Oh my gosh, I need to post about this before I forget! This morning, close to 4 a.m., I was finally ready to drift off to sleep. All of a sudden, a man starts yelling, "HELP!" in a frantic, desperate voice. You could tell he was running toward where we were parked in the RV. Paul looked out the window and grabbed his phone to call 911 if it came to that.
Surprisingly, five people appeared out of nowhere to help—at 4 a.m.!—and Paul saw another guy laid out on the concrete on a traffic island near Fountain Blvd. Since five people were already attempting to help, we stayed in the RV.
A little while later, the guy was sitting up. We saw flashing lights, so an emergency vehicle had arrived. We don't know what happened, but I know that I have never heard a man yell that loudly or frantically. Took me quite a while to get back to sleep. I hope everyone involved is okay and all is well.
One thing about living in an RV is that you are closer and more involved with humanity and its wounds and ills when you're in the city than you would be living in your house or apartment. It's both startling and humbling. Definitely food for thought.
This blog covers the sometimes-odd life and thoughts of Bev & Paul Sninchak, word nerd wife and tech geek husband. We like books, art, B-horror movies, most types of music (NO country!), World of Warcraft, pets, and binge-watching Netflix. As you may have guessed, we're also introverts. You never know what you'll find on our blog, but stick around to find out.

It's simple: do what makes YOU happy!
If you like Pokemon Go, play it.
If you don't like Pokemon Go, don't play it.
I'm sure some of you enjoy hobbies other people don't enjoy.
Leave people alone and allow them to do what makes them happy. In a world that seems to grow madder (as in insane) by the minute, people need to have pastimes to take their minds off of other stressors.
Football might make you happy, but others may find it stupid and a waste of time. And you can insert countless other hobbies/pastimes as well.
Don't like reading about Pokemon Go? Do what I do when I see people posting about subjects I don't care about—scroll on by or ignore the posts. It's that simple, folks.
Allow people some joy and recreation in their lives, even if YOU don't like or approve of it.
