My lasting impression of Sweden was that they spoke better English than the English.

The weirdest things was when I listened to some teenagers chatting in a fast food restaurant the would be talking in Swedish and then have bursts of English seemingly in the middle of sentences and then revert to Swedish. I asked them about this and they said some thing like, "What English? We were speaking Swedish! ...weren't we?" They didn't even notice!
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

OK, I'm gonna be that ass. The article says:
They struck up a friendship during their trip and swapped numbers before flying home to Sagmyra.
If he's homeless, what landline number did he give them? Or does he carry a cell phone? Last time I checked, if I wanted a usable cell phone with an actual number, I had to give the service provider a street address.
Do homeless people carry burner phones?

Maybe homeless because he bought a burner house?

Well, the article did say he was divorced, in which case I'd say, if he got to keep the house, she's probably the one who burned it down.

From what little experience I have of homelessness(there but for the grace...), having helped out at a shelter years ago, homeless people can sometimes use the address of a shelter for bank accounts so I am guessing they could do the same with a cell phone account.

I'm fortunate enough never to have experienced homelessness. But I'm pretty sure if I was, the last thing I'd want to be wasting money on is a phone.
Also, I think I'd be rather pissed if I was in that situation and someone bought me a plane ticket--how many meals could this guy have bought for that money?

So, was your coffee mug named "News", because that would break it.

I do believe they may have a Loretta Lynn CD as well!

The Prince of Nigeria died this morning and left his 140 million fortune to his cat.....he had tried giving it away for years but nobody wanted to know.

Maybe it's not a very nice cat, and that's why no one wanted it.
