Good chance she wouldn't have gotten in with you anyway Mike. It's a calloused world out there. I'm just not ready to give up my compassion and empathy just yet though. I'd still like to believe there's a special place in Heaven for those who'll help somebody out.
I used to wonder why my dad would stop and offer to help some of the people that he did,but I can see it now. I never knew my grandpa,but they say that back in the depression,hobos would stop around looking for food. They say grandma would feed them but wouldn't let them in the house. Grandpa would take his plate outside and eat with them. I guess it's in my genes. It hasn't bit me in the backside yet.
If smelling manure and diesel fuel and talking to a farmer who listened and didn't blow her off telling her to get it together and quit crying,kept her from doing something desperate that she wouldn't live to regret,I'm happy that I stopped.

A guy walked up with just a PVC fitting. I told him if that's all he had,go ahead,no sense getting behind me.
We got up to where two lines formed,he went left and I went right. The gal on the right had been there a long time and the one on the left was new. I was all checked out and he was still second in line. He laughed and said "You still beat me out of here". I laughed too and said "I guess it pays to be a nice guy sometimes.".

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
