A mechanic was removing a cylinder head from the motor of a Harley motorcycle when he spotted a well-known heart surgeon in his shop.
The surgeon was there, waiting for the service manager to come and take a look at his bike.
The mechanic shouted across the garage, "Hey, Doc, can I ask you a question?"
The surgeon a bit surprised, walked over to the mechanic working on the motorcycle. The mechanic straightened up, wiped his hands on a rag and asked, "So Doc, look at this engine. I open its heart, take valves out, fix 'em, put 'em back in, and when I finish, it works just like new. So how come I get such a small salary and you get the really big bucks, when you and I are doing basically the same work?"
The surgeon paused, smiled and leaned over, and whispered to the mechanic...
"Try doing it with the engine running."

Earlier today (mid-day) on the B2 route between Vergenoegd and Usakos, inbound abnormal load covering the whole road surface. Es**rt vehicles in place and nicely done by all involved, but why during the start of the festive season ? High traffic volumes, especially trucks and fully laden vehicles on the way to the coast.

"In 1969, Cynthia Lennon found herself in an impossible position. Her ex-husband John had left her for Yoko Ono, providing only a modest settlement despite knowing she'd be raising their five-year-old son Julian alone.

Within a few years, money was running out. Cynthia faced a heartbreaking choice: sell the most precious items she owned passionate love letters and drawings from John during their teenage romance. Each one signed "I love you, Cyn." Each one a reminder of who they were before fame changed everything.

The letters sold for a substantial sum. Enough to keep her and Julian afloat. But parting with those memories felt like losing John all over again.

Then, days later, a package arrived.

Inside were all her letters and drawingsevery single one now beautifully framed and protected. They came with a simple note:

"Never sell your memories. Love, Paul McCartney"

Paul had been the buyer all along. He'd paid that small fortune not to own the letters, but to return them to their rightful keeper. No press release. No publicity. Just one Beatle quietly ensuring another's first wife and son would be okay, while making sure Cynthia kept the proof that she had once been deeply loved.

When asked about it years later, Paul simply said he'd done what felt right. Some memories, he believed, are too precious to belong to anyone but the person who lived them.

True story of extraordinary kindness from an unlikely hero.
