One of Grandads cows was down with something or other and we couldn't get her up. The Ag teacher said on the phone to give her a pint of coal oil.

Well, Grandad figured if a pint would help a quart would cure so my cousins and I pulled her head up and back as the cider bottle drained it's contents down her gullet.

A few moments later she damned sure jumped up. I wish I knew if she would have survived the pint.


The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time by the blood of patriots and tyrants.

If being stupid allows me to believe in Him, I'd wish to be a retard. Eisenhower and G Washington should be good company.
