This guy is such a trip.
on wednesdays he hands out free whatever he can afford. candy, bread, whatever. He blows the bubbles cuz people follow them to see where they came from.

i totally dig this guy. he does this just to make people smile. to make a difference, to make people stop for a second and realize how nice life can be.

if only we all could be so open to kindness.

Letter to the Editor: 'Free bread man' an inspiration

I would love to comment about the picture you had in the newspaper about a week ago. It’s a picture of the “free bread man.” I just wanted to say, first of all, that I found it very coincidental that his picture be shown next to an article about a Sycamore student arrested for bomb threats. It shows that a person like him is just what we need. I’m not on campus much, so I don’t know where he is, but I would love to join him! Instead of just a picture you should do an entire article on someone who wants to provide smiles and happiness to his fellow peers. I put the picture up on my bulletin board to remember that the entire world is not evil and there is still kindness in people’s hearts. Thank you, sir!
