Ben and Carol Stowell live beside a dirt road in New
Hampshire that becomes practically impossible during mud season. For eight years, people came knocking at
their door at all hours, asking to be rowed out. Stowell finally posted a sign: “Mud! Pass at
your own risk! If you pass, the
following charges will apply: To use the
phone - $5; to be towed out - $15; to have me come out and say, ‘I TOLD YOU SO!
– free of charge!”
The end of the mud season came, and not one person had
stopped for help -from Yankee
Sometimes you have to say what you have to say. Not saying what you have to say can affect
everybody.
