Thank you, Stoneth. Are they able to survive that way? That's pretty industrious, given the circumstances they are in.

What's a street sheet?

stoneth says:

Wow. Awesome. Thanks :))

James had quite a captivating way about him; but very few people bothered to look; he was trying to sell street sheets, but was being pretty thoroughly ignored.

Talking to him, he stood out as an amazingly gentle spirit (if you will).
