Here's another:

After an Occupy L.A. demonstration, U4ikLefty, Fire Walk Wih Me and I popped into a nearby McDonalds for coffee. A local Skid Row resident was trying to buy coffee but he didn't have enough coins to pay for it, so we said we'd buy his coffee. We weren't expecting what happened next. When the homeless man got his coffee, he promptly put all of his coins into the donation box for Ronald McDonald House.
