I'm actually Scotch-Irish-English and Swedish, I hate myself, the left hand always wants to fight the right hand, I like bad food, a peculier fondess for fish (swedish side?), but have impecable tastebuds for alcohol, and yes, I have a cheap streak, I say i'm Shrewd. I wont buy something because its cheap, I try to get that expensive stuff for the lowest price possible, how about a $180 LGB locomotive for $40?[:0] $150 Piko building for $50?[;)]

This ones pretty risky business so be warned...

This gave me the biggest belly laugh I've had in a lonnnnnnnng time......



You'll enjoy this one even if you're not into pickles!!!
-----------------

Yossel Abramovitz worked in a pickle factory. Unfortunately, he had a very
great and powerful desire to put his p*nis in the pickle slicer.

This went on for years, and Yossel couldn't stand it any more. So he decided
to seek professional help. He spent a few months with a shrink who finally
gave up and told Yossel that since Yossel's desire was so powerful to put his
p*nis in the pickle slicer, the only way to get over it was to do it.

Yosselgladly agreed to do it the next day at work.

The next day he came home from work very early, about 11 AM. His wife Sarah
was very worried and asked why he was home so early. Yossel explained to her
for the first time the desire he had to put his p*nis in the pickle slicer.

Heexplained that he couldn't take it any more and today he did it and he got
fired as a result.

Sarah gasped and ran over to him, yanked down his pants and briefs, only to
see his p*nis perfectly normal and intact. She looked back up and said, "I
don't understand.....what happened to the pickle slicer?"

"I think she got fired too."

Anyone remember the movie, Fried Green Tomatoes. I might be mixed up but wasn't that the movie where the middle aged lady waits on a parking spot only to have some little sports car zip in front of her and take the spot she was waiting on to park. Then remember what she did? [:p] She took her larger car and bashed the little car numerous times. [:D] [:D] [:D]

B T W, I drive a truck. Don't try to get MY spot. [;)] [}:)] [:D]




You're right about "Fried Green Tomatoes", but the revenge quote is from "Star Trek II 'The Rath of Kahn'" [8D]



You know I knew that and was even thinking it at the time, but still managed to type Wars instead of Trek. Just goes to show you how the mind works once you pass the age of 20 by a day or two. [}:)] [;)] [;)]

Actually the camper trailer is as old as the automobile! So RV'ing goes clear back to the teens! i saw a show on PBS that was a history of the camper trailer and how it eventually morphed into the moterhome of today.

Surprisingly i found out that back in the 1930's a new top of the line camper trailer was a better buy than a new home! It was less expensive, had the newest kitchen appliances, latest plumbing innovations, insulated walls, better heating, often a swamp cooler AC, and it came with all the furniture already built in! Trailer camps were very very cheap to rent space in, you didnt pay property tax, and you could bug out at the slightest whim! So for people who lived in the warmer parts of the country often chose a trailer home over existing houses.

After seeing this show, I'm pretty convinced the origins of this urban legend are from this era, as many trailers were home made and it could be very easy to mistakely siphon the wrong tank to get gas for the Okiemobile heading to California...[;)]

The thing about urban legends is that many of them probably did happen, just nobody really knows when, where, or exactly how. Then again, there is a show dedicated to proving (or disproving, usually) such legends (Mythbusters). Most of what they disprove is a little outlandish anyhow, like a guy stuffing his washer full, then stomping on it to make it all fit when the washer mysteriously goes into a spin cycle. Something like trying to siphon from the wrong place sounds very plausible...

Sorry folk this one didnt happen, its in both my "The Big Book of Urban legends" and my "Collasal Book of Urban Legends"

Maybe it did somewhere in the deep dark past ages of RVing and is now the stuff of legend...
