Do the homeless drink our blood at night?
2008-05-04 10:50:00
There is a point when desperation stops being French and romantic and becomes something much more real and scary. Is it so surprising to think then that maybe the homeless, displaced, and down trodden of the streets just might drink our blood at night? And if they do, is that so bad? Can you really blame them?Sure, maybe they?re a little dated. It seems that the dark, horny, beauty of draculas in the 90s has been replaced by the swashbuckling flamboyance of pirates in the 00s. As Anne Rice made room for Roller Coaster rides the importance of blood and blood drinking was lost and now may be found in a less desirable place, on the dirty and dry lips of those retched wrecked souls called the walking homeless, those modern day street roaming nomads, those transient vagrants, the homeless. Gone is the once kind playfulness of the run down tramp, and replacing that once romantic life of freedom and carelessness a life overflowing with the horrors and sadness of vampirism, night walk...

Donate a Boat to Help the Homeless Teens
2008-03-25 10:36:00
Have you ever thought about how much your old boat is worth? I mean sometimes after the depreciation, we may wonder if it is worth the cost of repair and the time to maintain it? What if I told you that your old boat is worth the education and hope of a better future life of some homeless children? It is worth the value of giving needed help and education to anti-drugs documentaries? That would really be worth something far of greater value than monetary sense, don't you think so?Angel Ministries is the root of Boat Angel, where they use boat donations to create children's animations and anti-drug documentaries. There are movies that you can watch online as well as free DVDs created to promote good morals, learn life's lessons, benefit from the quotes from nearly one-hundred well-respected leaders, authors, and states humanitarians. There are also projects to construct a permanent 5,000 square foot building, estimated cost upon completion $200,000 for the benefit and use of teen ...

Homeless again
2008-03-25 02:55:00
Did I mention that I may be moving (for real this time)? Yep. I'm transferring to a senior college at the end of this semester (speaking of which, I need to apply and get my transcripts sent really soon). However... The nearest branch is 53.7 miles away. That is more than 106 miles of driving each day. I can't do that. My aunt (that I previously disowned) is a professor on that campus (though she actually teaches for another branch school that merely shares the same campus) and she has to move closer too. Guess I'll be rooming with her.If we can find a house/apartment/mobile home/cardboard box/etc. to rent. So far, we have um... Nothing.Cross your fingers for me? It looks like I'm going to be homeless again.

As I've mentioned before, my former lawyer has recently been informed that he's going to be laid off in the middle of the summer. Now, as funny as that may be (after all, there are some comics floating around about the situation), there is a serious consequence to this. My lawyer and his wife (who are trying to start a family), need to sell their condo pronto.. Otherwise, they run the risk of defaulting on their mortgage when his job runs out. Please, visit the mls page (and check out the photos on flickr).. If you're looking for a condo in downtown Toronto, this is one that's worth looking at!For kicks, here are the comics again:

Does the Homeless in New York City have a sense of appreciated value?
2008-03-07 19:52:00
Apparently those in New York City have a sense of worth. They have a calculated interest in archiving valuable objects, through the collecting of signatures. Whatever else could we imagine is apart of their enterprising nature. This is a capitalist society, and many know how and will exploit the opportunities that arise.When one such as out good man in New York City, who has turned down a 5 dollar bill, for a signed dollar. It was obvious that he had more in mind, than a meal or a bottle of booze. Perhaps multiple meals, booze, etc.. However that may seem, the world is filled with savvy individuals, that will stop at nothing to make their mark on society, one way or another.As reported by People, this Homeless guy refused the up in what he originally asked for, and charged that they New York, Signed the dollar bill in stead of receiving the 5 dollar bill from her beau.When the I Love New York star and her fiancé, George ?Tailor Made?

Home For The Homeless In The Guise Of Foreclosures
2008-03-05 17:59:00
 Sounds ironic if one said that foreclosures are indirectly creating homes for the homeless, doesn’t it? The nation’s continuing foreclosure crisis is creating yet another. On a given day, in downtown Cleveland, the vacant houses were more in number than the homeless on the streets. This situation is creating opportunities for numerous squatters. Many vacant homes (left vacant by foreclosure) are a delight for the homeless and are preferred over rundown houses. In fact, many of these homes still have the utilities like water and electricity still working. Convenient as it looks, since most of these homeless street dwellers are not on the record, they make most of this situation and start dwelling in these homes. Many others use these properties at meeting points for drug deals, prostitution and thieving. Though squatters face these risks, they still prefer occupying these homes as it gives them free shelter and privacy. The census of the homeless dropped to 17 from 40 in a part...

Toronto: Homeless Man Frozen to Death
2008-03-01 14:07:00
Shelter is not an option. It is a matter of life and death, especially on long Canadian winter nights. OCAP: Wednesday night an Aboriginal man who was homeless was found frozen to death in a stairwell around Yonge and Charles St. Another man was found in Chinatown with serious injury from exposure.Just six days ago the City heard 12 deputations from agencies and community members about the current crisis. After the loss of over 300 shelter spaces and basic needs such as food, we have been left in a dangerous situation. Demands were made for only the most basic need -shelter. The City's response was to leave people in danger and to risk injury and death. The death of this man and the injury and suffering of other homeless people is on the hands of the City. On Tuesday will be going to City Hall to face Miller and demand an immediate response to this crisis. This is aserious situation and we ask that you make all efforts to join us.

Google Provides Free Voicemail to Homeless
2008-02-29 02:09:00
Google announced yesterday at a Project Homeless Connect event that they would provide free voicemail to homeless in San Francisco, if they choose to accept it. According to the article by MSNBC, A homeless person will be able to call in for his or her messages from any phone.

"How do you expect your life to turn around if you can't even get information or if someone can't even get in touch with you?"
