You never let up on the tiny holes, do you?

LOL... with your father on the way there...needing water... and you knowing that all your ducks were lined up.. to get a jump start on the situation would not be all that illogical....
Have you picked all the berries up there yet ?
You could bring me some of them.... just to prove you really grow them...
Actually.... just dig up some of the bigger berry making vines...
Will get them started here...

Proof enough?


But better yet, why don't you come up to the farm and get those vines for yourself? There's a shovel already up there with your name on it.

I can show you pictures of ditches several feet deep dug by a two wheeled Gravely walking tractor....
But you prefer arm and hand exercise...

Smile Wow

If I did not know you are friends, this banter would have me concerned.

A smoke kit on your car would really help those tailgaters.

I could probably take that Neon in a rolling start race. 3 horn burst starting at 50 he would lose.

If anyone bothers you thats what your middle finger is for.

In real world driving, the people who pass me right after the light turns green are the same ones I often pass on the open stretch of road.

I remember a post a while back about a "Proximity Device" that blew smoke onto tailgaters. Might have to give that one a try someday...
