Never did that as I recall. Gramps set the bar too high, there was no point.

Setting: intersection of a pair of 2-lane blacktops w/gas station and a country restaurant back around the late '40s. There had been a minor problem with someone stealing stuff from trucks and cars in the parking lot at night. He set a suitcase down about halfway between the highway and some parked cars, got something to drink with some friends and watched.

A car pulled up after a spell and a fellow of African origins jumped out, snatched up the suitcase. Gramps said they might have got into second gear when the doors flew open and 4 of those fellas jumped out. That was right before the bobcat did the same. He had been napping in the suitcase apparently.


I am..........disturbed.
