My Dad & impatient drivers...

My Dad departed this life over 10 years ago. It seems like he's still here sometimes. I guess that's the powerful blessing of memories. My Dad was frequently irritated by drivers who were "in a hurry." One day we were at a stoplight. When the signal turned green he didn't immediately hit the gas pedal much to the disappointment of a driver behind him. The driver laid on the horn. My Dad, without missing a beat, turned off the car & turned on his emergency flashers. He popped the hood got out and checked the oil. When the light turned red again he closed the hood and got back in his car. When the light turned green the next time there were no horns to be heard.
