Amazing!! Stories like that give me a sliver of hope for our future. Please tell him our hats in NE are off to him and we wish him the best!!
Biden's most truthful quote ever came during his first press conference, 03/25/21. Drum roll please...... "I don't know, to be clear." and THAT is one promise he's kept!!!

I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

TTT For those of ya'll who may have noticed. I am new... I actually specifically joined ya'lls seemingly fun loving community so I can help my friend here. I can't help with something as far as helping ya'lls combined effort in raising donations in order to get the things he needs through funds. I do truly believe he deserves it. I find he has worked hard for himself in getting his life to this point and it's time someones helped him too. Thank you birdwatcher for helping this young man. Amazing too how with his own life dilemmas he still puts an effort in still being able to help others... But what I can help in is letting other people view this thread. by keeping it alive for just a few more days.

Twenty-one I think I responded to everyone by PM so far. I might be offline or 48 hours depending. But I'll certainly check back in on Sunday. Thanks again. Mike

Hello Mike - don't know how I missed it before, but just noted this thread (and thanks to whomever bumped it).
It is so rewarding to read about Marcos and what you and others have been able to help him accomplish and overcome. He seems to be a most unique, strong. disciplined and giving young fellow with a ton of compassion for others. How good that you and your family recognized these things in him and responded as you have.
Liking the "helping" idea - please let me know where to mail.

I wanna say something but Can't till I have time.. Welcome to the fire. Tell us a little about yourself when you have time. You will soon learn about us if you hang a while. Maybe too much. miles
Look out for number 1, don't step in number 2.
