Man later, this is jest one of my beautiful memorys of my grandfather, my grandfather
Had a company he hauled trash,for a living and i worked for him,any way on with the story like I said it was December after Christmas it was cold and wet and a lot more trash then normal we came to a house that some one got an ice box for Christmas and there was the box to prove it, so grandpa put it in the back,thinking it would take up more room if we smashed it so we filed the box and all around it to we started to get full and needed more room, so grandpa said I will smash the bags down in the box to give us more room. So this 65 year old man got up in his old truck he put his hands on the box and stepped in side and in a heart beat he disappeared,!!!!!! This scared the hell out of me but before I could do anything I seen two hands come up and probe all 4 sides of that box trying to find a way out !!!! All the bags were filled with paper, so after I put more bags in so he could get out i laughed so hard I all most pisst my self. I miss that old man so much. Love you grandfather till we meet again.

That's a wonderful, rather funny, story. As a writer, I would suggest that you have someone edit or proof your writing before posting.

That's interesting because I knew a great man once, Herbert O. Morrison, the man who witnessed and broadcast the Hindenburg explosion. As president of our little West Virginia community, at 73, he got up inside a dump truck to free some coal ash stuck in it while putting coal ash on our icy drives and fell down into the impeller hole. Luckily, he only hurt his ankle a bit. I posted his story here under my story section.
