Nice post. Those cows look like punk rockers to me.

Your canoe reminded me of an aluminum siding salesman who called and wanted to wrap the house in white lap-siding. The siding company would call every week so I finally said come on over and the guy came to our house and walked around for a while and then came up with some ridiculous price that was four or five times the actual cost to do the job.

I told him he should really put new siding on his house and he replied, “I can’t afford that!”

“I can’t afford it either, thanks for coming.”

No more phone calls.
