Hey kid you got no class.
Hit the bums, kid. Run like the devil. Get a tin can and take up mooching. Knock on back doors for a nickel. Tell them your story. Make 'em weep.
You could have been a meat-eater, kid. But you didn't listen to me when I laid it down.
Stay off the tracks. Forget it. Its a bum's world for a bum.
You'll never be Emperor of the North Pole, kid.
You had the juice, kid, but not the heart and they go together. You're all gas and no feel, and nobody can teach you that, not even A-No.1.
So stay off the train, she'll throw you under for sure. Remember me for that.
So long, kid.

I am guessing that they all jump on trains since this is a common thing with all hobos.

Add "hobo" to my list of favorite words.

Pedro Fernandez did had a radio show about boxing when I lived in Las Vegas. I didn't listen much, but everytime I stumbled across it, he was saying, "He hasn't fought anybody yet, his last fight was against some hobo..."

sigh... just another tidbit of information about our state that happens to be so obscure, nobody who reads this will ever forget. Eternal association, begin...

NYC Guy: Iowa, uh, isn't that the one with the potatoes?
Chicago Guy: No, asshat, Iowa's the place with all the [censored] corn!
LA Guy (chimes in): And hobos!!
