2. Go out into a wet, cold, rainy, soaking wet junkyard
to look for a used bumper for my car.

Even though they goofed up and the bumper was the wrong year, I brought them Dunkin Donuts anyway.

10. You know who I feel really sad for?
The person who takes the baby dairy cows away from thier mothers before they can nurse, so they can go to the veal factory. That must tear a person up inside, but as long as people drink cow's milk the babies that would otherwise drink that milk have to go somewhere.

It'd tear me up tugging the calves away and watching thier mothers try to follow, listening to them call out to each other. I pity the man who takes the calves away, because if he's human at all he must die a little inside every time.

I know I would.
