h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Well, being homeless and getting tired of the cold you begin to consider the different opportunities that present themselves. Now I grew up in a poor neighborhood and have been schooled on some street life. But I grew up and live without the desperation and hunger I had then. So being desperate and hungry again, mostly the cold is what did it, when I was offered free room and board in a nice warm motel room I jumped at the chance. Well, I remember being taught that nothing is free in this world. This wasn't either. I had to sell crack.
"O.K. I'll do it ", I said.

"You sure " ? seeing my pause in my reply.

" Yea, who gives a f**k".

So I got the room and began to be the guy they come to. I would have only so many grams, but crack is not like powder, it carries a much worse punishment, they would be sent to me and I would give it to them. Tens and twenty's throughout the night. You can make six hundred dollars a day selling to junkies 10 times a day. Also, the perks of anything you want new. TV'S, VCR's, New shoes, Im wearing them, all from the junkies who steal them, no dout, to get crack. Not to mention Blow Jobs and other sexual pleasures.
I couldn't do it for more then 2 days. I told him I would rather be back in the cold and find another way. I don't think the risk involved is worth the perks. That's me. I have grown and though i do not judge anyones life try to make decisions that are not from desperation. When I do, I pray that I have the wisdom to see where I am
and the strength to leave. Years in space will teach some things. I think it was in HEAT, the movie, where Robert Di'niro said something about never be in any situation where you cannot leave at a moments notice. I am able to do that. I did and here i am. Thank god cuz they probably dont have the net in Jail ? maybe ?
God Speed and I will check back later
