Funny (and a little sad) Costco story- I'm trying to back up, in my van, fully loaded with 5 Samsonite suitcases- I cannot see out of the rear window- and I ask the lady behind me to help me back out. At this point the man behind HER went ballistic. HE raced around us in his car, screaming at us as he went. From the other side of the parking lot, I could hear "You two are not the only people in the world..." Ok fine- it is because I did not want to run over the other people in this world that I asked for help in the first place. So I start to back up very slowly, with help- and suddenly this man jumps in front of my car "HOW DO YOU LIKE IT" he screams- "now you have to wait" I opened my door, and said ever so politely- "I don't mind waiting a bit if it means I won't be running someone over." I was just about to ask him if he was having a bad day, and if he needed a hug (which I have done before with interesting results)when he leaped (yes, leaped- like that little leap plus turn John Belushi did in Animal House) and sprinted away- turning every once and a while to glare at me- I smiled and waived. I worry about people who are driving around that angry. I hope he gets home safely.
