      Di Monty my first thought after Mike's mom's story about lost purse: "how can you possibly lose your mom?". Took me a while... sorry for your loss.

    it is 12:20am here in San Francisco, CA. I should be asleep but no, no, I have decided to go down the rabbit hole of RUclips and after watching a lot of Mike Rowe video's I had to watch this because I know his mother (from previous episodes) has such great stories to tell. Mike had to share and tonight loosing some sleep (but it is okay I am unemployed due to COVID) it was worth the staying up and not letting the pause button happen and restart until later morning. No, no, I must watch to continue the downward spiral of the rabbit hole to sometimes reveals laughter. What a great time to live in right now. Virtually FREE entertainment.

    you can't make this stuff up. A compelling tale that sets my mind at ease, for some reason. every now and then, things actually turn out for the better. I'm glad I'm not the only person that sees other shoppers as belonging to a more modern era than my own, and feeling a little out-of-place sometimes.

    No doubt you got your humor from your mother - awesome family y'all are. By the way, my husband does a real dirty job of running a dredging barge. I'd give you his phone number but after this video.....apparently that wouldn't be very productive. lol Loved this video Mike and you and your parents' sense of humor. More of that is needed in this world. Thank you for sharing this!

    Ironically about 10 years ago i found a large purse in a shopping cart at wal Mart in the parking lot. the older woman sent me 200 dollars in the mail in gratitude. Knowing that the return address on the envelope indicated that she lived in less that luxurious accommodations I mailed the money back to her. I couldn't accept the money regardless given that an older black woman had once found and returned my wallet many years ago without any desire for reward when from inside of the store she spotted me walking around the grocery store parking lot with my head down searching furiously for my wallet.
