The section of Illinois we live in is self described as Forgottonia. Our tax money leaves and they forget that we need infrastructure too. We even have a newspaper, the Forgottonia times.

 I bought a new comb at the barber shop even though I'm bald on top. I told the barber I still carry a comb. I just can't part with it.

  We were walking through my car show yesterday when we looked at the engine in a Corvair. My brother's grandson spotted a deep socket laying in the crossmember under the engine. We pointed it out to the owner, and I predicted that it was a 10mm. He said no, there weren't any metric bolts in a Corvair, I agreed but said it's still a 10mm, I was wrong, it was 11mm. He gave it to the kid.

And here I thought the Corvair was just ahead of its time: isn't that the [metric] socket for all of it's 0.25" nuts?

 We (my car club) put on a car cruise for a local older folks association, (OAKS) since we just brought the cars and the music, we were allowed to buy 50/50 and raffle tickets. I won an electrically heated black jacket, it didn't include the charger, but my wife has one and her charger seems to fit it. Win #1.
 My wife won diamond earrings, if you hold them up to the sun just right you can see the diamond in there. Win #2. I didn't win the 50/50 so I didn't get to donate my 50% back to the organization, but we wrote them a car club check for $500. Win #3
 An older lady saw me and said "hello handsome man", she obviously has poor vision.

The big game hunter walked in the bar and bragged to everyone about his hunting skills. The man was undoubtedly a good shot and no one could dispute that. But then he said that they could blindfold him and he would recognize any animal's skin from its feel, and if he could locate the bullet hole he would even tell them what calibre the bullet was that killed the animal. The hunter said that he was willing to prove it if they would put up the drinks, and so the bet was on. They blindfolded him carefully and took him to his first animal skin. After feeling it for a few moments, he announced "Bear." Then he felt the bullet hole and declared, "Shot with a .308 rifle." He was right.

They brought him another skin, one that someone had in their car trunk. He took a bit longer this time and then said, "Elk, Shot with a 7mm Mag rifle. He was right again.

Through the night, he proved his skills again and again, every time against a round of drinks. Finally he staggered home, drunk out of his mind,and went to sleep. The next morning he got up and saw in the mirror that he had one hell of a shiner. He said to his wife, "I know I was drunk last night, but not drunk enough to get in a fight and not remember it. Where did I get this black eye?"

His wife angrily replied, "I gave it to you. You got into bed and put your hand down my panties. Then you fiddled around a bit and loudly announced, "Skunk, killed with an axe."
