    I have found, in my very adventurous life, that the craziest seeming people are often the most generous and kind. Yes, there are attachment or even boredom issues, but they aren't touched by that self-justified need to refuse help to anyone because fill-in-the-blank. You had a wonderful experience, Trevor, and these people taught you lessons about humanity that will serve you well. I would bet you can count the ways! Some of the scariest people have the nicest appearances. One of the things to garner from this is the relativity of place. The 77-year old woman was a central figure and also very happy in her place in the world. Living and traveling to not too many, but quite a few places, it is almost always true that every place has its people and its people who want no other place. And the concept of local celebrity is absolutely fabulous with needing to be absolutely fabulous.

Getting in a car with crazy people who are speeding and nearly dyeing, I think I have done that maybe a dozen times. getting into a house with a person who spend most of their teens up to early 30s in prison for murder or manslaughter, seeing people who are obviously severely mentally ill, yes all before I was 18 actually.

    I was hitchhiking from the beach with my 13 year old sister when I was 17. A guy who was around 30 picked us up and I got in front even though he asked for my sister to sit there. I had a feeling the guy was up to something so I started telling him we had to get home and get ready for a kick boxing match. The guy tried 3 times to think of a way to get me out of the car. Once he asked me to go in a store to get him a soda, but my sister hoped out and said she needed something. The guy got out of the car and got something out of the trunk. I took his registration out of the glove box. And I took my switch blade out of my pocket and was cleaning my nails with it I had also took my tee shirt off and exposed my shredded body. I said what was in the trunk Brian, and he paled when I used his name.the road to town was 10 mile with no turns. He started saying he was to take the next turn, so I said we would hop out then. You could tell he was pissed. When we forgot home I looked his name up in the phone book . I called and his 16 year old daughter answered and told me he was a convicted molester who spent a year in jail for fondling her. He was still on probation. She asked me to call his probation officer and turn him in. I did, and it made the headlines. The man ended up doing the whole 5 years.
