It never fails... Every time I'm at the Walmart parking lot, there's usually a guy on his motorcycle with a sign that says "NEEDS GAS". EVERY SINGLE TIME. Or maybe you'll see the same people with their kids saying they "NEED MONEY TO GET TO VEGAS".

Either way, do you give them some change or a few bucks?

Maybe they need a NEW TACTIC! Something that will work better in Southern Utah!

Comedian, Chelsea Handler was raised in a split-faith family. Her dad was Jewish, while her mom was Mormon. The kids got to choose what religion they wanted to follow, to which Chelsea says “I grew up as a Jew and Mormon … so we had to choose and I chose Jewish, obviously, because Mormonism is so ridiculous."

You would know Aaron as Harvey Dent aka 2 Face in The Dark Knight! Aaron served a mission in Switzerland, but is no longer practicing. He told Entertainment Weekly “I’m sure people think I’m a Mormon, but I don’t know that I’m a Mormon anymore, you know? To be honest, to be perfectly clear, I’d be a hypocrite if I did say that I was, just because I haven’t lived that lifestyle for so many years.”
