that's a great story Jonny... (really)... donate that $100 to REACH! ...or give it back to Joaquin, really! I bet you could really make his eyes light up! ...and the dude could probably use it!
Thanks Tom, really. And ya know, I thought of telling Joaquin that he could just have the TV, but I suspected that he would have been a bit proud to have accepted such charity. I did split the hundred with two of my kids who have been faithful at helping us move, while two of them who have been slackers didn't get a "cut". But also, this evening, I did give a really nice "single over double" bunk bed to Joaquin which I had been asking $100.00 for, because he is such a fine guy. He was ready to pay the $100.00, but was really happy to get "such a deal". And so, life has it's blessings, and good things like this happen. Hey Tom, take care buddy. Like I said on that other thread, I'll be off line for awhile. But thanks for enjoying my stowree, which happened as it was written. Ya know, I just like to write, and the best way for me to make a "point" is to tell a story in anecdote form. That's just me. Take care,

Good for you! I bet that Joaquin really appreciated that gesture... humans caring for humans is good (said in Mongo voice)
And good for rewarding the workers and teaching the slackers a lesson!
