Some people expect ALL their mail delivered to their new address but the fact that mail carriers do not want to take back non-first class mail makes people think their mail is getting stolen. Mail carriers do not want standard mail, solicitations, magazines, catalogues and pretty much all the junk mail back.

No "standard class" (junk) mail is forwarded. If it is addressed "Las Vegas Drunk or Current Occupant" the carrier will leave at old address. Otherwise it is just treated as waste. It's the tradeoff bulk mailers get for their reduced postage rates.

LOL!

Les Miserable is the most beautiful show I have ever seen. I have seen it numerous times but always leave with a wet face. The lyrics have so much meaning, for everyone.

Just curious, has anyone else been approached at the Costco on N.Decatur/215 by a guy claiming to not want money, but would like food, blankets and wants to come to your house to do odd jobs to get the food,etc? The guy is white, with reddish blonde hair, looks unkempt a little. I noticed after he approached me, he went on to others to ask the same things.
I don't know whether he does this for a living or is really homeless. We did not bring him home with us. Seriously, are you going to let a stranger into your car and bring them home with you? I bet not.
I thought about going back there later with some food to see if he was still there, but ended up not going. Besides, it was dark by that time.

I knew of someone, back in Cincinnatti, who picked someone up at one of these homeless lanes (like out Bonanza and E/F steet area) brought him back to his house to do some work, and when he wouldn't pay him (far more than the settled price), he threated to call the police and tell the police the man picked him up for sexual purposes rather than real house work.
So he paid up, never again!

I picked one of these Mexican day laborers along Bonanza one day, many years ago, when I was learning Spanish, took him to the nearby Main Street Station for a breakfast buffet and 2 hours of practising Spanish for $10 a hour. No problems.

That would be pretty embarrassing Pink, to have that on your record, sexually propositioning a homeless person in your house for $$.
