I pledge allegiance to the flag of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. AND TO THE REPUBLIC FOR WHICH IT STANDS ONE NATION UNDER God INDEVISBLE WITH LIBERTY N JUSTICE FOR ALL.
AND ONE MONTH FROM TODAY ARE WE GETTING CLOSER TO THIS UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT PEACE REALLY IS? AND WHAT IS IT GOING TO COST EACH AND EVERY AMERICAN TO GET READY FOR THE SUMMER OF 2016! WE ARE HERE AND MAN O MAN ARE WE SO CLOSE TO THE REAL MCCOY THAT IS THE CUBS RULE ALL ACROSS THE MAJOR LEAGUE THEY ARE WONDERING WHAT DOES CARDINAL STEW REALLY TASTE LIKE, AND HOW DID THESE NORTHSIDERS FROM THE GHETTO IN THE GHETTO AND ABOUT CUBS TO PLAY BALL.
NOT IF OVER 50 MURDERS ARE GONNA HAPPEN EACH WEEKEND CHICAGO! WE MUST COME TO THE PEACE TABLES KIDS N ADULTS ALIKE. REMEMBER THE DEAD, THEN WE MOVE ON TO NEW DAY AND A NEW CHANCE TO BE FORGIVEN AND TO DO THE RIGHT THANG .
IF THEM CUBS ARE GONNA BE IN THE SERIES AND WIN A WORLD SERIES RING AND TRIP TO DISNEY WORLD FOR THE TEAM, ITS TIME WE MAKE PEACE. THE UPPER ROOMS OF THE FANCY MOTELS AND BUSINESSES THAT THRIVE ON THE MILE TO THE SOUTH END OF THE CITY TO THE FAR NORTHERN SIDES OF THE LAKE SHORE DRIVE. WE ARE A CITY THAT NEVER SLEEPS. A WORKING COMMUNITY OF HARD WORKING PEOPLE IN A CENTER POINT OF THE US OF A. i WAS BORNED IN A HOSPITAL THAT DOESNT EVEN EXIST NON MORE CALLED ST ANTHONY’S i THINK. mY DAD WOULD WALK ME AND MY BROTHER, i IN A STROLLER TO THE BUCKINGHAM FOUNTAIN! IT WAS MAGICAL THEN AS IT IS TODAY.
i KNOW ITS THEM DETROIT THANGS(TIGERS) BUT THE ANALOGY IS THE SAME WE ARE GROWN MEN AND WOMEN IN THIS OUNTRY AND SOME OF YOU ARE ACTING THE FOOL TO OUR CHILDREN AND THE LIKES WF EVERYONE AROUND YOU. GROW THEAVENUP@! JOHN F. KENNEDY, JR. ON HIS WALK TO THE SPEECH PLATFORM IN MEADOWDALE SHOPPING CENTER IN CARPENTERSVILLE, ILLINOIS I WAS PERCHED ATOP MY MOM’S HEAD AND AS HE WALKED BY HE STOPPED AND SHOOK MY HAND AND RUBBED MY HEAD. THAT MAN LEFT THE SHOPPING MALL IN HIS CARAVAN TO THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION IN CHICAGO THAT EVENING TO ACCEPT THE NOMINATION OF THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.
HE WAS ASSASINNATED 3 1/2 YEARS LATER IN DALLAS ,TEXAS. HOW CAN WE AS A SOCIETY NOT LEARN FROM HISTORY BUT REPEAT IT OVER N OVER AGAIN. I BELIEVE CHICAGO AND THEM CUBS COULD MAKE THE WHOLE WORLD SING A NEW SONG OF LOVE AND PEACE AROUND AT LEAST THE UNITED STATES BY SETTING PRECIDENT OF THE SOBERING UP OF OUR HUMANITY. THE DRUGS, ALCOHOL, TEXT MESSAGING AND COMPUTERS . ARE THE MAIN CULPRITS AND MONEY AND GREED THE OTHER. THIS IS NOT THE WORLD WIDE WEST OF THE FRONTIER. IT IS A SOCIETY STRETCHING OUT ITS WINGS AND BUSTING AT THE SEAMS FOR THE STAR FLEET ENTERPRISE AND MOONSHOT TO MARS AND ALL THE BOOKS WE WROTE ARE COMING TO LIFE AS I WRITE THIS REPORT. I PRAY THRU EFFORTS OF ALL OF US WE WILL SEE A BRIGHT TOMORROW FOR US AL.! GO CUBS GO. HEY CHICAGO WHAT DO YOU SAY, THE CUBS ARE GONNA WIN THIS YEAR.!!!

