  The beggars sign, blocking his face, read "IN NEED, PLEASE HELP, GOD BLESS. I approached the able bodied pauper so I could take his picture. He immediately blocked his face with his driveling sign yelling obscenities and screaming I was stalking him when he was actually blocking us from passing thru with his baggage on a public sidewalk at the entrance to Sam's Club and Walmart in Roswell New Mexico United States of America.

While doing some routine maintenance at one of my rental properties in  La Bella Vita Homes subdivision, I was interrupted by a empty flying Amazon overnight delivery box. It almost struck me on this extremely windy day in Roswell, NM. The cardboard box had been neatly cut open to release its 6 pound contents delivered from Amazon Fulfillment Services, Lower Buckeye Road, Phoenix,Arizona. The recipient of the unknown merchandise, Caitlyn Garcia 1307 Alica Lane, appears to have removed the contents on her porch leaving the box outside her home at the mercy of the high speed shifting winds. I don't blame her for doing this since she likely was trying to avoid spreading COVID-19 by bringing the box inside her house, BUT she should have disposed of the box before I WAS FORCED TO!  In Kaitlyn's defence, it was kind of a fluke for  that big a box to become airborne and fly all the way from Sorrento to La Bella Vita, but she is still a litterbug who should have bee...
