Yay! And WooHoo! A beautiful moon was out (not mine

So you really knew Bill? I read about him, and he had a rough life from what I gather. I'm glad he had a friend like you. I know about nursing homes, and yes, many of the residents wore diapers. My grandma did.Little Stinky Britches wrote: Sun Oct 04, 2015 12:49 pm Your post kind of saddened me.![]()
I remember Bill, we were friends, he lived down the street from me. And I miss him.![]()
For those of you who don't know, Bill, (William Windsor, AKA "Baby Man") was a constant ever-present sight on the streets of Metro Phoenix until 2009 when he died at home of unknown causes. (They didn't find him for weeks after he died, there wasn't much left of him.)
You can Google his name and find videos, pictures and newspaper articles about him. It's mostly local reporting (Phoenix metro area) but TV stations as far away as Germany and Sweden came to Phoenix to interview him. It is somewhat ironic, that the fame he sought in life, he actually found in death, because he now lives on in the internet. Google his name, and there he is, for all of eternity.
I met him at a Best Buy store in Phoenix around 2003. I saw him standing in the store dressed in diapers, rubber pants, and a frilly baby-girl dress. I remembered him from years ago on the Jerry Springer show and we hit it off when I told him I was a baby too, only I did not dress like one in public. (I have never really felt the need to.)
After we became friends, one time, we were actually thrown out of a local Mexican eatery, when, after ordering our food, the manger asked us to leave because, "People are feeling threatened by your friend wearing diapers dressed as a baby."
I will never forget that night. WTF? I said, you people feel "threatened" because a grown man is wearing diapers and dressed like a baby?" WTF?
Bill had told me that he was "trespassed" from most of the malls and shopping centers in the Phoenix metro area because store security and other shoppers always feel "threatened" by adults wearing diapers. (I wonder how they feel about Nursing Homes? They smell like pee and poop and everyone's in diapers.)
Although he had some money, and didn't have to work, his life was not easy. He was haunted by demons of his past, and those demons took the form of heavy drug and alcohol use (abuse) heavy chain-smoking, and he was always being robbed and abused by street-walkers and "escorts" who always told their pimps that Bill was "loaded with money" and he was an "easy mark" due to his constant depression and drug use.
I wanted to help him, but he had closed those walls a long time ago. Although everyone in Phoenix knew him, or knew of him, he had few friends. He preferred the company of "escorts" and street-walkers who pretended to be his "Mommy" so they (and their pimps) could score more drugs or rob him. His life was a sad life.![]()
Rest in Peace Bill. You are missed.
