Local NuttersEverywhere in the world has its fair share of deranged people. I grew up in Wolverhampton and remember the Polish tramp who lived in a tent on the roundabout. Legend had it that his coat was stuffed with cash. More recently I notice the guy who spends his day pushing a trolley round Camden Sainsburys shouting, "Best of luck!". Constantly. Tell us about your local nutters. Points for details. Extra points for photos.

Speedo Manis the village idiot of Grand Junction, Colorado. As the name implies, this nutter wanders around town wearing nothing but a speedo, a pair of sandals, and a smile. When it gets colder and snows, he does, on occasion, enter out into the public wearing legwarmers, tennis shoes, and one of those midriff bearing half-shirts, all coordinated to his speedo.
I've talked to him a few times, and he appears to be a nice person, although he has done WAY too much acid and cannot form a coherent sentence. I've also smoked the gangja with him on occasion.
Speedo Man is married, with two kids. He has been arrested a few times for such offenses as peeing on a dog (because it was barking too loud), wanking while standing in his front lawn, and verbally assaulting a liquor store clerk who refused to sell him spirits because he was visibly intoxicated.
I want to be just like Speedo Man when I grow up.
