Well that one about beats the band 40.  From certain referances I can tell the author is about my age which makes it even funnier for some reason.

I was lucky I had and still like, glass lenses.

Del, mine were so thick that glass would have been heavy enough to collapse my arches.

I think I can put him within 6 inches of the largest divot if you can get him to my front yard.  I'm out of FFFFg  and will have to use FFFg instead.

I don't think FFg would do the same, I think it was the faact it was FFFFg that caused the results to vary slightly from what you expected. ;D

I was thinkin' maybe his front yard this time. ;D

I can plow it up for you but you'll have to find it and put it back in the yard yourself.

One or two were friendly, most were intimidated.  Some of them still make their kids go in the house if I'm outside, and the youngest of those kids is 30 years old now.

It's sad when folks don't trust us, we have a very unfair rule at the store, I'm not allowed to talk to the new hires for two weeks, boss even comes by with new folks, "This is Glen, but he's not allowed to talk to new people for two weeks."   ::)

I broke that rule last fall on a guys first day, not my fault he asked me a question, besides that I was in the back room putting away boots when he walked out the door and didn't come back. ::)

Yeah, but when Rita was workin' there this winter, that two weeks was akward, Mary Ann, the boss that done made that rule said that included away from the store. ;D

The General Manager's daughter started working there till she's done with school, her grandparents own the store.  She said something about me havin' been quiet and I told her Mary Ann's rule and how she'd been there long enough now I was 'llowed to talk to her.   ;D