I need to get down there and see this B.s.
Heath Harris 7y
For real. This guy is new in town and has some great ideas. He told me to send people his way.
RØB Severson 7y
Is this intended to be a permanent setup? I am more intrigued than you might imagine! What else can you tell me about it?
Heath Harris 7y
Pancake, yes, it is this guy’s vision to establish a school in this building. He says he is talking with the owner.
Keep in mind this is my interpretation of the project. The best idea is to take up The Amish Hobo on his invitation to interested parties to pay him a visit – just north of 1st and O’fallon streets.
From what I gathered in our exchange, Jeremiah wants to bring together the skills and knowledge of country folk, the Amish for example, with the resources of the city. He talked about living simply for the earth, that the hobo lifestyle has much to teach our society about how to utilize increasingly limited resources.
He wants to give a voice to homeless (but he does not like that word – he prefers Hobo, which apparently comes from the term “homeward bound”. Bikes and bike trailers are an important piece of the university, as they will empower folks without the resources to own a car to be mobile and acquire the recyclable castoff stuff needed to build the university, while reaching out to a wider geographical area.
The plan also includes urban farming, and reintroducing basic human knowledge to a generation that may be the first in history to not know how to feed themselves without supermarkets and microwaves.
All of this is wrapped up in a rather lighthearted approach, with humor and art as the platform for spreading the word. When I spoke with him, Jeremiah seemed to be all there. He has chosen to come to Saint Louis (fairly recently) to establish this operation. I think he knows what he is doing, and I just want to lend what help I can by introducing Hobo University to those who might be curious via Flickr, etc. I have always found Saint Louisans to be a welcoming people, so if you are interested enough to still be reading this, go say Hi!
RØB Severson 7y
Yeah I love the idea. A friend and I have been planning a technology-free “hobo trip” for awhile now, this feller could almost certainly offer a wealth of useful information. Is he really Amish?
Heath Harris 7y
Half-Amish, Full-blooded Hobo. He is living just behind the stage area in the photo above. If you see his bike with trailer, he should be around. Just ask for Jeremiah.

i’m enrolling for spring semester! i came by here with some friends to talk to him this past summer since it looked welcoming — he’s definitely a very interesting guy, and, i’d agree, he seemed ‘all there’. just fed up with the BS like a lot of us. he didn’t mention HBU, but with these pictures, i can see the vision. thanks for posting this!
Heath Harris 6y
My pleasure, Mr. Alaska. Spread the word – Homeward Bound!

to tell you my story, you would never believe the half of this. my name is General Bebo T Hope a self appointed seven star General of God’s Army. The ‘Amish Hobo’ Jeremiah and I put the cornerstone on the Hobo university in October 2009. by December I was deported to an apartment on the south side of the university. but… before leaving I raised the flagship on the tent City(an actual tent city in Downtown St Louis right below the parking lots for the foortball stadium, fact I herd they wanna tear down the original university and put a 200 million dollar football stadium for a losing football team and occasional joyce Meyers convention, just jokin ms joyce. instead of givin me that monies and fixin the building for the rightful owners the homeless of the central states of America!! go figure) . As the head chef and bottle washer and coffee conussuer I helped the owne,r Mr Green, & two off duty st louis finests design and almost implemented it a ‘Whispering Winds Retreat’ (details laid out in web site hobounivercity.com)
Now I am a disabled veteran service connected disbilitys drawing a slim to none pension the army gives us but…
the rest of the story is unfolding before your eyes as I am resurrecting the plans and either a double vision on Lake of the ozrks area and st. Louis Missouri kinda a town n country retreats. for the homeless veterans and other homeless folks and right now I need your funds and dollars and pennies and gold to build this ship with wheels and legs to stand on. we can bring Mr Greens dream to life. over the past 7 years I have built this computer center hub I call it the International Headqurters of the Hobo Univercity. we are located on the shores of the Lake here in Climax Springs, Missouri have signed many soldiers into God’s Army since I left St louis so please call 5736470599 and we can chat a bit. as mr Bojanges can dance . God grant us Peace in our lives this day and forward.
In Jesus Name
we surrender all

“today is the first day of the rest of my eternal life… ”
I AM GENERAL BEBO THE HOPE CREATOR AND CEO OF THE HOBOUNIVERCITY’S MISSIONS FOR JESUS YOU TUBE SHOWS. FROM, THE SETTING OF THE SUN TONITE THE KID ROCK IS GONNA GET HIS GUNS… I LEFT BUT NOW IM RIGHT. MY CHANNEL WILL INCORPORATE CHRISTIAN VALUES AND GOALS OF THE MINISTRY I OPERATE. LOVE IS HEREE TO STAY..AS THE SONGS OF MY HEART WILL BE HEARD ACROSS THE AGES THE LOST AND DEFINETLY SLOW AS MOLASSES DRUMMER N GUITARIST WHO DROPPED ACID AT THE YOUNG AGE OF WHATEVER 8TH GRADE IS & KNOW THE BASS MAN WENT TO THE SPIRIT IN THE SKY,REST HIS SOUL BUT BE WARNED AND BE WARY THE GENERAL OF GOD’S ARMY IS ON THE LIMELIGHT TONITE.
walk tall Fear no evil for thine is the power of God’s holy Might
Jesus will have his throne and all the riches and gold will be
used in the streets of his Palace. Faith yet . It starts in the heart
take a long deep breathe. exhale.
We are part of this erasing the demon in this world, and it is not by the way you think. the holy Spirit has your back. He said before he left us Many will try to enter but only a few will enter in to the door of eternal life. The light is soon coming on. And to never be turned off again. the darkness this world has been in and the wrongful unheard of crimes and habits are just not Holy u know when your sinning. If you want to go to heaven DO THE RIGHT THING. Don’t wait any longer than now. Salvation is only a prayer away. Quit trying to fix the whole universe’ troubles. take your life and clean it up. Is your bed made. Have you swept the demons out of your house. Look around you . Love somebody. Show your kindness and gratitudes for all the blessings God gives you.
Amazing Grace!
As we continue on our Peace march and to give Love a chance, we must continue looking to the Heart and soul. the trumpets will sound and the angelic escort of our King will be the most majestic and glorious day of mankind.
Our defense against Satan and all his cronies is remember, take our two hands together and close our eyes while we are kneeling and Pray, Pray nPray some more. Don’t lose faith as God IS watching you.
