Who’s going to look after Bones?  

It’s sure not Mom,
she’s got other fish to fry.  

Is it the state?

NO!

All they want to do
is lock him up,
send him away,
and make him work
for free.

That used to called
slave labor.  

It’s cheaper that way,
don’t you know?  

That leaves Bones
to look after Bones.  

Bones thinks that’s
the best solution.

Bobby, sometimes the "best" solutions simply cannot be attained...sometimes the best solutions are merely the result of the process of eliminating all the other "solutions."

So very good to read you again, my friend.

Yowl! Thanks dear Claire,

It's great to see you here.  Welcome to the forum.

I've changed it to give a little more emphasis.

Much Love Bones & Bobby

Sometimes it is better to be independent of the state.

Thanks dear Juju,

You have spoken the truth.  Now if we could just get the state to leave Bones alone.

Try never to get involved with the state.

Love Bobby

In Bones' situation I believe he's absolutely right.
It might be tough but it's life for some.

I think Bones knows a thing or two Bobby,

After all charity starts at home. If bones looks after himself then he can't blame anyone else if he goes hungry. enjoyed.

Thanks LindsayP,

You've got the right idea on Bones.  

He's got that "helping hand" on the end of his right arm.  He'll help himself to all the "stuff" he can.

He makes no "Bones" about it.
