I was at the post office and nearly tripped myself and an elderly gentleman with a rug, I flipped it up and almost tripped has he was walking the other WAY and nearly tripped.

This was at the post office. Next, him and I are sorting mail and I start talking outloud about my mail. "Old Cars Weekly, Hemming's Motor News... another Antique Cars..."

He asks, "You like them old cars, do you"?

I say, "Yeah, it's what I do". and told him of my business. He owned a Model T Ford back in the day and several other cars. He owns a mill some 6 miles from my house or office. He got 9 feet of water in the flood we had, but his machines still work.

His name is Paul Barnes, and I let him know mine and my business.

We shook hands.

So I would like you to meet someone. You could be at the store, in a parking lot, walking through town and share how you came to somewhat 'know them' more.

This idea came to me the other day at the market. There was a woman behind me with more foods than I had, so I pushed my stuff aside and asked if she would like to placer her foods on the counter before mine. She declined, and to my surprise she almost became flirtatious with me. "You go ahead, you only have a jar of sauce and if I hold this basket long enough my arms may get as long as yours".

She switched hands smiling, and I smiled.

So, that's two strangers down... can YOU find one?

No, that would be my bass friend. He's 4 inches shorter me being near 6 feet tall and his arms are 4 inches longer. My fingers HANG mid Knee and buttock. His hang just above the knee when standing.

Yes, they are long I guess...

Wait a minute!~

Just participate in my thread or slag off, D-bag.

No, I apologise on behalf of these Friends Group terrorisers.

It's a good OP, but I can't see myself ever doing that. I don't even make conversation with the stranger next to me on a 12 hour flight. Well done to you, friendly mang!

Try it... It's a new skill I'm toying with after sharing my music actually.

Opportunities present themselves frequently, even in cyberspace. Openness has been my instinctive casual social and business modus operandi for decades as well as during the past years at RHP.
