Holy crap. If you look up clueless in the dictionary, your picture will be right next to it.

Why would anyone create an AI video with those results?

This may be the worst yet.

Bob Fulstone, a very good friend to the project, sent me a note asking for your help. Pass the word around to anyone you might think would be interested.

Dear Jerry,

As you know, I'm on the board of the USO of Missouri. I have been privileged to work with the Wendt Family Foundation who funded the opening of a new USO at the Southwest Airlines Terminal. They are now helping to support a 10/5 k run this April.

I'm not asking for money, although would be delighted to get some! We are hoping to get this flyer about the run on internal company web sites. We are hoping to get as many sign-ups as we can. So please forward to ever you like.

Before the concert the Military Warrior Support Foundation will be presenting a home to some worthy veteran.

All money raised will benefit our local USO, which was recently voted the best large market USO by the troops!
If anyone has a question, I have my cell phone number at the bottom.

Thanks for your consideration!
Wearing my other hat,
Bob

It is with mixed emotions that the City of St Louis, has decided to close the largest Homeless Shelter in the area. It seems as though there is a trend that people are moving back into the city and unfortunately the homeless shelter is in the midst of that movement. Now we all want to see the city prosper but this is akin to the folks who bought homes next to the Pig Farm and soon discovered that Pig Farms smell. Then they want the Pig Farm to move. Excuse me but if you move into an area that surrounds the Pig Farm, shame on you.
What is the solution, I don't know. Maybe we should work harder to train these folks so they can get jobs and maybe they can become among those who are now complaining.
You can't fix the problem by simply driving the homeless away because they'll just become homeless somewhere else, unless they get help.
I have long said, giving a homeless person a place to live is futile unless you help them find a means to support themselves at the same time.
This image is one of our people from the Campaign with the shelter in the background.

The great comments keep coming in. It makes me feel like we have reached people.
Yesterday a sweet well meaning woman ask if I'd help her distribute 100 gift packages to the Homeless Veterans. If I had the time, I'd drive to Georgia to physically help but she need actual people she could hand her sincere gifts to in person.

If any of you know likely recipients in Georgia, let me know and I'll pas it along to her.

Thank you Sharon.

In working with veterans for the past five years, I have learned a lot about their lives, thoughts, feelings, actions, intentions and outcomes. These learnings have reshaped the way I look at homeless veterans, myself and my community....
