Sharky just got home from work, late. When I asked why he was late (not nagging now, just worried lol), he told me that as he was driving through downtown Jax he saw a very old man in his car, broke down in the middle of the intersection. Cars were flying past, honking, swearing, flipping the middle finger, but NO ONE stopped to help. So, Sharky pulled over, and was able to push the car over to the side just as a cop pulled up to help. He left the guy in the hands of the policeman and then came home.

While I am very proud of my husband (he does stuff like this a lot), I'm also infuriated by the people who just drive on by who have the audacity to be ANGRY at the old guy. Geeze, that could have been their dad or granddad sitting there! Wouldn't they want someone to help their own flesh and blood? Or would they rather their loved ones just sit there, terrified and alone, as others harassed them for their misfortune?

OK, rant over, sorry...
