Homeless Man

I might be wrong but I do believe my Storm Lake reporter forwarded this to me. Regardless, it came across on iOwnTheWorld.com. It's worth of a hearty laugh.

This morning I was sitting on a park bench next to a homeless man.
I started a conversation by asking him how he ended up this way.

He said, “Up until last week, I still had it all. I had plenty to
eat, my clothes were washed and pressed,
I had a roof over my head, I had TV and Internet, and I went to the
gym, the pool, and the library.

I was working on my MBA on-line. I had no bills and no debt. I even
had full medical coverage.”

I felt sorry for him, so I asked,
“What happened? Drugs? Alcohol? Divorce? ”

“Oh no, nothing like that , ” he said. “No, no. I got out of prison.”
