SanJuanWorm Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 When Cardboard Men Come In Handy Lynn's car gets a flat on the deerfoot one day. Lynn eases it over onto the shoulder of the road, carefully steps out of the car and opens the trunk. She takes out two cardboard men, unfolds them and stands them at the rear of the vehicle facing oncoming traffic. The lifelike cardboard men are in trench coats exposing their nude bodies and private parts to approaching drivers. Not surprisingly, the traffic becomes snarled and backed up. It isn't very long before a CPS police car arrives. The officer, clearly enraged, approaches Lynn's car yelling, 'What's going on here?' 'My car broke down, officer' says the Lynn calmly 'Well, what the hell are these obscene cardboard pictures doing here by the road?' he asks. 'Helllooooooo!!!!' says Lynn. 'Those are my emergency flashers!' Quote

LynnF Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 I'm sure somewhere deep down in the bowels of David's imagination, this somehow must have something to do with his trouser trout and my comments therein a few days ago. However, 'twas a funny little anectdote that brought about a chuckle from Mr. Freeman wherein he told me that the "helloooooo" part sounded exactly like me and how he said he never really looked that good in cardboard anyways. Oh..and by the way LS - I don't think those cardboard guys will work for you unless you lighten your hair. Significantly Quote

reevesr1 Posted June 18, 2008 Posted June 18, 2008 Not sure if this was Lynn, but...... Last year I replaced all the windows in my house with that expensive double-pane energy efficient kind, and today, I got a call from the contractor who installed them. He was complaining that the work had been completed a whole year ago and I still hadn't paid for them. Hellloooo ... just because I'm blonde doesn't mean that I am automatically stupid. So, I told him just what his fast talking sales guy had told me last year, that in ONE YEAR these windows would pay for themselves! Helllooooo? It's been a year! I told him. There was only silence at the other end of the line, so I finally just hung up. He never called back. Guess I won that stupid argument. I bet he felt like an idiot. Quote
EdB Posted June 18, 2008 Posted June 18, 2008 Should I state the obvious? Nice Rick...that was awsome and T, traffic is allready at a stand still on Deerfoot most days so we probably wouldn't move for days if you stand out there flashing or should i say with your blinkers on. Quote
