This one is not funny but true.Years ago they had huge auctions here where they had done some big job somewhere in the world and Charleston being a port they would ship the equipment here and auction it off. Naturally it would draw an international crowd. At the end of the day and the last piece of equip. was a pull behind vibratory roller. It apparently had not run in years motor open and stuck. Any way the crowd had thinned out and there were three guys together from south of the border interested in it. Well the bidding started and one of the three bid and nobody else was and the stick beater pretended to get other bids ran the price up to $3000. Well me and my brother were watching it all go down and the stick beater smiles and winks at the Auctioneer as they walk away. My brother walked up to the stick guy and tells him "I saw what you did" and the guy says "what". MY brother says "You heard me and if you ever pull something like that on Me I'll(cause you great bodily Harm)and I mean it". He looked at My brother and My brother says again "I'm serious". The Guy just walked away. It concerned Me cause the guy was about 4in. taller and had about 50lbs. on him. Ron
