Summer Memories

Any time or place, any anecdote or incident:

Summer: 1982(?). I'm watching my friends play Baseball when one guy behind me starts yelling in horror. A huge Dragonfly landed on the back of my shirt. The guys stopped playing and the batter says, "Hold still! I got it!" He approaches me and starts swinging the bat. This genius intends to kill the Dragonfly by assaulting me with the bat!!! The more I say, "NO!", the broader his swings get. The whole time I keep tugging at my shirt so maybe it will leave and before you can say, "How many fingers am I holding up?", it dismounts me and flies away. It flies in the batters direction tho and he starts swinging away at it again.

I was walking down the strip in Ft.Lauderdale in the early 80's with 2 friends. A car had stopped on A1A and there was a guy on the side walk hitting the passenger with a pipe. We walked right by the dude and as we did, I grabbed the pipe out of his hand and tossed to the passenger. Never looked back. We were heading to Summers to see the Allman Brothers. Don't know if that's twisted or not , but it's the first thing that came into my head.

Back in the early 80's me and my buds are having a summer Saturday night BBQ.
Everything is fine then a few guys come up to us from the road.
(bare in mind i'm in a really rural area)
Also, we have no idea who these guys are.
The guys say .... hey guys, what's up ? ... we just came from the bar and we're really drunk ... can yous drive us home ? ... we're not killers or robbers or anything bad .... we just want to go home

Me an my buddies look at eachother, smile and and say --- why not

So we tell them to get in the back of a pick-up and we drive them home.
It was about 5 miles away --- but we all got a laugh out of it.

Not what I expected but that is a story worthy of "The Dude" to be sure.

Yea right?, The whole thing was weird. But it popped right in my head. "This isn't trivial man" lol

Thanks, now I hate my memory!!!
