SLOW DOWN - TAKE TIME (click here)

Some things in this old world are best just left alone.  Others are given special, almost sacred, positions and they too should be left as they are.  But mysteries prevail and klutzes are not and endanged species, at least not where my family is concerned.

A previously mentioned uncle (see the Ghosts of Max Meadows) and a friend of his, who later became an uncle through marriage, where the orignal "good ole boys" Now here are two guys that basically are opposites, then they do attract, in most every way except getting into trouble and doing stupid things.

One such occassion came to mind the other night from a situatiion, that at the time this happened, would have never been dreamed of.

Seems these two, despite not having a job or "visible means of support" acquired posession of a 1949 Hudson.  It is; to this day; questionable as to how they acquired it.  One said he ran over it with his bicycle while it was parked on a dark country dirt road on the side of Armbrister Mountain and he was tired of pedaling and the other said "Dickie Bought it", and since they drove it everywhere, and the police never came looking for them and no bodies were found, we figure it was neither stolen nor did they murder the driver for it
