That's my story.

Imagine your surprise finding those in your pockets when you were getting ready to do a load of laundry.

So yea, I caved and put a parking sticker on the twin in the very lower left corner of the window. I hate stickers, but I can live with it for a while. Better than driving just the truck.

Nope. Normal is no stickers, plain license plate frame. I like not being linked to any political party, group, club, whatever, or letting people know if I've been somewhere, if I like dogs, or how many people are in my family, etc..

That's my duck hunting rig.

[bcj]

Pulled up behind a Tesla P00D' (or something like that) at a stoplight yesterday.

Had a trailer hitch on the back. Not just regular 1 3/4 or 2 inch ball hitch.
It had a ginormous 2 1/2 inch ball you'd expect to see on a lifted bro-dozer.

I guess they've got plenty of torque, but not enough to pull a load like that more than a mile or two.

That brings to mind a duck hunting story. Back in California, I had a friend that I worked with and he had a part ownership in a duck hunting club near Los Banos.

One day, on our way back from the valley, we were going to pass near his duck club so he wanted to check something. He opened up a chest freezer and there were a few dozen shot up ducks in plastic bags not dressed out.

I ask him what was up with that? He replied that he had some friends that would like to spend the night "away from home" so, they told their wife that they were going to the duck club to spend the night. The next morning, after they took their lady friend home from the local motel, they would stop by the duck club to pick up a few shot up ducks, that they would take home. Get the drift?

Leaving under sink doors open also helps.

Did and did. Also cranked the heat to 75F while away. Oddly enough the hot water was the one that froze, not the cold which runs parallel to it.

Or the need to advertise for someone.

Yep, the old mpemba effect in play??
