Check the webcam

****************************************************
I received this in my email this morning from a friend on island. So, here is the update that people were looking for. While it is sad, I think that it explains a lot.

He walked away Friday, still carrying the bottle of water he had been ignoring all day in favor of his liquor bottle as he lay in front of the web cam drinking all day. He has since been spotted all over town either panhandling, drinking or unconscious. He was setting himself up this morning to panhandle outside the Catholic Church when he fell. The ambulance came and took him away.

people aren't even paying attention to him...

SAd! Maybe its one of those 20/20 specials. Last summer a young man was passed out on the beach full sun. His friends were unconcerned and he was getting redder by the second. I threw a towel over him and they the friends didn't even blink.

at least it looks cloudy today... now he's stretched out!

Pardon my old eyes, but what is that? Is it a person?

at first I thought it might had been a dog, but now he is stretched out, so it's definitely a person!

I have been watching the webcam pretty closely and people have been paying attention to him, just not everyone.

that's good. But he hasn't moved in the last 5 minutes... He's passed out, but good.

Looks like he might have a pillow at least!! Thought maybe that kid would walk up to him, but no!!!!

That Blackout Punch will do that to ya! ...or so I've heard...

now how can i get back to work when this is going on???

can you imagine the conversations going on on that dock?

When's high tide...that will wake him...I hope

Oh my gosh I'm not sure if I should laugh or call 911.

Are my eyes deceiving me or did he move a couple feet closer to the water in the last few minutes?
