Good Call: Literature For Loonies

How many times have you been going about your day, living your life, and all of a sudden you're face to face with an addled homeless person, reciting their laundry list of crazy, something along the lines of "Aliens took my uterus. Spoon. Ted Nugent rules. Hug me."

Sure, it can seem funny, but after awhile their wacked-out white noise can have you questioning your own sanity. That's why The Operator is pleased to roll-out our new social service program: Literature for Loonies.

Operatives will be sent out to distribute classical works of literature, and then help the homeless committ passages to memory. Soon, rather than their usual litany of lunacy, you'll hear your neighborhood hobo reciting a stirring Shakespearean sonnet or an ode by Keats.

It's our way of paying it forward, if you will. So the next time you're accosted by Betty the bag lady, and before she asks for a quarter she serenades you with some purple prose , you'll know who to thank.
