Default how lucky can you get?

Went to the bank this afternoon to make my wife's weekly business deposit. I had two plastic bank bags containing about $1300 each in change. I got one off the back seat of my truck, set it on the ground and went to the other side and got the other. I walked into the bank and left the other bag sitting there. I waited in line about 5 minutes. When it came my turn, I took the bag to the counter. I always sit in the waiting area because, even though the money has been counted, they have to re-count it. I sat until the girl called me over. I said, "That was quick!" She said, "Well, you only had one bag this time." I broke and run (well, ok, an accelerated walk ) out the door and to my truck. There I found this lil ole lady standing by the bag of money. She was waiting in her car for her husband who was in the bank. She said she saw me when I walked off and tried to holler for me. She stood there and guarded the bag because she could not pick it up. She said, "I knew you'd be back." I offered her some money as a token of my appreciation but she wouldn't take it. I found out her and her husband's name and as soon as I get their address......I'm sending her a "reward". There are still decent, honest people in this world. Thank God 'cause I'd be dead right now if there weren't.

If that money would have come up missing, then sleeping with the boss wouldn't be good.

Several times I've left a machine unlocked at the hospital. Employees used to call me but, now, they just lock it themselves.

When I got the second one out, I realized I couldn't tote both of 'em at the same time. Just plain forgot about the first one. Guess I was worried about gettin' back home to finish watchin' the replay of the 2005 Rose Bowl. When I'm in the hospital loadin' machines, some clown walks by and says, "Geaux Tigers!". I just lose all focus.
