I saw this horrific story on the news today about a man who was lying in bed and a sinkhole swallowed him up.  His brother, who heard the loud noises this caused from another room, rushed to save him, and even jumped in the sinkhole but couldn’t find his brother. So far, this story doesn’t have a happy ending, as the man hasn’t been found.

When I heard this, I thought of my brothers, and immediately texted them and asked if they would have jumped in the sinkhole to save me.

Zach quickly replied “Why of course!”

Jason is just as quick, but his answer is a little different. “No. I’d throw you a rope.”

This says something about their psyche I’m sure. Who’s the better brother?  That could be debated, but from my end of the conversation, Zach’s the most devoted.  Dad had another point of view. When I told him the conversation.  He said “Jason had better have two ropes.”  Hmmmm….
