Yeah you're right. There's one thing I've learned during my six years here, you have to either find a way to laugh at these things, or help if you can.
There is an occupied house down the street from where I live. At the bottom floor a young woman takes care of 6-8 neighborhood kids, at the top floor is a crack den. Last year some crackhead and his dog died in a fire while sleeping there. We give them food, clothes and even furniture. My wife went upstairs and saw the room that had been on fire. The dog was just a black spot on the floor under a barely standing burnt-out table, the dude was in the bed, straight as a floor board. Everything black. Downstairs the kids were playing.
