HOMELESS MAN WITH A GOLDEN MAN PART LOOKING FOR BREAK LIKE TED WILLIAMS
Janaury 12 2011
Boise, ID – Only the most cynical amongst us can’t appreciate a feel good story like the one that has happened to Ted Williams, a man who just two weeks was begging for change and is now one of the biggest celebrities of the moment. Williams’ rise 
from nothing, from a life that had gotten away from him, to national celebrity and feel good story of the decade, has been a remarkable one to watch and gives virtually everyone in these occasionally dark times a warm spot in their heart.
With Williams now well on his way to success, scoring deals with Kraft, the Cleveland Cavaliers, and MSNBC, many others are already on the lookout for the next success story, the next diamond in the rough. Of course, many of those in stuck in rough are also looking for their opportunity, redemption for their missed opportunities and chances that passed them by in life. Many of those people will of course be passed over, lost in the mire once again with only their dreams to sustain them through their dark existences, but at least one man, 43-year old Mike from Boise, is determined to break through and make his opportunity happen, utilizing for the first time in a long time his own special golden gift.
“I fell into drugs and alcohol. I had problems, had a family, all that is gone now. I know I’m the creator of my own problems but I just a chance to get out, like that radio guy. A lot of guys in the homeless community really hate him, but I think they all just really want to be him, I know I do,” said Mike from his cardboard house. “I have a talent too, one that did really well for me when I was younger. It’s my man part you know, that part. It’s really special just like Ted’s voice. I can do wonders with it and I just want the chance like Ted.”
Williams was discovered by a local reported on an off ramp. He had attended school for voice acting before falling on hard times.
“Everyone needs help sometimes and Ted got that help. All I’m asking for is my chance. I know that a lot of people out here will say that they have the goods to make it, that all they need is a break, but that just isn’t true with most of them. They think they have something, but they don’t, not like me. I got something special and I need someone to help me use it,” continued Mike. “Don’t get me wrong, I know how to use it, I just need someone to let me use it in the way it is supposed to be used, know what I’m saying. Any people out there looking for this kind of talent, I’m here and waiting and ready to go. Just give me a chance.”
YouTube, the source of Williams’ fame, is unlikely to yield many results for Mike due to the nature of his abilities.
“Stories like this really are special. We are still in the early stages at the moment and once the euphoria wears off and the skeletons come out of the closet things will change, but for now this is a great story. However it is one in a million. I’m sure people will be scouring their local streets for the next big homeless star, we may even get a TV show out of it, but the odds are that this will never, ever, happen again,” said Scrape TV Media analyst Sarah Piper. “I’m sure there are plenty of people on the streets with hidden talents but this type of cultural explosion will not happen again, no matter the talents on display, so to speak.”
Mike has reportedly been cited a number of times for trying to grab his big break.
