Pit Stop No. 2

[Gib]

We had to close for a spell. We ran out of kitty litter to soak up all the oil spills here.

 

[Dan Todd]

There are oil spills everywhere!

I was working on my tractor in the garage once---spilled some oil on the concrete----well, Miriam wants it up like---"Yesterday!"----I ran fresh out of that oil absorbant stuff---so I used . . . well, for the sake of some who read the Pit Stop to see what the Pit Stop is all about---Blackbird won't use the actual word but the initials----I used KL!

Heard that the cannibal meat market had the same problem.

Catholics for $50
Anglicans for $50
Methodists for $50

Baptists for $300

Asked why. Answer: "Ever try to gut and clean one?"

 

[Dan Todd]

I would think that most Baptist would be too tough - even for the most experience cannibals!

Blackbird - repeat after me:
Kitty Litter
Kitty Litter
Kitty Litter
Kitty Litter
Kitty Litter

That wasn't so tough was it - it's not nearly as difficult as getting an Armenian to say Calvinist !!!

Dan - the kitty loving Calvinist!!

PS - watch out for those oil slicks!!

(Double post

- but Sue doesn't come here - so I can do it without getting a spanking!!)

 

[Dr. Bob]

I'm watching you, Dan, checking my list and counting the most
Of those who pad their numbers through double post;
Feigning that the totals didn't matter amongst the holiday glitter,
For even the decorations in the garage were made from kitty litter.

 

[Dan Todd]

Well Dr. Bob -

Who does pad their numbers most with double posts?

 

[Dr. Bob]

Sorry, that poem was not from ME --

It was from Santa. He's making the list, checking it twice, etc etc

Sorry for the confusion.

If one has a speech impediment which causes stuttering, would that not entitle one to legitimate double postings?

[Gib]

That's r-r-r-right.

 

[Dan Todd]

Sounds good to me!!!

Watch out for oil slicks!!

Changing the subject. Anybody had any luck with a battery recharge LAWN MOWER? I had one and loved it, but it broke down and NOBODY in Casper had a clue how to fix it.

I have NO LUCK with gas powered anything and the electric mowers (with 100' cord are a nuisance.

Just lookin for insights and help here.

battery recharge LAWN MOWER?
_______________________________________________

It works well...you do mean one's wife! I have never heard of a battery recharge lawn mower. Electric start, maybe! I use a riding mower which is a gas engine, but electric start. But then, I have 3 acres of turf to mow.

Cheers,

Jim

No, I'm seriously talking about a 20" cut push power mower that you plug in and has about a one hour charge. All I need for my lawn. Mulching blades.

Then take it back in the garage and plug it in to recharge (takes a coupla hours). No noise more than a sewing machine, no gas engine that is difficult to start and needs fuel, oil, etc.

 

[Dan Todd]

Goats make less noise than a sewing machine - and you also get milk from them.

I've seen those on the Discovery Channel. I didn't know they were actually selling those things.

Anything - so that we have more time to post on BB!!!

 

[Dr. Bob]

Some of us have TOO MUCH TIME posting as it is. Maybe we need to get one of the old fashioned reel push mower and spend more time exercising?

Good to think about it NOW when the snow is covering the lawn!

 

[Jim1999]

Let your fingers do the walking....through the pages of the BB.....exercise, one finger, two,,two finger four....then a whole fine bunh,,,ok "c" pick up the slack...bunch....

Cheers,

Jim
