At Least They’re Direct

By Mitch Berg

My neighbor Peter over at Growing Things (he’s a garding machine) writes about an encounter with some Minneapolis panhandlers:

Unlike most Twin Cities panhandlers, their faces didn’t bear the wear and tear of decades of addiction.

While two lounged in the shade of a small tree, one held a hand-lettered sign which read:

If you voted for OBAMA, you owe me some CHANGE.

I regret that I left my camera at home.

Oh, me too.

    For such an encounter, it would be nice to have a (counter)sign in one’s car saying “you HOPE”.
