| God taught me hunility at the gas station...
Last summer while in Colorado I pulled off the side of a mountain road looking for my own colors. I was horrified to see lots of trash, porn mag. and beer bottles in such a beautiful, natural place. I decided I would clean it up so the next person who came along could enjoy it. I picked up a bag and filled it up and put it in my car.
As I was going home I decided to stop for a drink at a gas station and pulled right up by the store front. The gas station was really packed as it was a weekend. I saw a trash can and remembered the bag in my car. As I pulled it out of the trunk it ripped open, falling all over in front of the door. Pornos and beer bottles everywhere The clerk, parents and thier children were looking at me and the mess. I knew I had to clean it since I was trying to clean up litter not make it. So many people were going in and out looking at me I got a broom, swept up quickly and bailed.
