With your Talent for scrounging up machinery...Id have figured by now,
you would have found a 5000 lb forklift for $50

When our neighboring cabinet shop moved out he gave his fork lift to
me because his garage was too small for everything. Not pretty, and
not used very often, but when needed, nothing else will do.


Oh, so you _haven't_ gotten a 5000 lb forklift for $50. Too bad,
better luck next time.

Bwahaa!

Reminds me of story of the "young lad" who would meet the college
president on occasions, who invariably asked "getting any Bs?" (This
was back in the days when a C meant "good work", a B "excelent work",
and As were reserved for exceptionally good work.) The young man was
unable to say he was, as he was getting straight As, so the President
would "console" him with a "Keep studying hard, you'll get one." But
one quarter, he did get a B, and when he told the resident hat, the
President was pleased, "I knew you could do it!"
