His mother used to tell him, "A stitch in time saves nine."
If only he had listened.
Had he filled his gas tank yesterday, he wouldn't have run out of gas.
Had he not run out of gas, he wouldn't have been walking when it started to rain.
Had he not been caught in the rain, he wouldn't have ducked into the mall.
Had he not been in the mall, he wouldn't have bought a ticket to see the American version of The Girl With The Dragon Tatoo.
And, that's how he got food poisoning from spoiled butter on the popcorn.
