I will hug it and kiss it and call it Friday
Friday, November 20, 2009 at 8:25AM Yesterday afternoon, while Husband was at the gas station filling up his truck, he was approached by a frail old man wearing a wide-brimmed hat. The old man shared with Husband that he was a preacher who hadn't been fortunate enough to preach in a church in quite some time. Husband asked if that had left him a little hard up, and the preacher replied that it had and asked if Husband would mind helping him out. Husband opened his wallet and pulled out a five. The preacher looked at the bill, looked at Husband, and said, "Son, I wonder if I could impose upon you for a twenty?" Husband replied that he didn't have a twenty, and hearing that, the preacher shook his head and said, "Well, I suppose your heart's in the right place."
And walked away.
Without the five.
It's SoCal, baby! Beggars CAN be choosers!
