I thought I was the only one, Batlord!

Please consider the emoticon when you decide what charities you're giving to this year. Consider: he has that happy, vacant smile on his face because he doesn't know any better. He has had no formal education, can't hold down a job and drinks to excess in order to blot out the pain of his past. He's actually quite an interesting icon, having served his time both in Iraq and Afghanistan, where he was decorated for bravery twice. But did his country remember him when he returned home? No, like millions of other icons returning from the war, where they had been useful, even invaluable in messages and texts, he found himself shunned, unwanted, a dirty secret no-one wanted to admit to.

And so he hit the bottle. His habit led to being evicted from his apartment due to not being able to pay the rent. His IA (Icons Association) chapter did not seem to be able to help, and so he turned to petty thievery, spending several months in jail, as he was not very good at it. He was released finally but just reoffended and again ended up in pokey.

Did you enjoy your Christmas? He didn't. He spent it behind bars, and is due to be released in two weeks time.
Please do all you can to help. Visit Icon Heroes - Home and donate five dollars or whatever you can afford. Thank you and God Bless America!
