Things are looking up for the bums

Kadizzle just returned from the farmer's market. Who should he run into there, but the Culvert Bum. The Culvert Bum has managed to find shelter in an apartment. Mrs. Bumore is now living on a ranch in the middle of nowhere. For both bums this is a vast improvement. Seems like the Culvert Bum has a better attitude and is seeking work. Mrs Bumore was talking about work also. It seems if you give the bums a small boost it improves their outlook and may lead to a better life. 

Motivating bums is not easy. They seem to flourish on failure. Most bums have a good dose of mental illness. On today's morning adventure Kadizzle met another fellow with an interesting life style. He travels the country doing tile work. Moving about he gets to enjoy the best places in the country and make a living doing it. Itinerant craftsmen can have a good life. Work when you want, no boss, and keep what you make. 

Most people's failing in life is a lack of imagination. If you are clever you can always find a way to survive. On the other hand if failure is your motif than that is what you will get.
