Editor's Note:

Ever hear the story about the contractor who built himself a home, custom-designed tohis tastes, with all his favorite luxuries-only to be locked out by a couple he had hiredto take care of the place?

Eventually, as a sort of interim agreement while negotiations continued, they built him atemporary structure, then a more permanent solution-sort of a boarding situation withinwhat really is his own house. As you can imagine, that didn't last too long.

The contractor is still homeless. His name is G-d. You can read more about His storyin this magazine, as well as about some of the current initiatives to resolve the entireaffair. It's been a long haul.
