this thread made me remember something i hadn't thought of in many years ...
we had a guy back in my small home town wo was a 'bottle bum'
(i guess now we'd call him a friend to the environment) who would walk along the highway side picking up bottles for the refund. I dont think anyone picked on him .. his wife and kids were with him too sometimes.
he's a tall skinny guy with a receeding hairline - the remaining hair longish and curly - gave him a 'clownish' appearance.
The one day i'm referring to is the day i saw him, pushing his rickety old bike with the basket carrier along the road ... and he was wearing a tshirt that was made to look like a tuxedo.
it was the goofiest thing i ever saw - i wished i had a camera - a photo would have been good for some kind of award
