<p>A distant acquaintance back at home in Honolulu, dubbed Tuxedo Man by sister and me, idly traverses the city during the day and makes the grungy #4/#16 bus stop bench his home at night. Coming home late at night, I have had plenty of chances to scrutnize this fascinating figure for the past twelve years, as he cuddles with his treasured baggage. A man in his late 50â€™s (maybe older now because itâ€™s been over ten years now) he wears a dignified face that matches his amazingly well-kept suit, the only set of clothes Iâ€™ve ever seen him in. A red handkerchief peeks out of his breast pocket, and everytime a passerby sneezes, he whips out this handy piece of cloth to frantically scrub his face. His belongings consist of three plastic Safeway bags and no shopping carts. Hawaii has itâ€™s share of homeless, despite being â€œparadise,â€? but Tuxedo Man is truly impeccable.This gentleman epitomizes the ideal homeless character: well-dressed, sanitary and neat. </p>]]></description>
