@Acyn Cuomo used Bill to give his new station credibility as a station for both sides of the argument
Now that the station has established itself and is gaining in the ratings, Cuomo is going back to his CNN liberal self, and I’m totally done with him
He’s full of himself.

I drive Uber. Night shift mostly. Last week picked up an old man at 11 PM. He got in and said: "I need you to drive me to five places tonight. I'll pay you $500. Cash. But you can't ask why until we're done." Handed me five addresses. First stop: a house in the suburbs. He sat in the car. Stared at it for ten minutes. Crying silently. "Okay. Next one." I drove.

Second stop: elementary school. Empty. Dark. He got out. Walked to the playground. Sat on a swing. Stayed there twenty minutes. Came back to the car. "I taught here. 43 years. Best job I ever had." Third stop: diner. He went inside. Ordered coffee. Sat alone in a booth. Didn't drink it. Just sat. Looking around. Fifteen minutes. Came back. "My wife and I had our first date here. 1967." Fourth stop: cemetery.

He got out at the cemetery. Walked to a grave. Stood there. Talking to it. Couldn't hear what he said. Thirty minutes. When he came back his eyes were red. "My wife. Three years today." Fifth stop: hospital. He asked me to park. Wait. "This is the last one." He looked at me. "Now I'll tell you why. I have stage four cancer. Weeks left. Maybe days. Tonight I wanted to see my whole life. One last time. Before I can't anymore."

I started crying. Right there. "The house - that's where I raised my kids. The school - where I found my purpose. The diner - where I fell in love. The cemetery - where I said goodbye. And here. The hospital. Where I'm checking in tonight. Hospice floor. I'm not going home." He handed me $500. "Thank you for driving me through my life. You're the last stranger who'll ever be kind to me. I wanted it to be gentle. You made it gentle."

I refused the money. "I can't take this." He insisted. "Please. I have nobody to leave it to. My kids don't talk to me. I have no friends left. You gave me three hours of kindness. That's worth more than $500 to me." He got out. Grabbed his small suitcase. Turned back. "What's your name?" "Marcus." "Thank you, Marcus. For being the last good thing." He walked into the hospital. I sat in my car. Sobbing. For an hour.

Couldn't stop thinking about him. Went back next day. Asked for him. "Mr. Patterson. Room 412." Brought flowers. Knocked. He was in bed. Smiled when he saw me. "Marcus. You came back." "Couldn't leave it like that. Are you okay?" "Dying. But I got to see my life last night. So yes. I'm okay." We talked for two hours. About his wife. His students. The kids who stopped calling. The life he lived.

I visited every day for two weeks. Brought coffee. Read him the news. Sat in silence sometimes. He told me everything. The regrets. The joys. The moments he'd relive. "I thought I'd die alone," he said one day. "But you're here. A stranger who became family in my last days. That's a gift." I held his hand. "You're not dying alone. Not anymore." He cried. "Thank you for seeing me. When I was invisible."

Mr. Patterson died on a Tuesday. 3:17 AM. I was there. Holding his hand. His last words: "Tell people. Tell them to look at strangers. Really look. Everyone's dying. Some faster than others. But we're all heading somewhere. Be kind on the way. You were kind. You saved my last days." He closed his eyes. Heart monitor flatlined. I stayed another hour. Couldn't let go. He died with someone. That mattered.

His funeral had six people. Me. Three nurses. A lawyer. One former student who saw the obituary. That's it. A man who taught for 43 years. Loved a woman for 52. Lived 81 years. Six people. I spoke. "Mr. Patterson taught me something in his last two weeks.

Every stranger is someone's whole world. Every Uber passenger has a story. Every person you pass is living and dying and hoping someone sees them. He paid me $500 to drive him through his life. But he gave me something worth more. The knowledge that kindness to strangers isn't extra. It's everything. Because we're all strangers. Until someone stops. Looks. Listens. Stays." I keep the $500 in my glove box. Never spent it. It's a reminder.

@theblaze It’s true, so deal with it and Support the President

[Ed Krampf @Edrico42]

@nicksortor Wake up America
Trump is not the problem
He’s exposing the problem and the left cannot defend their idiotic policies, so they attack him
We should all be pissed off at the death of this beautiful and brave young woman, and the rhetoric on the left is 100% to blame for her death

[Ed Krampf @Edrico42]

@SenMarkKelly @JimmyKimmelLive This guy is now politically done
Adios my friend
Your a complete idiot

[Ed Krampf @Edrico42]

@AC360 All CNN does is root against anything Trump is trying to accomplish
I’m done with them and hope they go away very soon
They’ve learned nothing from the electron last year
Just turn the channel off and let them fade away
There are worthless

@greg_price11 I understand your pov
We can do better keeping them out of the hands of very sick people like this person, but if they couldn’t get a gun, this person would have found a way to kill these kids by running them over or blowing them up

[Ed Krampf @Edrico42]

I have lots of thoughts about the horrible shooting in Minneapolis today. Without trying to politicize this horrible tragedy it occurred to me that we keep razor blades and deodorant safer than we do our kids. That must change

@devorydarkins A future conservative is a current Democrat who has yet to be mugged

[Ed Krampf @Edrico42]

@ScottJenningsKY Can’t statistics for crime be down simply because they are down close to 1000 policeman and also because no cash bail is a disincentive for cops to arrest anyone?
