Lou was whistling as he passed by the bar on his way to a nearby tavern for lunch when he noticed a man by the side of the road calling to him. When asked about a replacement strap, Lou stepped up and examined the break, then turned with his typical smile toward the stranger. "Lou Dendy, at your service!" he said cheerfully and vigorously shook the man's hand if he let him. "I've got an extra strap just like this one in my cab just a ways down the road, in the barn at my house. If you don't mind waiting, I'll go and fetch it now?"
