    ... I would never except money for free. Whether it's a stranger/a friend/government whatever, not doing it!  You don't  deserve anything if you sit on you ass all day.  Nothing pisses me off more than lazy freeloaders.  My friend was approached by some black thug the other day asking for money... he said no, and the thug cussed him out and walked off... what a piece of crap!

    Yeah we got one of those on my wifes side of the family you know the type , bounces around from family member to family member mooching off everyone in site, but won,t get up off her ass and go look for a job because , "I am too fat, and my knees hurt and OH!! I have depression , pity me , give me money". She tugged on my wifes heart strings this thanksgivin and was gonna come down for supper, but cancelled as soon as she got my wife to say OK on some money she badly needed, turns out she did not need the money at all, ( heard from a 2nd party ) so my wife says no to givin the money. She cussed and cursed my wife and sent her nasty e-mails. OH and this family member is a lifelong Democrat TOO!!  Explains alot!! GIVE ME!!! GIVE ME!!!

    What's the difference between a Comedian and a Homeless guy who makes you laugh?

    The comedian plays to hundreds or thousands for $30 each and the homeless guy plays to one for a dollar.

    Sorry, had to play "Devil's advocate" for a second.

    There was a guy outside the Best buy in Chula Vista a few weeks ago selling bulk candy he got at Walmart to raise child support money. ... at first, I thought it was for a church group (they never seam to put the kids up to the task of fund raising), then I thought it was for Rotary or Lions (etc.) ... I gave him $5, then found out it was for his child support. Now, I don't know what to think (does he need it, or not).

    I think I'm going to quit handing out money all together. (probably not, F**K, I don't know!)

    " doesn't people do things just because its the right thing to do anymore??" Life ain't about the god almighy dollar!
    WORD! Don't wory bout the money. It was a good deed anyhow. 5bucs, that's not even enough petrol to drive from the station and home back here, we pay 11$ for the gallon. Maybe you'll never see the money again, but that'll be due embarassement, no scam. And if it turns out he needed to scam you for 5 big ones - then I pity the fool.

    That's Karma for ya. If you hadn't given him the money, your truck would have run out half way to the gas station.

    That reminds me of an old Seinfeld episode where Kramer is test driving a car and keeps driving it to see how far it will go past "E".

    At the end of the episode, the car was sputtering, and he had a real scared look on his face.   :scared:

    It might come, it might come!!!!

    My wallet got slipped out from motorcycle jacket last summer, somewhere Santa Barbara on 101 (yeah, decent traffic there)... fcuk, I though, all credit cards (US and Finland), drivers license (US and Finland), insurance cards... so on so on, cash about 80$ (poor man). And this was first day of our 7 days motorcycle "tour"

    After a week, a female called me "Hi, we might have your wallet... my husband found it in the middle of 101 at Santa Barbara...said, yeah, surely mine if there's a baldie guy in the license, if there is something to recover".. well, it in deed was mine. Drivers licenses-Check, credit cards- mostly in pieces, half of my One World mileage card, cash 80$.
    I asked them to keep the 80$ and if they could mail me the wallet, nicely done!!! So there's hope  :grinyes:
