I'm in the same boat. We played a little gig Sunday at which a now-homeless
woman was assaulted somewhere in the vicinity and came in for help. She was
recently laid off from the college where she worked as a groundskeeper due to

budget cuts and now has nowhere to live and no support system. There's just
too
much of this kind of crap going on.

Hold on a minute....can you elaborate a little. A women gets laid off....she is
instantly homeless..then assaulted. I agree this sounds like a tragedy but to
think this is commonplace is a little hysterical. And what exactly is to be
done? What was the rest of the story? For the record ..I believe that every
poiltician is dishonest at best.
