Is that "poet" from Columbus still walking the streets? The one who ends all his rhymes with "help is on the way!" ... is he still kicking?

My personal fave was:

I don't lie
I don't steal
I just need cash for an extra-value meal
...
Help is on the way!

"Slippin and slidin' out in the snow, one day I was out here it was 40 below." We always saw him outside of UDF.

He's still there, walked past him down the street from the Newport. I got a good michigan rhyme from his for 2 bucks.
