Save the world

Step 11: Save the world

Save the world by taken your original ink and recycling it at your local ink recycling center...or give it to a homeless person so they can take notes on their rantings.

In the early 80's I was homeless. Today I work for NASA. Just goes to show you what hard work and determination (along with a really nice pen) will get you. True story, believe me now or believe me later.

Are you the guy responsible for the trouser wearing ducks?
Just what is NASA up to, exactly?

you are an inspiration to all the homeless people who still realize the value of a quality writing implement

Whales in reply to biscuitkingMar 24, 2010. 7:17 AM

thats an amazing story actually. congratulations if it's not a lie

biscuitking in reply to WhalesMar 28, 2010. 10:44 PM

Yeah, it's true. Got out of the Navy and had no place to go. No friends to speak of, I was a bit of a loner. Spent about a year living in my truck (does that qualify as homeless?), bumming around the country...met some really good people along the way. There's an education to be had being on the road but the price you pay for it can be an expensive one if you let it. One day I decided I needed to get responsible and get a real job. Found one, stuck with it for a bunch of years, took college classes while I was working. Graduated with an AAS in Computer Networking, started applying around and wound up getting this gig. All in all, things haven't worked out too bad.

and so the hobos can make signs begging for food , make them dance before you give it to them , it gives them a sense of dignity because they have "earned" there empty pen refill , its being nice , honest.

I hate the comment about the homeless. If you've ever known any of them you'd realize how off base the comment is. Many can't help it due to mental illness and lack of health care options. Great hack, bummer on the social commentary part.

solopach in reply to japanitesMay 6, 2009. 5:46 PM

Dude... seriously.

gannon12raiders in reply to japanitesJan 29, 2009. 8:46 PM

"Many can't help it due to mental illness and..." This is exactly where the rantings come in to play. It is a fact of life that some homeless people are extremely "crazy" through mental illness or excessive drug use. It is what it is. I find that looking at the humorous aspects of the world instead of focusing on the negative makes one less sensitive and better able to adapt to otherwise undesirable situations. Lighten up! This is a cool instructable. Your social commentary is just as bad or worse to many of us than the author's. I think we should all support freedom of speech and poetic license in these instructables to allow for more fun projects and more expression of the authors' personal preferences of how to write his or her own text.
