很長一段時間後，我把這件事告訴了一位精通神秘學的人，他神情嚴肅地對我說：“賓戈總會在你危難之時幫助你嗎？”
“是的。”
“那就不要笑了。那天是你有危險，他留下來救了你，盡管你永遠都不會知道他把你從什麽樣的危險中解救出來的。”

老農夫的卡車
That Old Black Dog
基姆·格爾登 / Jim Golden
Once upon a time in my life， way up on this great big hill there lived this really old farmer. That old man didn' t have any cows， horses， pigs or chickens， in fact， that old famer didn' t even have an old farm wife to help take care of him. Everyone around town knew that this old guy was a very mean person. He was so mean that he could hardly wait for the rain to stop so he could run outside and chase all the birds away who were coming out to sing and eat grain on his farm. That is just how mean this old farmer really was.
