Spiderman, ABA, Zombie Woman. We create nicknames because we don't know them. I always thought it would be great to start a blog that interviewed a different homeless person each day. There are probably some fascinating stories to tell. And some interesting photographs to be had. And we're all curious to know.
Now, someone is doing something pretty close to that in Minneapolis. They're asking four questions to the freeway exit ramp beggars. The best ever answer to the "dream job" question, came from Lee Westmoreland: "I'd like to be a pirate. I think that would be a good job. Just give me a treasure chest; I'll be fine." Couldn't agree more.
