Stories shared with me by friends and family (i.e. crazy people). Cricket, The Most Stubborn Man My brother Cricket was ornery. I was helping him, typing a letter for him and he said 'You misspelled that.' I said, "I certainly did not.' He said, "It's wrong.' And I said, "It most certainly is not. I was a secretary for twenty one years and that's how it's spelled.' He got Websters out. So we looked it up and I held it right by the letter and I said, 'See, it certainly is spelled right.' He said, 'Webster was wrong.' |

They like, come around and steal your trash and replace it sometimes with treasure!” https://i.imgur.com/QKTkerO.mp4 |

Smeh "I work with this guy Timothy. He grew up real sheltered so he's weird about some stuff. The other day I asked him, 'You mind coming in early tomorrow ?' He said to me, 'Smeh.' I said, 'Smeh?' He said, 'Yeah, you know that's fine, it's no big deal.' I said, 'You mean meh. Nobody says smeh. That's not a thing.' He said, 'Yes it is! Like you're texting somebody and they say smeh.' I said, 'What are you talking about? No one says smeh.' He said, 'Look right here S-M-H, smeh.' I said, 'Tim, that means shaking my head.' He said, 'I know what you're going to say and...' I said, 'Tim, you are sheltered.' He said, 'I am not.' I said, 'Smeh.'" |

At the Love's Me and Mickey stopped at the Love's on our way back from the country like always. We bout never got away. This guy stopped us. He was a rambler and a mumbler. He was real country: born and bred just down the road, we got the whole story. His truck broke down and he's going on and on and he asks us which way we're going. Mickey says, "Just get in. We'll give you a ride." He says, "Oh no, I got my gun in the truck and I don't wanna leave my stuff and all. My brother Tommy lives just down the road could you just tell him I'm down here. He gives the directions five or six times and we kept saying "sure, sure" before we can get away. We pull up at this country house. There's a separate garage with someone kicking around in there. Mickey gets out of the car and yells, "Tommy! Tommy you in there?" He yells back, "Who' askin'?" Mickey says, "Your brother is stuck down at the Love's with his truck broke down." He yells back, "Which one?" |

I honestly didn't realize these were all from a current trip, and had assumed it was a collection of stories from the past. That makes it even more amazing! Thanks for sharing I enjoyed!
