The homeless guy.  We hear more stuff like this in [[The Street]] and possibly elsewhere.  There's something about these mad rants...something fascinating about how the usual societal rules of conversation and speech are forgotten by these folks, allowing them to express themselves in pure, unfiltered ways that could make what we hear a uniquely genuine reflection of what's inside them.  You don't get that kind of honesty from someone at a cocktail party who's got his guard up.
