Power was out
Went to start the generator
All the gas was gone
The fuel line bung was rotted away
Went to three different saw shops in town, NYET
Went to Pearson's
Kid at the counter said “We can get one up here by Wednesday”
I almost made it to the door and the owner came running up behind me
He said
Go down the street to Riebe’s auto parts
Ask for a smog valve grommet for a small block Chevy
It’ll fit, it’s made of neoprene, last ten years
He coulda just left me waddle of to wait till hump-day
Dint
Thought of the person before business
