It would be funny if it weren't so damned true

Post by ILikeStilettos »

I talked to a to a homeless man this morning and asked him how he ended up this way.

He said, "Up until last week, I still had it all. I had plenty to eat, my clothes were washed and pressed, I had a roof over my head, I had HDTV and Internet, and I went to the gym, the pool, and the library. I was working on my MBA on-line. I had no bills and no debt. I even had full medical coverage."

I felt sorry for him, so I asked, "What happened? Drugs? Alcohol? Divorce?"

"Oh no, nothing like that," he said. "No, no ... I was paroled."

All the prisons I’ve been in were hell holes.

By the way I did chuckle :D

I didn't expect that punch line. Got me to chuckle too. Judging by the description, that must have been a swedish prison.
