today. He apparently injured himself delivering the paper and/or collecting for the Food Bank in the neighborhood, but is on the mend.
Sounds like a nice guy, a Mormon–they do good works for the community like the Food Bank–social responsible and caring. I’m very impressed with their conscientious examples and work..
Anyway, no way I’d go back to delivering afternoon newspapers after 5 long years from grade 4 to grade 9, two streets worth daily except Sundays. Patrick’s injury reminded me of how slippery wooden steps and front porches used to be in winter. They ice over easily and you could really hurt yourself. No one in their right mind should have wooden steps or a wooden front landing in front of their houses today. Very dangerous in the cold weather and the stuff of lawsuits in our crazy modern world.
