StreetWise May Get Its Chapter 11 on

By: T.R. Slyder, TRSlyder@yahoo.com



The Chicago Tribune is reporting that StreetWise, the news weekly sold by area homeless, may soon be forced to fold.

Upon hearing this I became sad because I think that its an innovative way for Chicago homeless to earn a little money and get back on their feet and feel productive. Plus, the paper itself isn't too bad, either.

My sadness was assuaged later, however, when I thought about never having to hear the annoying dude on the corner of Clark and Diversey in front of Walgreens screaming at me.
