When people find out that I write a neighborhood blog, the second question they ask me is if I know anything about “the chalk guy.” Answer: not really. I’ve seen him writing, and he wrote once that his bike had been stolen — which underscores his humanity very clearly — but that’s about it.
There’s a new tumblr that collects those writings, suitable for your subscription and perusal:

I don’t know who maintains that tumblr, but I’m a little jealous.
