I totally forgot to tell you goys about the Vietnamese guy.
Last week, this fellow with a Vietnamese passport and US green card showed up at the night shelter. He spoke no English, but had an address in a neighboring county plastered all over himself and his luggage. I negotiated a fare with him and dropped him off there.
Fast forward several days, and the same guy is dropped off at the night shelter again. Shane, ever the theorist and experimentalist, devised a plan.
I again took the guy's money and drove to a Vietnamese restaurant on the south side so he could get help from someone who speaks Vietnamese. The chap at the restaurant talked to the lost man for a bit, then told me to take him to the Vietnamese Catholic church, also on the south side. I took him there and dropped him off.
