Had an interesting encounter at Lowe’s this afternoon

OK. I will dust off my parking space story. Late 1980's or very early 1990's in Frostburg, Maryland I pulled into a Holiday Inn (I think) at 2 am. Parking lot is completely empty. There are 4-6 handicapped spots in front. Regular spaces are around the building and maybe across the tracks. No one is here, I park in a handicapped spot and check in. I come out to move my car and there is an intoxicated man on crutches yelling at me and threatening to break my windshield for parking in the handicap spot in an otherwise empty parking lot. I move my car and go to sleep. In the morning, I get up to interview contractors for a major construction job, the first bidder comes in on his crutches ... the slowly dawning look of recognition on his face was priceless, he searched for something to say and finally looked down and said "I am not going to get the job am I?" - he did not get the job.

You should have played the "its a small world" song...
