Courtesy Twisted

You need your own reality show.

Bob, courtesy is not really dead.

In my travels yesterday, I stopped at an Interstate Reststop to use the facilities. Just as I locked my car and headed up the sidewalk, a really nice looking young lady, probably in her mid-twenties, walked past me going to the same building. It was warm and she was wearing a halter, short-shorts and flip-flops, all of which presented a really nice view as I followed her up the walkway to the front door. She was about 15 or 20 feet ahead of me and when she got to the door she opened it, then turned and waited for me to go in, with a nice smile on her face.
I thanked her and then wondered why she thought she had to help me through the door. I'll just assume that courtesy is not really dead.

For sure not dead!! My little example of extending some courtesy to my fellow humans....I ran a 5k Warrior Dash race yesterday and we were all muddy, wet and sweaty. Men and women of all ages run this thing and I had to help several young ladies up and or over obstacles. Wouldn't you know it the best way to help a fellow warrior (young lady) through mud, water or over a wall is to boost them by pushing on their butt?? I mean it's firm and easy to grip and I even got a thank you once!! So I know they appreciated my generosity!! Hahahaha

I can vouch for courtesy not being dead. I recently ordered a CD through Amazon. It's a used CD, at a great price, but it hasn't showed up yet. But two days ago I got an email from the seller, apologizing profusely, and saying that she had received it back from the post office with the packaging damaged, and had just re-sent it. She went on to say that she probably should have emailed me before she re-sent it, to see if I still wanted it, but if I didn't, all I had to do was mark, "Refused, Return to Sender" on it, and she would gladly refund everything I had paid, including shipping. She said she's a "one-gal" operation, so the responsibility was all hers. I should get the CD Monday or Tuesday, and as long it's not damaged, I'll have no problem with accepting it (like I said, it's a GREAT price!), and since she showed me the courtesy of sending that email, I'll be glad to buy from her again, if she has something to sell I'm looking for. Like I told her in my response, I like supporting a "one-gal" enterprise over a megastore whenever possible, anyway.

She goes by ceasesmith on Amazon, if anybody's interested.
