Beggars Can't Be Choosers

While driving to work the other day I spotted this young man on the side of the road with a sign that read, "Spaceship broke down, need parts, may the force be with you." He wasn't making eye contact with anyone, and I don't know if he was making a lot of spare change that particular morning. It was more entertaining to me than most of the, "Lost Soul, God Bless" signs, so I decided to take his picture. He found this comical and though he tried to contain himself, couldn't. I thought about giving him a dollar for the sheer fact that he had posed for my picture taking, but then noticed he had a new case for the guitar he was carrying and must have had enough money to pierce his lip and his ears,so I figured he was doing okay. I would save my dollar for something else. And just write about the guy who was begging for my with a spaceship sign.
