Took a couple of them shooting for the first time.
It was fun.
One expected me to pay her for the four hours.
I miss the days when we'd hit a midnight showing of my all-time audience interactive movie Rocky Horror Picture Show. That was fun! Originally Posted by native305I also love Rocky Horror!

That tops my similar one. I was late into a long date with a lady I had seen a few times before. As we were relaxing and winding down she mentioned that she was sad because she couldn't afford to fly to see her grandmother on her grandmother's 80th birthday that weekend--and she didn't trust her car for that long a drive. I asked where her gm lived and it turned out to be the city I was driving to the next morning.
I offered her a ride and she looked embarrassed, eventually saying she had a four year old daughter. I wound up driving the two of them there (about a 12 hour drive) and giving her bus fare back (tried to buy her airline tickets back but she would not accept them). Had a wonderful drive as the little girl was fantastic company. The family was delighted to see her (she had told them she wouldn't be able to come) and I was invited to stay for the birthday dinner. Grandma was a damn fine cook!
I never got back to see the lady again--my work never took me back that way--but we stayed in touch for several years and each Christmas I would get a card with an updated photo of mom and daughter that I had on my bulletin board at work.
This corner of the world produces many fond memories if you look for them. Originally Posted by Old-T
