Homeless in Vancouver: 2013 works; why do I have to upgrade?

    1 of 1 2 of 1

      Wow. This happens every year.

      I’m finally getting up to speed on all things 2013 and there’s an automatic upgrade coming in just a few hours.

      What if it’s not as good?

      What if it’s missing features I’ve come to rely one?

      What if it takes too much of my memory? And if it’s a total dog, will I be able to downgrade? Ha! Not likely.

      Bottom line—same as every other year—I’ll just have to learn to like it.

      At least the calendar only has one upgrade a year. It could be worse—it could be Firefox!

      Hopefully this 2014 version will finally give me the ability to properly multitask, but I’m not holding my breath.

      Stanley Q. Woodvine is a homeless resident of Vancouver who has worked in the past as an illustrator, graphic designer, and writer.

      This homeless dude has a computer, camera, and money to buy designer brand coffee, yet no home. He obviously doesn't know how to do math either. I think this whole series is a joke dreamed up by Charlie Smith.

      The series isn't a joke. Stanley is homeless. He just happens to be a very good writer and photographer.

      Happy New Year Stanley!
      So enjoy your blog.

      BTW-your "designer coffee" looks yummy. Hope you enjoyed it and have many more great coffees in 2014.
