My Name is Steve, and I have to admit, I'm an Idiot

“Hi Bubba,” Steve begins.

“Glad to see you back!” says Bubba. “Please share with us why you are here.”

“I lost my dad last week!”

“I know it's hard to accept when someone passes away but...”

“No!” Steve interrupts. “He isn't dead. I mean, I accidentally lost him! I was bringing him home from the hospital, where he had surgery for a broken foot. I had his wheelchair tied behind the truck and was towing him home; somewhere along the way the rope broke. They are still looking for him.”

“That really was stupid! You should have used a chain!”
