He dines on road kill, blogs religiously, sleeps in a cave, and has lived for years without money.

In Utah, a modern-day caveman has lived for the better part of a decade on zero dollars a day. People used to think he was crazy.

Show your support by liking FWIW on FB and/or G+, where I post something worthwhile (illuminating, informative, poetic, comic, tragic, usefully irreverent, captivatingly absurd) sporadically, whenever the mood strikes. . . You never know what you're going to get, but if I'm doing things right, whatever it is should ultimately enrich rather than detract from your life.
