+
====Old Lady Event====
+
<i>You're walking down a sunny street when an old lady with thick glasses stops you.
+
 
+
'''Old Lady''': Are you the Johnson's boy, Daniel? You look like you could use some money to buy your comic books and soda pop. I'll give you a few dollars to mow my lawn dear.
+
 
+
You take her up on her offer.
+
 
+
'''Old Lady''': Oh, wonderful! I'll just be inside watching my programs. Ring the doorbell when you're done.
+
 
+
Once she's gone you look down at the lawn and realize all the grass is dry and dead. There's nothing to mow. Plus you don't have a lawnmower anyway...
+
 
+
You stand outside the Old Lady's window making mower noises for about 10 minutes and then ring her doorbell.
+
 
+
'''Old Lady''': Oh thank you dear! It looks lovely! Here you go.
+
 
+
She pulls out her wallet, but doesn't seem to be able to see well enough to count her cash. She grabs a bunch of bills and hands them to you.
+
 
+
You get '''money'''!</i>
+
 
+
 
+
====Mailbox Event====
+
<i>While walking down the street you spy a mailbox with it's red flag raised. You decide to peak inside and find a fat envelope inside...
+
 
+
You find '''money''' inside! Nice!</i>
+
 
+
 
+
====Recycling Bin Event====

<i>Walking down the streets of the Hoburb, you notice it's trash day. In addition to the normal trash bins you see bright green tubs full of bottles and cans...
+
 
+
You pull all the cans you can find out of one of the recycling bins.
+
 
+
You get '''cans'''!</i>
+
 
+
 
+
====Hoburbs Hobo Battle Event====
+
<i>Another Hobo spots you walking down the street and confronts you.
+
 
+
'''Hobo''': Hey, this is my street to work buddy, find your own!
+
 
+
Before you can even respond he takes a swing at you! Crazy bastard!

====Gated Community Begging Event====

<i>Deep in the Hoburbs you come across a gated community. You use your great Hobo intellect to deduce that there must be some rich people inside! You pull out your trusty begging can and wait outside the gates...
+
 
+
30 minutes later you hop up and look at all the coins in the can. After a quick count you end up with '''125% more money''' from the people that dropped some money in.</i>
+
 
+
 
+
====Doubly Gated Community Begging Event====

<i>Deep in the Hoburbs you come across a gated community. The odd thing is, the gate is wide open...
+
 
+
You head inside and wander around through the pristine lawns and clean streets until you come to...
+
 
+
Another, even more gated community!
+
 
+
You figure anyone living in a gated community inside another gated community must be super wealthy...
+
 
+
You pull out your trusty begging can and wait outside the second gates...
+
 
+
30 minutes later you hop up and look at all the coins in the can. After a quick count you end up with '''150% more money''' from the people that dropped some money in.</i>

+
 
+
'''First Teenager''': Hehehe... okay, we've gotta be quick about this. If the Principle catches us tagging his brand new car we'll totally get in trouble.
+
 
+
'''Second Teenager''': Right. I'll be quick.
+
 
+
The Second Teenager pulls what looks like a spray can from a plastic bag and gives it a good shake. He runs up to the principle's car and begins spraying...
+
 
+
'''Second Teenager''': What the- this isn't spray paint! Where'd you buy this?
+
 
+
'''First Teenager''': From the grocery store!
+
 
+
'''Second Teenager''': Dumbass! This is a can of whipped cream!
+
 
+
Suddenly the front door of the house flies open.
+
 
+
'''Principle''': What are you kids doing?!
+
 
+

+
'''HoboWarrior''': You call that marble shooting? You're knuckling down while going for a duck on a roundster shot? What are you trying to do, loft it? It's too high!
+
 
+
'''Kid #1''': Oh yeah? If you're so smart why don't you try and make the shot then?

You see about a dozen high school age kids all passed out in the backyard. Empty kegs and plastic cups litter the grass, all circled around a still smoldering grill. Looks like these kids had one hell of a Bar-B-Q.
