I thought when my mom said she would drop things off at Goodwill, she meant a giant, hollow wooden wheel full of tumbling clothing called Good Wheel. I imagined it looked a lot like a water wheel at a mill.

How do you get wheel from will? Your mom have a weird accent or something?

Maybe. My mom does have a mild mid-western drawl, but I think at that age I just wasn't familiar with what will or goodwill was.
