He was a dirty little kid. Dark skin, ratty ass clothes and cheap sandals adorned him. After 6 months of travel, I was use to ignoring beggars. And here was another one, just a little kid, with his hand stretched out. I ignored him and continued on my way. After all, this was Rio! Copacabana beach was to the right of me, expensive ass hotels to the left and dotting the mountainside were the favelas.

I continued on my way when an older bum came up to me. Damnit! Leave me alone asshole! But this guy help following me. I finally looked at him and saw that he was pointing down to my leg……..on top of my shoe was liquid shit. Some of it had even gotten on my pants. And it just so happened that the bum had a stool (LOL) and was offering to clean me up.

Read the article. Encounters with the unfortunate are heart wrenching for me. Pase though it may be, I do wish the world could be rid of a great many of its ills.

Thanks for the scam tip, BTW.
