I was running Infront of Richmond Kidney Center today, which is right across the street from clove lake parks on victory blvd. I ran past this old man in a wheel chair. He had no legs. I also assume is was a Vietnam war vet, I might even go as far as saying he might even be a Korean War Vet. Yeah, people forget about that war. But anyway, I was running and he yells at me "Yo boy, I used to do that, I used to have legs like that, until the damn asian blew my fucking legs off." Before I go on, I am sorry if this might offend any asians out there, but this is just what I heard. I did feel bad for this man, and deep down he inspired me. He inspired me never to be a crazy old man. But also to use my legs. He also inspired me to brush my teeth because he had a total of four teeth in his mouth and they were "I cant believe its not butter" yellow. Kinda grimy. You have arms guy there is no excuse for you not brushing your teeth. And now you only have four, you have about 22 less teeth to bush then the rest of us. Suck it up and get a tooth brush. I do still felt really bad for the state that he is in though. I even felt worse when I ran buy him. But i did not feel too bad when I saw he was getting loaded into an escalade. I hope no one is offended by this post.
