If it weren't for the following story I probably wouldn't even post the fact that we had a fire last week that completely destroyed my home and yes all of my four wheelers. But there is a funny side to everything and this being no exception I thought I'd share it with my friends here on the forum
I find refuge in humor and I wasn't disappointed this time. Thursday morning I got up early and went to the anti-house to sift through the ashes. The first thing I wanted to look for was the keys to my camper.(figured I might need them) I didn't find any keys but the hutch where I kept them was still there, some of it. I pulled one of the drawers out and found something I didn't expect. Years ago maybe in the late 50's early sixties my grandparents were given a gag gift which was later given to me. It's a small box which reads "In case of Emergeny...."
What is in the box is a crochet thing thats made to fit a mans genitalia. I hadn't seen this thing in probably 9 years since we bought this house. I looked at it and thought to myself "Emergency..hmmm" I opened it up and there this thing was not even wet. I took it out of the box, holding it my hand as I looked around me at the total devastation that was once my beutiful home. I looked up at the sky(standing in the dining room I might add) and said "God is this all I get? The clothes on my back and my ball warmer?" I started to laugh and thought "Your doing this to me on purpose aren't you".
Well anyway as it turns out there was a lot more important things saved than that but if I had it to do all over I would have droped my pants right were I stood and put the damn thing on!

 

Sorry to hear about your fire and the loss of most of your possesions. It's always nice to hear when someone "chooses" to keep up a good attitude.

As Charles Swindoll once said "I am convinced that life is ten percent what happens to me and ninety percent how I react to it. And so it is with you.... We are in charge of attitudes."

If you need a wheeler to ride you can ride mine.


Wheelers in the shed,drinks are in the fridg and the key is over the door.

Long live the red dot!

 

Tom,
Mark is in San Fransico, and won't get back till late friday night. I can not find his home number and we have a change in plans. I need him to meet us somewhere else to ride Saturday morning. If you have his Home # e-mail me so I can call Elise tomorrow night and let her know the new plans. Sorry you can't make it this week end. Maybe when you things straightened out, you will ride again.

Thanks,

Greg

 

Thanks man! I would take up up on that but I'm picking up my Rancher ES 4x4 today at lunch. My priorities may be skewed but I have lots of time and I want to ride!
Thanks again.

 

You have a tremendous attitude. I hope you can pass it along to your family. The fire is terrible and I wish it hadn't happened.

This, too, shall pass.

 

Thanks Trap, I've NOT been to a funeral this week. Thats all I know.

 

Sorry to hear of your loss. I am, however, hoping that you had sufficient insurance?

Anyway, remember, it is what happens in you, not to you; and it's all just stuff, thank the Lord nobody was injured and all you have to replace is things, and not people.

 

The main thing is you & your family wasn't hurt. Your possesions & toys can be replaced.

Good luck settling with your insurance company!

 

ya might be sceerd, but at least your ***** are warm!
