Hollywood, You gotta love it!

Today I drove by 5 different people asking for change at stoplights. I didn't give money to any of them. Sweet! Not that I didn't feel bad, but in this town, who knows what is real and what is fake? Are they going to use the money to better themselves or for alcohol or drugs? Are they not even homeless and trying to raise money to fund a short film? Es posible. Who freakin knows!

This reminds me of a great scene from the Marx Brother's "Horsefeathers" from 1932 (the era of the Great Depression ... I didn't know that depressions could be great but I guess it was a real trip).

A bum ... er ... I mean a homeless person walks up to Harpo in the street and says "Say buddy. Can you give me a dime so that I can get myself a cup of coffee?"

Harpo, suspecting that the guy is only going to use it for alcohol, opens his large coat and removes a cup (in its saucer) of piping hot coffee and hands it to the guy.

The Marx Brothers rock.
