There was a trapper in Nenana in the 70's that would come to town hit the booze and drive his snow machine around town barefoot at 60 degrees below o.  Another classic is a drunk who lived in a shack and had a keg of beer, on a high stand outside the shack with a tube from the keg that led into the shack into his mouth as he lay in bed.  This guy always had a cold one in the winter no matter what.  Would he be considered homeless today?
