A coworker who told me that when he was a police officer, he was told about a homeless person in our area who was actually a millionaire. This homeless person had some tragedy in his life and just started wandering the streets.

My sister used to volunteer distributing donuts every week to homeless. She told me about one homeless man in particular who was very intelligent, well educated, charming, etc. He had spent many years in the Navy before something caused him to become homeless.

There is another guy I often see who always wears shorts and a T-shirt - even when it's winter time. My mother said she saw somebody give him a blanket for warmth, but he just looked at it confused and rolled it up under his arm. Another guy used to jog down the median every day pointing at the sky. He would kneel and cross himself at every stop light. My sister in law offered him a ride once, and he said "I'm just that crazy guy. I don't need a ride, but thanks anyway."

It's a shame that these people are homeless. They seem like good people. aside from their problems.
