I've got to take that sign off the front of my truck!

[em-man]

"...I like those old farm trucks. With all those look-alike jelly bean vehicles out there, the old farm trucks are about the only ones with any character. I especially like the ones with the big notch in the tailgate from putting a really heavy pipe in there. Or did they back up into a pole with the tailgate down?..."

No. That's where the tree we were cutting down fell across the truck. *AFTER* we moved it so the tree wouldn't fall across the truck...

Evidently there's a sign on the front of my car says
"SWERVE TOWARDS ME" to oncoming vehicles.

There must be some sort of sensor in the steering wheel or seat of the suburban. When I have had a bad day a sign comes on that says "Driver is a lawyer-feel free to f with him."

But I did succeed in missing the mailbox, which I had turned around in my seat to look out for. The crash of the front axle into the telephone pole snapped my back into place, which had been bothering me for years after I wrenched it pushing my old VW Bug.

Never, NEVER, NEVER tell a lawyer your back is not injured!!

Recently I was riding in the National Arbor Day Foundation's shuttle van from Omaha airport to the Lied Conference Center in Nebraska City. You should visit this center; it is magnificent!
This trip takes you on the Interstate through Iowa. A farm family in a very old pickup pulled out right in front of us and our driver hit the brakes pretty hard. Quite upset, she asked me, "You know what Iowa stands for? ---- Idiots Out Wandering Around!"

My 2 favorite ways of doing this mod are:

1. Backing up close to a tree or pole and forgetting the tailgate is down

2. backing up a trailer (usually with a big round tounge jack in front), forgetting the tailgate is down, and trying to jacknife the trailer. Makes a very nice dimple for hauling pipe, etc in the future.

My old hunting buddy Larry had a fix on the guy or gal turning without signaling {Blinkers}. He would follow the BMW or what ever, stop beside them & say "Is your car still under warrantee? When they said Yes. He told them to take it back because the turn signals aren't working."Larry weighed abround 290 lbs.
