A guy gets a flat tire on a twisty mnt road, right across the fence of a mental institution.
It so happens the institutionalized are out for their daily fence walk.
One guy stops to enjoy the tire change event. . .with his face up against, and his fingers through the metal mesh, he shouts to the motorist
"Righty-Tighty -Lefty-Loosey"
The motorist, feeling rather uncomfortable peeps out a 'thanks' and thinks; 'lefty' isnt the only thing 'loosey.'
The motorist hurries along, set down the spare, pops the hub cap, removes the lugs, sets them neatly in the hub-cap.
He removes the blown tire and moves to carry it to the trunk when he is startled by
"Righty-Tighty -Lefty-Loosey"
The motoist jumps and realizes to his horror that he has just kicked the hub-cap, full of lugnuts over the steep roadside embankment.
His mind racing he wonders if he should approach the guy on the fence to fetch help.
Suddenly he hears
"A nut from each other wheel will get you home." The motorist is again thankful, and this time gives the guy on the fence a sincere 'thank-you'.
The guy on the fence replies, "sure . . . no problem. . . I may be crazy, but I'm not
stupid.
