Stranger Than Wal-Mart

"Some 138 million Americans shop at Wal-Mart each week, making it perhaps the single most unifying cultural force in the country."

Moment | Tyler Montgomery

I was going to print my essay for Eng2020, so I pu in one of my three USB ports. Aftrer searching the contents and not finding my essay I repeated the process with my other two ports and again couldn't find my essay. At this point I started to worry. I knew I hadn't saved it to my parent's computer but I checked anyway. No luck. I said my first of many prayers! I remembered that I'd been deleting old files off my USB ports two days earlier and just knew I had deleted my paper accidently. I started frantically using every bit of computer knowledge I had to see if I could find my delted essay. At this point my wife called and she shared in my lamentation. She also asked if I'd prayed, I said of course, but I'm not going to find it. In total despair I prayed a final time saying I know I shouldn't peay for help and be pestimistic, but it's hard not to. I searched my USB ports a last time, and opened a random file I hadn't before, and there, mistitled was my Essay.
