Bum Blog: Where it all began

This bum blog is put forth for a simple purpose: Everyone has a bum story. A transient has asked for change in a strange way or he's smeared shit on the Fidelity building as you walked by. Until now, there has never been a place to come together over the virtual fire and discuss these sometimes disgusting, sometimes perturbing, but always hilarious and politically incorrect stories.

Everyone can contribute to this blog...just e-mail your editor. If you think this is arbitrary, it's because it is. Not all bum blog stories are created equal. I'm looking at you, the person who sends in "This bum had a sign that said, 'My wife was kidnapped and I'm 78 cents short on the ransom.'" I'm sorry, but that is barely a complete sentence and definitely not a story. You are the reason that television shows are, by and large, terrible. You are the reason that Charlie Sheen is the highest paid actor on television even though he's on "2 and a half men." Oh ha to the fucking ha, Charlie banged another chick. Where is the fucking joke? Is it on the chick because she's probably diseased now? Is it on the viewer? My head just exploded. You are the reason that I worry about Mad Men getting canceled. You are the reason why Jay Leno continues to be on the air.

Here at Bum Blog, we need the back story and we need prose. Was it raining, was it snowing, was a hurricane a-blowin'? I don't know unless you tell me. So get out there. Get yourself a story and get to writing; you're bumaudience awaits.
