The Bad:

I was in the local grocery store and witnessed a woman exhibit, what seemed to me, to be quite the dramatic and implausible fall.  Without going into all of the details, it screamed slip-and-fall at me.  I left my contact info with the store as a witness should she go see her chiropractor tomorrow and discover a severely limiting back injury which could only be solved with a quick cash settlement.

The Good:

I was filling up Mrs Reno's car at the local gas station and the vehicle refused to start.  The gentleman in front of me saw that I was having problems and immediately turned his truck around so that he could give me a jump.  After the jump failed, he offered to help me push my car to the side.  Another guy saw us and threw his back into the effort.


So, that's it.  Initially disappointed in humanity.  Faith restored later.

I'm Even-Steven.

If you need some ugly to go along with the good and bad I can probably acommodate you.

I'm getting towed tomorrow morning, so there's still a chance for ugly.

The UGLY is when the guy sues you because your truck threw his back out.

This morning I saw that there was no sugar for my coffee.

But then I found the hotel all in one packs I keep.

So I had sugar for my coffee this morning.  Which is nice.

What about your license plate? Just has to write down or take a picture of it.

Had the same experience when my battery died at the Ben Avery Range (Phoenix).  Several other muzzle loaders helped to push the car.

I helped an 18 wheeler to the side of the road last week. He blew an injector rolling up to a red light. He was able to idle to keep the breaks from locking. But as soon as he would put it in gear and tried to put a load on the motor, it wanted to choke and die. So he idled while I towed him across the intersection to the side of the road with my bro dozer. I wish I could have gotten a picture.

Good move.  I've started introducing myself to strangers as Rusty Dace.
