on the subject of hobos, did you know that during the like 30's there was actually proffesional hobos so to speak, they even had a hierarchy and everything with a lead hobo, they were the people that got rides on trains and stuff, we actually had a former hobo leader come to this town and speak cause they are restoring a train station from the 1800s and 1900s
