Was on I-95 today and was assisting an older couple who had a flat tire, I noticed a lot of stuff they had piled in the back of the van a lot looked antique-ish after we got the tire back on I told them I love antique stuff and collect a lot of civil war and 18th century stuff. The older man opened the back of the van and pulled this Howdy Doody box out and handed it to me and told me to open the box after they left which i did and SURPRISE... old 1940 Howdy Doody doll... :laughing7: what a first, the odd people i meet every day, i tell yah!!! :icon_scratch: :headbang:

I always try to help people and share my enthusiasm for what I enjoy. It's paid off several times by giving my good hunts.
 

Wow, cool karma! :notworthy:
 

Good Karma back at you! I'm sure it is worth a few boxtops. Congrats and HH, Mike

good for you for helping them out!
 

No good deed goes unnoticed... Nice of you to help them out and that's and awesome thank you gift..
 

What goes around comes around!!!! KUDOS on the act of kindness!!!! CONGRATS.. HH
 

Cool...but creepy. Hopefully it's not possessed and they were trying to pawn it off on you! Sleep with one eye open, or keep Mr. Doody in a locked box!
 

Fantastic reward for a great deed!
