i heard a drainbow/thief might be headed towards Arkansas. He goes by the name "Autumn", he's a 40 or so y/o with a big bright white round beard. He ripped me off recently and just about made me lose my house. He's been hanging in Indiana recently with his wife and kid. I've heard he likes Tea Time. It's always nice to know who the scum are early.
I'm bumping up this thread because I know this guy, and he comes off as very nice at first, but if you know your stuff you'll catch on to his B.S....be warned! Here's a more detailed description: He has kind of a nasaly voice, he's kind of short, stands at maybe 5'6" or so, probably about 130 lbs., his wife is a little shorter than him with very long, pretty hair that's black with a little grey in it, they have a baby boy. She often wears handmade patchwork clothes. He's tried propositioning me to travel with him and his crew and - I quote - get paid to "sit there and look pretty." Yeah, I didn't buy it because that little voice inside my head screamed two things, "It's too good to be true," and "he's a shady motha-shut-yo-mouth" - also anyone who points at the bar they just left stinking drunk and says, "I do all my business outside of that bar right there," I don't tend to trust. I have a very young and demure look to me, and I have big blue eyes, and I've always had a problem keeping predators at bay since they look at me and think I must be naive enough to fall for their B.S. He was one of those people that continually tried to get me to come along on his escapades (of thievery and deception no doubt). I work in a place where he frequented, so I was constantly exposed to him. I'm glad Steps posted this warning to people. I've had thieves try to rip me off in the past thinking I look like one of those people who will trust anyone who comes along...puh, they don't know how smart I am as a result Peace, everyone!!! <3<3
Hey I know him. He did show up at tea time this year. He had ripped of some of the tea timers too. He showed up at the kitchen and was asked to leave. He didn't so later he was literally chased out of tea time.
It's always better for people to know what's up with sketchy people. By the way, I wasn't meaning to say anything bad bout Tea Time.
this might sound harsh of me to say but, i'm going to any ways. it sounds to me like this dude and his "crew" are the type that you'd find flying a sign and panhandling. i have a problem tolerating these family members. i'm a street performer and i have something to offer in return for a little help and kindness. it really upsets me when i get run off of a property or a public side walk by store owners and cops for "panhandling" when all i'm trying to do is make an honest buck in order to eat and buy a pack of smokes. maybe i'm wrong but, most of the crusties i meet on the road spin stories while begging for change and when they've made all they can, spend it on booze and drugs as if they don't give a rat's ass about their own health. and these individuals don't usually get run off by anyone, simply because they're not "creating a public disturbance" by playing music, OH GOD FORBID someone to ever play a guitar in public!!!! i know this doesn't have hardly anything to do with the gentleman mentioned before. i just felt like sharing my opinion of crusty rainbow kids. it's not very often that i meet one that is worthy of respect. respect is not the right word, i don't know which one to use. i just wish the family would pay attention to teaching the rest of us youngins something about dignity because i don't see much of anything in my generation that is dignified. and i don't mean to just lump ALL OF US younger folks into a box labeled "schwag", i know quite a few folks my age that are focalizers and i love and respect them. but, as for the others i'm refering to, i think help and advice is need from our elders. RANT OVER
