We promised them jackets and blankets.
And I said, where are we getting that?
This church has like no money.
But we're living in Greenwich.
Right.
But I'm going up to Bridgeport every day to work.
So we go to the rich churches in Greenwich and we say, listen, will you donate some jackets and blankets to these people up in Bridgeport?
And of course...
Of course they did.
That's what people in rich churches do.
It's like, you know, we'll go cook a meal for you or they want to do outreach.
So I'm living this life where I'm living in Greenwich and I'm going to AA there and all these captains of industry and lawyers and hedge funders and everything who are going to go to prison.
Everyone says, go see Prison Jeff.
That's my nickname.
That's my nickname at AA, Prison Jeff.
Go see Prison Jeff.
But I'm with all these very poor people in Bridgeport and they're only like 20 minutes away from each other.
And so I start blogging about it.
And it was like early blogging.
And I'm blogging about how crazy it is to like be living in like one of the richest towns in America and working in one of the poorest towns of America.
