I pulled into a service station and was fumbling for my wallet when I saw a figure pass through the watery blur of the windshield. The man walked over and tapped the glass. I rolled down the window and looked into a sad, dark pair of eyes beneath an old felt hat that had spent a lot of its life in the rain.
The man said, 'No use you getting out in this. Say what you need and I'll pump her.'"
