    sales is down, way down

    So it has been a week since the lesbians on frog hollow told me I wanted to much for a chord of wood, 180 it was. She was a previous customer who I did a lot of work for.
    Now, after she called everybody else she comes back to me. I told her I was out. I lied, I lied, I LIED!
    SO I put an add on CL it reads " sorry your mortgage shuffling butt can't afford to gas up the Navigator but the wood is 300, thanks."

    Firewood guys wanted 250 around here. Don't know if that's delivered (dumped). Wait till a cold snap hits, she'll be calling back again, and probably willing to pay for your hard work after all .

    My NIGGA... with cheese.

    Where do I keep my wood? In the wood closet of course. That was a stupid question.



    I finally found this ( this picture stuff is cool)


    That was back then. I also found a picture of the old crew.



    Well everyone, That about wraps it up for me this evening. Probably longer, at least until I can get Treeco's boot out of my arse. There is a good possiblity he might try to really make it stay there this time.

    Usually I am on the other end of this but what in the f%$# are you talking about? " others to tie to the post."?
    And for the last time ( well I might bring it up againbut for now) A TROLL IS SOMETHING THAT LIVES UNDER BRIDGES USUALLY YOU HAVE TO SOLVE ITS RIDDLE TO CROSS THE BRIDGE.
    Now here, I am just having a little fun. I don't see how anything I did now or really ever could possibly be construed as troll behavior AND that is going by YOUR description of the word. " It ain't me babe" But I love ya anyway

    Something just occured to me: I might have just confused myself on who Dan actually is. Is it me or is it Dan? People keep calling me Dan and I can see why but its Treemandan ,or more obnoxiously, The Dan. I am truly soory for any misunderstandings but its all innocent.

    That Beatles' song, Norwegian Wood, was packed with "underpinnings." Many people didn't realize it at the time.

    The fires within me lit whenever I listened to it. Then I also figured out that firewood prices always should increase when it gets cold outside. The demand suddenly goes up along with a few other things.
