Pallet colony discovered in Washington field

[smstonypoint]

I'm about 100 miles due north. From Winlock that is... the only Winrock I know is in Arkansas and my recon perimeter does not extend that far.

Oops! My apology for the mistake -- I have had rocks and boulders on my mind ever since you proposed your intriguing boulder theory.

Don't be dismissive of Dragoneggs. He's proven himself to be a real Rock-it scientist.

A man who could make so vile a pun would not scruple to pick a pocket.

:laughing: Is it true that that skill is taught in law school?

I can't resist posting this from Boswell "...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'."

Ahh... the credit I seeked and deserved. And I was about to crack a non PC joke about my Chinese friends that pronounce Winlock as Winrock.

I need one of those. Seriously. Does someone make one, or is this a "one more thing I can't have 'cause I don't weld" item?

I was just kidding about not being able to buy one... of course there are commercial made ones for sale. But some of us think in terms, of "what do I have in the scrap pile, that I can make one out of for next to no cost"?. Welding rods and a little electricity are pretty cheap in the big picture.

We don't call it pickpocketing. It's called "hourly billing."

Now that I have answered your question, where shall I send the invoice?

Obama. Send it to Obama

Rats! I should have known not to use an interrogative sentence.

That reminds me of the joke where a person asks an attorney, "can I ask you a couple of questions?" And the attorney replies, "Yes, what's the second question?"

These were in the yard yesterday morning and the hired guy said "they just showed up". Hmmm. And they appear to be wearing some sort of protective covering, very much like the the tin foil hats others here have mentioned they wear .






I'll bet they are still out there.

 

[dragoneggs]

Crap! A couple jumped in the back of my truck!

 

[Wagtail]

sixdogs and dragoneggs (regarding your feral pallets) I believe that this is a sure sign that this (NA) Winter will be another long & harsh one.

Please refer to your copy of either/or the Old Farmers Almanac/Farmers Almanac for clarification.

I've been meaning to ask, are the world's largest eggs in Winlock actually Dragon Eggs? They are not that far from you.

You may be on to something... I cannot confirm or deny.

Now that's intriguing, but wonder about the punch line. I like the one where they mispronounce the word "elections".

 

[Wagtail]

But that's just it, inverted V stacked pallets are an erection.

The question is why and to what purpose.

Further to these conundrums, nothing has appeared or been pursued in the media.

So that's why they multiply so rapidly!

Apparently the government has stopped funding Planned Pallethood.
