Populations of Infinity
Another Frank Chu sighting along Market Street. Frank advised me that Donald Trump was one of the "corrupt ones" on this and the other planets.

Frank
It was early evening and I was walking around the Old Town Square in Albuquerque. I spotted him on a bench looking a little forlorn and appearing to need some conversation. I told him about the $2 Portrait project and he lit up and agreed to participate. Frank has a rugged look and I was surprised to learn that he was not from the southwest, but rather from Chicago.
Frank is 71 years old and has been in the Albuquerque/Santa Fe area for only a week. Twice married, Frank is hoping that his second wife will take him back and that one of his three sons will return his calls. He told me that he had a little bit of savings but it was being quickly depleted by his family. Being a former principal of a grade school, Frank is hoping that his teacher pension can survive his love for younger women. Frank told me his second love is a daily Starbucks and he’s hoping to find a job as a barista to sustain his relocation.
I told Frank I couldn’t help him with the younger women but would be happy to get him a Starbucks. When I returned, he was still on the bench. I gave him the Starbucks and $2; he shook my hand, thanked me and said “Ride ‘em Cowboy!
