So when it comes to talking with total strangers, I have no problem. [:D] <br /> <br />Now, having said that here is a short Jim Story (we really haven't had one in a while [:p] ). <br /> <br /> <br />One day I was busy but the phone rang. I didn't have time to answer it and let it ring. After checking the caller ID the name seemed familiar. So I called the number. It turned out it wasn't who I thought it was. Now get this. North Little Rock is a population of 50,000 to 60,000 people. Than add another 175,000 or so (might be more I just don't remember) for Little Rock. The number I dialed wasn't WHO I thought it was, it was his grandpa. His grandpa was a total stranger to me. We talked for about 20 minutes. Later that day I went over to his house and he sharpened my lawnmower blade for me. Then some time after that one of my neighbors bought a new lawnmower and gave me their old mower. I had one already in better condition so I gave it to "the grandpa". Every now and then I stop by and say hello now, he is a widower and enjoys some company. [:)] And that "is the rest of the story".
