March 2006
I don’t know if the groundhog saw his shadow or not but spring
is just around the corner and I can’t wait to say I have to cut
the grass for the first time for the season. Nothing like the smell
of just cut grass to let you know its spring.
We've added some more things to our web site; motorcycle
lifts, stabilizer
bars, and weight distributing hitches.
If you want to change the way your motorhome drives, have a blue ox
steering stabilizer on your unit. I saw the item at the RV parts show
and when you see how it works you will say this is a wow. You have
more control of steering and makes the motorhome drive much better.
Look into this item, it’s a
good add on for your motorhome. We sent our service tech to the Blue
Ox factory and they showed them the difference with and with-out the
steering stabilizer on the unit if accidentally ran off the road. With
the stabilizer on the unit you had more control to get the unit back
on the road safely. One of our suppliers gave us a some great pricing
on this item this month, take advantage of this price.
Most of America's populace think it improper to spank children,
so I have tried other methods to control my kids when they have one
of "those moments." One that I found effective is for me
to just take the child for a car ride and talk. They usually calm down
and stop misbehaving after our car ride together.
I've included a photo of one of my sessions with my son, in
case you would like to use the technique. Click
here for the photo.
If you're looking for motorcycle lift or golf cart carriers, look
at Blue Ox products. They got a
nice variety of units.
And a little humor…
If you remember the Original
Hollywood Squares and its comics, this may bring a tear to your eyes.
These great questions and answers are from the days when "Hollywood
Squares" game show responses were spontaneous and clever, not scripted and
(often) dull, as they are now. Peter Marshall was the host asking the questions,
of course.

A. Paul Lynde: If you hold their little heads under water long enough.
Q. If you're going to make a parachute jump, at least how high should you be?

Q. True or False, a pea can last as long as 5,000 years.

An old cowboy sat down at the bar and ordered
a drink. As he sat sipping his drink, a young woman sat down next to
him. She turned to the cowboy and asked, "Are you a real cowboy?"
He replied, "Well, I've spent my whole life, breaking colts,
working cows, going to rodeos, fixing fences, pulling calves, bailing
hay, doctoring calves, cleaning my barn, fixing flats, working on tractors,
and feeding my dogs, so I guess I am a cowboy."
She said, "I'm a lesbian. I spend my whole day thinking about
women. As soon as I get up in the morning, I think about women. When
I shower, I think about women. When I watch TV, I think about women.
I even think
about women when I eat. It seems that everything makes me think of
women."
The two sat sipping in silence.
A little while later, a man sat down on the other side of the old
cowboy and
asked, "Are you a real cowboy?" He replied, "I always
thought I was, but I just found out I'm a lesbian."
Have a great March and stay safe out there.
