Tony's original reply of NOVEMBER 23,2004 made him re-think the
drying time so he moved to a shack far out in the sticks and now
only had a dirt road cut with deep ruts for a driveway.

Sheesh, gotta love those reading challenged folks over at Home

I haven't seen Tony post in a long while. I hope nothing bad happened to him. I know he was getting up there in years. I pray the gerbils didn't get him. o_O

Deep ruts for a driveway are good if you drive home drunk a lot. Just
follow those babies straight on up into the garage and never clip either
side of the garage entrance...
