    Memorial weekend funny.
    My friend has to take his daughter to Spokane for medical tests so I'm covering for him while he's gone (that's not the funny, tests came out OK thank goodness), needless to say he and his wife are stressed. He calls me in the afternoon to check in. I say everything is fine, got it. He tells me he loaned his newer CAT excavator to another guy, gets a call "it won't shut off". The key switch was messed up already, so he calls Lewiston CAT...
    [my phone conversation with him]
    ....of course it's Cat so its $16,234,888, they say we don't have one here a week out on the regular truck or $50 overnight from Spokane, great! I say, I'm in Spokane right now I'll pick it up. Can't, they say, it's at the warehouse and has to go to a dealer first. AYFKM? You guy's suck. I'm trading that POS in on a John Deere when I get back. Can yo.......agh......at......my....ish...
    [me] I'm loosing you..
    [him] ....ist....hat....I'm on edge with all that's going on, really appreciate you helping me out.
    [me] You're back now, lost you for a bit there
    [him] Oh, sorry. I just got out of the truck and took you off speaker. I've been sitting in the parking lot of this place called "Hobby Lobby" and my wife has been in there FOREVER! I'm going in to find her. I WANNA GO HOME! I HATE SPOKANE!!!
    [me] Haha...Hahahaha......Hahahaha!!!! Sorry bud, good luck and safe travels.

    Your friend needed to get her out if there before the Cat cost begins to look insignificant

    Just about to start ripping out fence posts this morning, get a phone call. Sprayer down. Ok I'm on it!

    No rest for the wicked and money don't grow on trees.

    Apparently single ladies troll Home Depot for husbands.

    I prefer Rona, its closer and the women on staff there are usually very attractive.
