Last night I went to town to pick up my girlfriend's teenage son where he works part time at a Grocery Store. On the way home my pickup truck started coughing and sputtering, and stalled out. I phoned a friend of mine who lives in town and asked him if he had some methyl hydrate, because I had moisture in the gas. While I was waiting for him, I had 16 vehicles go by us, and not one of them stopped to ask if we needed help, or if help was on the way. In town, or out in the country, I always stop to see if any body needs help, or if they are OK. Last fall I came across a single vehicle accident, and I saw the after math of a pickup truck collided with a building. What caught my eye was the dust flying in the air around the building. I stopped and helped the driver get out. What had happened was the driver took a drink of coffee, choked on it, and blacked out while still driving, veered off the road, and into the building. While waiting for the police, 30 vehicles went by, and 1 stopped to see if we needed help. One other time I was going to town, I noticed another farmer laying, an the ground underneath a feed bin, as I went passed. I turned around, and went back to see if he was alright. Turned out that he was just taking a nap. He was out spring harrowing, and felt tired, and needed to take a nap. When I was turning around to go back, I met 4 vehicles, and had to wait for vehicles to go by the lane way I pulled into to turn around. Nobody else stopped. The farmer was grateful that I took the time to stop to check on him. That's why I ask whats wrong with people today.

Today's Featured Article - On the Road with Dave Gohl: Auction Musings - by Dave Gohl. I was thinking the other day about all the auctions I've been to in the last few years. There've been many. Some have been very good, some have been well, disappointing to say the least. But no matter how good or bad auctions may be, we always seem to stay until the item we've come for or are interested in is on the block. I've been to some auctions near and far. I think the furthest has been the Two Cylinder 7 in the Amana Colonies last year. Lots of stuff, lots of people. I've also atten
