It’s part of NPR’s ‘My Hero’ series where listeners call in and talk about someone who helped them out and they don’t know their name but wanna say thanks. I heard this one while driving home last night.
This woman was overloading her car with 1500 lbs [680 kg] of gravel. She had concrete being poured at her house so was short on time. A guy offered to take the gravel in his truck. He dropped it off and left and she’s saying thanks because she never got his name.
He reminded her of her dad who has passed way. Opposite of cursed I’d say
What if the gravel he delivered was from an ancient Egyptian burial ground?
Then the Brits will surely be coming for it
