    Every time I read a post of yours I get hungry!! I think I will see if I can get "The Poverty Flats Variety Show" on the food network.

    The Hearse from Natoma is freaky!

    No, I think me, you and GL should do a reality show featuring anvil shooting throughout the USA. Kind of a daredevil show. We can let GL light the fuse. Nothing could kill him....:D

    Can we eat while he is working? Kinda like the Mutual of Omaha were the dude would wrestle the crocks while the other would go back to camp and cook.

    Well, he is from Lincoln and that is kinda close to Omaha so that should work perfectly ! I love a good plan.

    We could just drive around the country in a Gasser 55, pick up some girl, race some guy in a GTO. Its just an idea I have rolling around in my head for a movie.

    I think I'll have to move to your neighborhood for a good parade!:D

    one of the best parades I have been to was Cedarburg, WI at July 4th which is where YOU live. All you need is a clown driving a car....wait a minute....that could be YOU.
     
  16. Hahaha... but I want to shoot anvils... hell I get in trouble lighting firecrackers!

    I love this shit... but something tells me that a steel pot won't help if an anvil hits your melon!

    I spoke with PF shortly after he and Dick left Russell. I really enjoyed hearing the excitement in Paul's voice as he told me about his experience. If you don't know, he is quite the HAM and loves the attention. It sounds like it was the perfect event for PF and Dick in the PF LIMO

    Poverty, you know how to have a good time! Make your own fun, as you said. As a fellow Kansas resident, I know just what you mean. Life is good here!
