That's a great story.

Today you have lane departure, auto braking, all are covering with
patents and you pay for it in the car purchase.

So things have changed quite a bit.

I would have given the homeless guy a free meal, I would not have
charged him the $30 ;-)


My lawyer said I'm entitled to a profit.

I did something similar, but didn't charge him the $30. About a week
later, a holy man came to my door. Just like you, my lawyer told me I
was entitled to a prophet.

You are obviously not an atheist.

Atheism is a non-prophet organization.
