Pwablo, I read that very same thread a few days ago now, and as I finished it, we rolled up to the Walmart parking lot where a funny looking couple were holding signs, sitting on the hood. The husband looked like he weighed 100 lbs, the wife closer to 250. I squinted and saw a sign that said

"PLEASE, NEED HELP. WILL TAKE ANYTHING"

I asked the driver to stop and I hopped out while they parked. After chatting for a bit, I find out that the trouble is that they're trying to go back home to Arizona from Nebraska and it was damn near 1000 miles. I gave that man ten dollars, I mean, how do you read that thread, come upon someone needing help, and not help them? So I wonder, how much good juju has that thread kindled? Speaking of good juju, thank you pablo. I am buying someone coffee.
