68. This is what makes me crazy
when I hear people say there are no heroes anymore. They're all around us, we just have to open our eyes.

We've had such a tragic increase of homeless in my area (I live in a very working class neighborhood). The other day I saw an elderly couple who were obviously homeless (not real clean, struggling to push a very full shopping cart). I'm guessing they were probably in their 70's. I went down the road a little ways and had to pull over I was sobbing so hard. What the hell has happened to my country?

Good for these young men! Maybe they will inspire others.
