It's been a while, but an emailer sends in this pic of the Decatur Beggar spotted today in Arlington at Collins and NE Green Oaks. in Arlington.History.
I feel like I am being left out. I have been all over the metroplex and have yet to see this guy. Maybe we could convince him to setup a twitter account to keep us posted on his location.
Or, better yet, maybe someone could convince him to wear one of those GPS tracking devices...
A kindle is a device upon which you can download books, such as from Amazon, and read them off the screen. Though why anyone would rather do this than just get a free book from a library and read it is beyond me.
12:42 I am an avid patron of multiple libraries, but I can't write in their books! I do use the free library books for my "beach books," but I like to own my serious literature.
The Kindle has a function for annotations, copying and saving particular passages, storing massive numbers of books, and reading newspapers and magazines. I primarily covet one for use in my classroom. It would work beautifully connected to my LCD projector for sharing particular passages in books I am reading, demonstrating annotation skills, and projecting relevant, current, newspaper and magazine articles connected to the literature we are reading.

Well...the old bastard is persistant...........
I really, really, REALLY want a Kindle, so I'm giving up my $2 a day diet Coke habit. Maybe I should just go stand next to him with my own sign.
Barry....proofread before posting!!!! Did that second "Arlington" come from the redundant department of redundancy department???
what's a kindle?

I used to feel sorry for him. Now I realize he has a career that involves travel.
9:45, good idea. Put a GPS tracker under his car seat. That is where I have one on my daughter's car. I bought it on Ebay.
I also saw him in N. Arlington last week.
Probably rakes in a few hundred a day!

Get a F-N job!!!
I saw this guy at 380 and 75, (McKinney, I think) before I saw him in Decatur, so I was shocked to see him in Decatur. Sorry NO Pics
