Thought I might remind others that our "SCAMMERS" are alive & trying hard to get us. Advertised some dining room furniture in the local "Free AD" paper. Have received several Emails from the UK & France who are interested in buying. It goes this way. They saw the Ad and are interested in buying---Send me your best price & condition--.If you reply they will offer you at least $100 more than advertised price to keep other buyers away, plus another $100 for "time & trouble". Then comes the "Good Part". In my case the furniture was advertised for $200. He wants to send me $3400 in USPS Money Order by way of his "Agent" who will deliver the Money Order. I then send him the $3000 difference by Western Union MO so his Agent has funds for shipping & Insurance. And then I get stuck with a counterfiet Money Order. Ive read about this SCAM before with Tractor people using the Classifieds, but never had occasion to have it pulled on me. So when I advertised an Electric Stove for sale, I received 3 different "Offers". This is my Email reply and wifey sez I should just ignore them, but I had to let these low-life jerks know we are not so dumb here in the USA. Here is how I wrote it. "Dear COLLINS: Your SCAM is older than my Great Great Grandmother. May your testicles be infested with 1,000,000 fleas and you will soon scratch yourself to death. If this does not happen, try sitting in a skillet of hot burning oil to relieve your pain. As a last resort, Call 911. Have a most pleasant day & God speed your recovery."

With Ben, anyway, I can tell! He'll be busy working and I’m handing him tools and he says, "give me that..." and I’ve already got it in his hand or "hand me that....."and I’ve got the portable light right where he needed it placed to see. "Run in the house and get me a...."as I open th
