How nice. Not! I have a friend who has one of the strongest personal
faiths I've witnessed, and one of his favorite phrases goes something
like, "Forced religion is un-Christian."
I made one round trip from Ohio, and a second run to Florida in a truck
people didn't believe would make the city limits.
I resemble that remark (seriously). Had to drive from Fort Jackson, South
Carolina (Columbia, South Carolina area) all the way to Fargo, North Dakota
to help a friend many moons ago, in a clapped-out old 1979 Chevy Chevette
Scooter (Yup, AM radio, 3 speed on the floor) that had almost 300,000 miles
on it. That was a very, um, *nervous* trip.
There are a lot of other things like this that
have happened, including walking way from a totaled seven month old '83
Toyota pickup when a woman hit me head on in my lane on the highway and
the cop's amazed expression when I told him I was the driver, and Yes, I
wasn't dead.
And some people think it's all a matter of coincidence.
Not me! (read my sig line, heh).
73,
Steve
