I have found out though I have many country sayings I did not know I had until I met Doc. He even objects to 'hold your horses.' I thought everyone said that. But he insists he never said it in his life.

We drove down that way a few times. When we lived there, there was a diamond shamrock and Bill Millers b-b-q on the corner of 1604 and Potranco, now there is all kinds of stuff there. We lived there from 1998 until 2002. My husband graduated from Samuel Clemens in Schertz (his Dad was in the Air Force).

I, too, love to watch people and imagine their story. I have a feeling that this guy was just cheap ... and, personally, I think it's stealing. It would be interesting to know the truth ... I'm probably totally off-base.<BR/><BR/>When I read this post, it made me think of one of my bloggy friends who overheard a woman (who was driving a Lexus)ask for food from a food bank.

Then he is stealing. You can't go place to place just filling up your cup where ever you go.<BR/>Take care, ChrissieChrissie a.k.a.

Look at Medoff who is now accused of ripping off more money in a Ponzi scheme than anyone in history--billions! I think that little theft probably indicates a crook.

I assume everyone justifies what they do, but the rules for refills is EACH VISIT. <BR/>I am always grateful for any senior citizen discount I receive. I seldom if ever ask for it. Nothing wrong with it, that is just me. I see young folk who could use the discount much more than I. A very wealthy friend of ours has at times brought his yesterdays(?) cup in to fast food for his 'FREE' coffee. He B gone now, but I have thought of it often. How could he? These folk operate on a small % profit.<BR/>Jackjack69https://www.blogger.com/profile/12884137603402812926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2967955433805290702.post-12386139176737480742008-12-16T13:13:00.000-06:002008-12-16T13:13:00.000-06:00I would never have enough guts to walk into a rest...I would never have enough guts to walk into a restaurant with an old cup and get refills anytime! <BR/><BR/>Enjoy your day,.Missiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16602020006220886071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2967955433805290702.post-38594079642299752832008-12-16T11:15:00.000-06:002008-12-16T11:15:00.000-06:00Hi Paula,We lived in San Antonio, out near 1604 an...Hi Paula,<BR/>We lived in San Antonio, out near 1604 and Potranco.
