A blog about the activities of Pimp This Bum in Houston, TX

Tim Edwards gets an apartment.

Tim and I have been preparing to move into an apartment for weeks. We just picked up Zach Ryan, just in time for him to help us move! Woot! ;) Tim now lives in close proximity to work, 12 step meetings, and the grocery store. This gives him the freedom he needs. Tim can now travel via his bike, purchased thanks to 'Charkeebear' and 'DanFan' from the PTB Chat. Tim is working hard at his machinist job, and we are hearing great things from his boss. He tells us Tim's quality of work is top notch. We were written about this week in a local newspaper: Free Press Houston. Editor's note: Tim's mother was not homeless :). Everything else in the article was super!So, it will be a long weekend. I hope Zach, Tim and I can all make it through without killing eachother ;). I'm very excited to share with the world all the nitty gritty details of PimpThisBum that were not able ot be conveyed through the website, but will be able to throught the documentary. This blog will be retroactively updated for the past 7 months. We are accepting anyone who wants to duplicate the system of PTB. If you are interested, please email Sean at sean.dolan@ascendgence.com to get your account set up. You can upload pictures of the person you are trying to help, blog about your experience, and share any video or audio you have the capabilities to upload. I will be available for technical assistance. I can't wait until PimpThisBum grows into an international focal point for success stories of other people just like Tim. With a bright outlook for the future, I will end this blog. Thank you everyone for all the love and support. Issac GoeckeritzBecca GoeckeritzIgfilmsUintah United
