A woman takes a lover home during the day while her husband is at work. Her 9-year old son comes home unexpectedly, sees them, and hides in the bedroom closet. Then the woman's husband also comes home. She puts her lover in the closet, not realizing that the little boy is in there already. The little boy says, 'Dark in here.' The man says, 'Yes, it is.'
Boy - 'I have a golf ball.'
Man - 'That's nice.'
Boy - 'Want to buy it?'
Man - 'No, thanks.'
Boy - 'My dad's outside.'
Man - 'OK, how much?'
Boy - '$250'
A few weeks later, it happens again that the boy and the lover are in the closet together.
Boy - 'Dark in here.'
Man - 'Yes, it is.'
Boy - 'I have sand wedge.'
The lover, remembering the last time, asks the boy, 'How much?' Boy - '$750'
Man - 'Sold..'
A few days later, the boy's father says to the boy, 'Grab your sand wedge and golf ball, let's go outside and have some short game practice.
The boy says, 'I can't, I sold my ball and sand wedge dad.'
The father says, 'What?! How much did you sell them for?'
Boy - '$1,000.'
The father says, 'That's terrible to overcharge your friends like that. That is far more than those two things cost. I'm going to take you to church and make you confess.'
They go to the church and the father makes the little boy sit in the confession booth and he closes the door.
The boy says, 'Dark in here.'
The priest says, 'Don't start that shit with me again. You're in my closet now!'
I found it!
I FOUND IT!
The only problem now is I have forgotten what the hell we are looking for.
Dirtpusher certainly has a great command of English!
Takes me back to the WW II aircraft factories in the UK.
They paid aircraft assemblers by the piece.....so called "Piece work"
The more rivets you put in on your shift the more you were paid. My old departed uncle was an inivator.....at home in the evening he would devise ways to drill more rivet holes at the same time. He thus increased his production by his own inititive and earned more money.........he wasn't very popular with the less inventive workers!

Beegie Adair has been my favorite jazz piano for several years....realy the best!
The car is a Autobiachi Bianchina Trasformable....sounds Italian don' you think!
I used my GoPro Black lot during my visit to San Miguel last Nov. Love it
Go to "San Miguel" under the index for my examples.
On Monday morning the Postman is walking through the neighborhood on his usual route, delivering the mail. As he approaches one of the homes he noticed that both cars were still in the driveway. His wonder was cut short by Derek, the homeowner, coming out with a load of empty beer and spirit bottles for the recycling bin.
'Wow Derek, looks like you guys had one hell of a party last night,' the Postman comments.
Derek, in obvious pain, replies 'Actually we had it Saturday night. This is the first I have felt like moving since 4:00 am Sunday morning. We had about fifteen couples from around the neighbourhood over for some weekend fun and It got a bit wild. We all got so drunk around midnight that we started playing WHO AM I.'
The Postman thinks a moment and says, 'How do you play WHO AM I?'
'Well, all the guys go in the bedroom and we come out one at a time with a sheet covering us, with only our 'family jewels' showing through a hole in the sheet.. Then the women try to guess who it is.'
The Postman laughs and says, 'Sounds like fun. I'm sorry I missed that.'
'Probably a good thing you did,' Derek responded. 'Your name came up seven times...
Thank all you guys for your nice words on the Bianchina restoration.
Restoring classic cars, mostly British, has been my hobby since I was 14 years old. In two weeks I will be 85 so this is my last restoration.....now to get on with photography, as a new hobby,and less demanding on old bones!
I was a golfer and would have loved to have played like Byron Nelson. I was a slicer, but I got all that cured by getting RA........stopped me playing!
Yes indeed!
They should forget about the Keestone oil pipeline....just come to my driveway.....after many years of restoring British cars there is more oil there!
Oh, and re a better background....I fully agree.
There is a reason for everything......the Bianchina has some engine oil leaks that I have to fix before I can move it from my driveway!
Re getting down low to photograph the Bianchina:
I tried that at first and it just did not work. It is a very small car and low photos make it look smaller and fatter!
I have an Italian book on Bianchina and note that all the photos are taken from higher up. Works for me!
Re the jazz piano on my YouTube video:
I love jazz piano and the very best artist in that field is Beegie Adair......check her out!
If anyone wishes to see what I had to do to restore the Bianchina, just go to YouTube and look for my video titled "Autobianchi Restoration" This will chronicle the first 2 years of my work.

Lakewood, as in Dallas? I hope to see your car at Dixie House.
Not in Dallas. It is Lakewood Yatch Club in Seabrook, Texas, just a mile down the road from where I live. I have been a classic car judge there for the last 5 years....but they won't let me judge the cars that I enter!
