Friends

My sister got married abour 2 months ago and on the day of the traditional wedding in Nigeria they was a problem with the wedding bands, so Nick who is my sister's ex-boss got on a motorcycle and went into the village to get them expanded.
Why am I bringing this all up?
Because sometimes we don't know when we are going to need people. We don't know if the people we are going to run across are eventually going to become our friends. So we should I guess treat everyone like a potential Bill Gates financier.
Nick met my sister in 1999 and 8 years later he travelled to Nigeria and got an a rickety bike in a country were white men are routinely being kidnapped.
So yeah
I was just thinking out loud.
