Steven
On my way to the beer brewing store today, I met a Steven, a homeless guy. At first I thought he was a washed up drug addict and wanted nothing to do with him and his lies. But after talking to him for a while I was convinced that he was being sincere. I gave him and his wife $10 for bus fair to get to Olympia for his new job that starts tomorrow and some food. This is one of the first times that I've believed a random stranger's story, and it's the first time that I've given any homeless person that much money. After our conversation I discovered that the beer store is closed on Sundays, making my trip to the store a trip to meet Steven instead. Giving is good, I have way more than I need. I want to give more often. (no one I know who reads this is homeless or broke, so don't ask me for $10)

Haha! Sucker! That guy's real name is Dennis and he and I got drunk as shit on your $10! Thanks buddy. Appreciate it.
I gave some dude at the courthouse 3 bucks because he said that he needed to get a bus ride home because his cousin (who he came to court with) was going to jail (with the keys to his truck). I'm not sure if I helped someone out for a noble cause, or if this con-man preys on the gullible. I'm hoping in your and my case that it is the former.
I heard Steven is actually a terrorist and he used the $10 for flag burning materials
