Obviously there's a story behind all this. If it's not too forward, may I ask what it is? Is this choice or necessity? Will you be all right?
Take care.

2. Friend, You need only to read further down the forum |
|
Read my other posts
Those who read this forum seeking knowledge on SSI Disability Unfortunately, many will repeat my story
We gotta take back our country from these greedy fuckers They'll work us until we're crippled and promise happy pastures but, just try to collect
It's not even over when a judge says it's over
I ain't going anywhere THIS IS MY COUNTRY WE SHALL OVERCOME!
There are millions of us in miserable ghettos paying our whole check in rent to some slimy repub who ain't never done an honest days work in his life.
Never! I'll sleep under a bridge first

15. I also work to the bone. |
|
I also fear Republicans getting my money.
Don't think I'll make a lot of difference under a bridge though.
I hope you find a good home soon.

9. Doing just fine so far |
|
I'm sitting in a bakery that has a public wireless network. Just installed and configured my new wireless card. As you can see, it's working just fine. I also have a 300 watt inverter to power the laptop in the car. So far, I haven't had to sleep on the carseat. Have had invites to sleep inside others homes. Yeah, this is doable.very doable. My son will be here the end of next week to get his sailboat that I have been holding while he's been in college. But, after that, ( after the first when I get my next (short) SSI check, I'm heading to VA to stay with friends a while and try to find a Dr. who accepts medicaid patients and also does pain managment. Either is hard, both could be very hard. I'll have a month before my supply of fentanyl patches runs out and I must find a Dr., Come back here or check into a hospital and go through withdrawal.I just hope that I can find a new Dr as the other two options are not very appealing. Well, gotta head up to the SS office and see if they have my file up here yet. I love all of you radicals and will check back in very soon.

11. Gosh! Never knew there were so many unsecured Hotspots |
|
out here. and so many named "Linksys" This is actually kinda fun so far. burning too much gas though. In a church parking lot now, so maybe I can afford to spend a half hour or so. This IS legal isn't it? I mean, They COULD have encrypted their signal. They had the choice. DL'd a good free anti-virus today just in case I run into a dirty trickster. Homelessness is still new to me now. I guess it will get pretty shitty later. Let's hope it doesn't last that long. Thanks for everyones thoughts. I'm OK It's more fun than in the '70's Well, now that I think of it We had some good drugs back then But no computers
Love
Wiley

13. If you ever in Johnstown Pa, look me up. |

I am helping a neighbor of mine run her bar/hotel. It is an old fashioned Hotel. i.e. 12 rooms sharing 4 baths. $20 a night, $250 per month. There is two "Break Rooms" with Sinks, Microwaves, TVs and Refrigerators and I can arrange for you to use the washer and Dryer in the basement (Our long term plan is to have coin operated washer and dryers installed but we don't have the money right now). Each room has Cable and a bed (I plan to get some furniture in the rooms whenever I can, but again long term plan).
I hope to open the bar soon, but it is closed at the present time do to lack of funds to open it up. The hotel has been a drain on my Income, but it is open for anyone who wants a room. The windows need to be replaced (A long term project) but the place is warm in the winter and cool in the summer (No A/C, but the ceiling fans keep the Rooms cool even on the hottest days so far this year.

I got my SSI arrearage. After I paid the lawyer and all of the bills, I bought a 28 foot sailboat on EBAY for $2500 and am renting dockspace including utilities and Shower and laundry facilities for $140 a month on the coast of Virginia. It's the best way I could think of to live on $579 a month SSI benefits without giving my whole check to some repug slumlord for a roach infested dumpy apt in a high crime area. And I absolutely love seafood! A 30 year dream comes true on the cheap, and I have means to escape when the Bushies declare marshal law. Still trying to arrange full time internet though. I'll be back here solid when I do
Love you all
Wiley
