17．When I was in middle school，I found out that my Algebra teacher Mrs．McClure had gone to high school with Dad．
"Gertrude McClure!"my dad said as he pointed at her picture in my yearbook．"Same Old Gertie．"He told me to tell Mrs．McClure that he said hello．"When she finds out，you're my kid，it will blow her mind!"he said．
When I told Mrs．McClure so，she asked me．"What's your dad's name？"
"David MUrphy，"I answered．
"I don't believe it!"she said．
"What was my Dad like in school？"I asked Mrs．McClure．She explained that dad wasn't really known for having an active interest in his studies．Unlike my dad，I had more than an active interest in my studies．I was in an eighth grade math class even though I was a seventh grader，and I was on both the math team and the academic games team．I won first place in a national championship and I firmly believed that maybe those flavor of achievements would qualify me for 2.9% financing on a mortgage （按揭），a six-figure job or at least，get me some kind of prize for being a good person．
This was the first time that I had noticed that my dad and I didn't really have a lot in common except that we both liked to read and we had the same group of relatives．
Dad was on the football team and in the drama club．He was in the Air Force and was the kind of guy that made friends everywhere he went．I remember once when I was little，a bunch of British sailors from the HMS Ark Royal coming over to our very small mobile home one day．They played darts （飞镖），barbequed，and talked funny things．I loved it．I figured since my dad had been in the armed forces，he must have known them from then．But later in life，I realized that my dad was in the Air Force stationed in the Philippines during the Vietnam War and these guys were in the British Navy during peacetime docked in South Florida．The odds （可能性） that he knew them were slim．I asked my mom how Dad knew all these guys．My mother told me，"We took the public tour of the ship and you know your dad．"

16．My wife Julie and I were out on the road that runs around where we live．Two dog walkers passed by and we heard one of them say，"Never seen that dog around here before．"
We looked down the hill and saw an old black dog stumbling（蹒跚） painfully up the hill．We bent down，talked gently to the dog and patted it．I checked and there was a collar．There was a phone number on the collar，but no one answered．
The dog was painfully thin．It didn't have many teeth left and，well，it just seemed done．
Julie ran home to get some of our dog's food while I tried to encourage the dog to come along with me．Julie got home and back again when I was only half way there．So，we sat down on the sidewalk while our new friend made short work of the food．
Eventually we got her home．We gave her a blanket，more food，kept her warm and wondered what to do next．
After trying for many times we got a response from the number．A lady came around with a bunch of flowers for us．She explained that Tara had been her father's dog．She was very old and should probably be put to sleep，but the lady just couldn't bring herself to do it．So，Tara was safely returned home．
Here is the truth of the story：
Actually Julie and I were out that morning because I was leaving．She was trying to persuade me to come back，but I wasn't hearing anything that made that sound likely．
I was about to turn and go when an old，worn out dog walked between us and collapsed．Suddenly we had something more important than （our problem） to worry about．There was a creature in need right before us and we had to work together to help it．
We did help it．And here am I writing the story in my own home，in my own family．
