    You do recall what Iron Mike's philosophy was yes?

    "Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face."

    Was once told it was any woman you were caught with not your legal wife.
    Also, woman found by man while seeking "strange".
    I actually; year ago, had a very nice looking lady tell me "Everybody needs a little strange".
    Me; being young and not too worldly, did not pursue her remark. I often reminisce on her comment.

    I'm sitting here, with my cold coffee and Swiss cheese on rye à la Volvo, and I realize that someone's backing beeper has been on continuously for a half hour.

    No air brakes, no nothing.....just the beeper.

    I didn't know such a thing was possible.....

    First 2 blows go like this...

    1st to the nose, 2nd to the throat.

    A man that cant see cant fight, a man that cant breath dont want to fight.

    Ah. I forgot.

    The autoshift on my old truck would stay in gear unless I pushed the "N" button.

    The new one goes to "N" automatically when I set the brakes.

    My company doesn't spec reverse beepers, either, for which I am thankful.
