First watch this video. It's short. Are you watching? Good.
J.A. del Rosario happened to see this sign and had his camera handy. A couple of days later, this photo of a man holding the sign was in City Pages. I have to wonder: Did some witty prankster make the sign and leave it in public, hoping a homeless guy would use it? Or had it been abandoned by one witty panhandler, and picked up by another?
Hooray, a new vlogger in town! J.A. recently moved here with his girlfriend. See also: Chasing Windmills, "a collection of sketches revolving around a young couple."

Great hour on MPR. It was funny how Christal sounded like my brother.
What's really odd about this is that 2 weeks ago I saw a guy in NYC with that same sign. Well not literally that same sign, but it had the same thing written on it. How odd!
yeah, there's definitely a weird "thing" going on. I saw a kid with that sign on the same corner, and later found a picture that's been circulating on the internets.
