LA Baby
Chapter 1 I’m not intelligent to know all about zeros and ones (binary code) however I am smart about some things. Having survival skills has helped me along the way and I learned ‘street smarts’. Thieving is easy if you know what you are doing. Food at the corner store, easy. I did it without food stamps and a large backpack half empty out of the clerk’s field of view. Didn’t care too much about cameras and I went early in the morning. I’m in Los Angeles, California taking seasoned seaweed off the bottom rack stashing them for breakfast. Kimchi. I’ll drink water from the mission on Skid Row because I’m too lazy to take the chocolate milk. All week I’ve been waiting for my new EBT card. It doesn’t matter which state you have your card in and if you shut up about it you’ll have an advantage in other states sometimes. I have to be quick, no lollygagging.
