A real conversation that happened on the way to church.


"Please sir, I want some more"

Zach: I think begging is so big right now it has become a new sport. If I were a beggar I would have clever signs and then I would record how much money each one got me.

Amber: Good idea.

Zach: And then I'd write a book and sell it to other beggers.

Amber: Uh huh.

Zach : What a job. You can just go beg on your own schedule.

Amber (sounding a little concerned now): I think your job is pretty good too though. Right?

this reminds me of that scene in amelie when she walks by the beggar and tries to give him change and he refuses, saying, "oh, i would never work on sunday."

Question: Would the other beggars be able to afford Zach's book or would it be others looking for a new profession?
