It's wrong to bash other people's boats.
It's wrong to bash other people's income and related lifestyles. It's wrong to bash other people's abilities or lack thereof. It's wrong to bash other people's wives or mates. It's wrong to bash other people just because they did it to you. That all said, it's important to remember that Scotty has a junk yard embarrasment of a boat, lives on a trailer park income, resides in a shack in a low rent classless area, and is married to a woman who looks like Ed Begely Jr. with a wig. But because he has class he won't respond to this thread since it's only a gradeschool mentality that feels the need to do so. (Apologies to Ed Begely Jr, who is a fine actor, drives an electric car and would never be seen with anyone like Scotty or the pet that may be his wife.) RB 35s5 NY |

I live in a junk yard, sail a trailer park boat and have no income ( other than food stamps). and is married to a woman who looks like Ed Begely Jr. with a wig. Have you ever seen my wife? No, didn't think so. -- Scott Vernon Plowville Pa _/)__/)_/)_ |

It dont qualify fer bein a junk yard unless its got more'n 4 cars or
trucks on blocks, or if all the old tires arent painted white and lining your driveway, its ok to use tires for planters. The number of old boats dosent count against you and neither does that rusty sheet metal you waz gonna build a shed with. If you replace the blue plastic tarp every 5 years it'll keep the rain outa your leaking doublewide roof. |

I used to love going to junk yards as it was a chance to experience the
weirdest parts of culture. The people who you were likely to see there looked as if they belonged in some artsy movie. Now all the junk yards have gone to computerized systems and they send their parts all over and rarely allow you to roam at will. Last time I was in one was when I was looking for a brake drum for a '58 ford F100 in the mid 80s. The proprietor told me tjhey kept all the removed ford drums in that old yeller truck over yonder. I went over with my old drum and calipers and the collapsed truck cab was filled with old brake drums which I started going through. After awhile I was fairly deep into the pile with my body almost all the way inside the old truck when DAMN, hornets. They were nesting inside one of the drums. Hit my head almost hard enough to knock myself out after being bit a couple times and then ran like hell. I soon outran em and thought i was lucky till I looked behind and DAMN again, the junkyard dogs were after me. They musta been trained to chase anybody running. I made it outa the gate and thought "Screw this" and went and found my JC Whitney catalogue, money savings be damned. |

Scotty,
Did you know that the term Swab comes from Roman times. A swab was a sick with a sponge on the end used to clean one's ass. Fitting name for Swabbie, isn't it? "Scotty" wrote "Swab Rob" wrote |

There's lots of silver tape (duct tape) on my blue tarps.
Does that count? -- Scott Vernon Plowville Pa _/)__/)_/)_ "J Beck" wrote in message ... The classy junk yards use the silver tarps! "Scotty" wrote in message ... wrote in message ps.com...
