I gave someone a jump at the grocery once several years back - blew out my alternator. Didn't discover it until my way home from work later. 1 a.m. I drifted into a repair shop just blocks from my house with zero power and had to hoof it home.

A few months ago some guy nearly in tears asked me to buy his coat so he could get some gas. He was really upset I would think he was a bum. I had no cash on me, nor my cell phone when he asked to borrow it. But I did manage to find about $4.50 in quarters between my purse, coat and diaper bag. We were so close to the gas pump he could push his car there. The look of relief on his face....
