Gasoline Can

Returning from a Crumbl run with a selection of premiere cookies, noted a walker ambling along the side of the parkway waving a bright red one-gallon gasoline can. One might assume having run out of gas, now making his way to the nearest gas station, which in this case was several miles away. Wondering…

Was the container an indicator of how well-prepared this person was?

Did he habitually run out of petrol?

Maybe his gas gage was defective?

Some unexpected life event intervened?

My wife had positive vibes to offer.

My first thought was, serial killer seeking his next victim.
