A whooping delayed is a whooping denied, I always say….

My brother in law just traded a window sill style air conditioner for a pickup truck. Its a good truck, its just older and was built in the era when gasoline was cheaper.

I’d say the kid — actually the parent — got the better end of the deal, if the car runs ….. Course I wouldn’t let the kid know, I’d just confiscate the vehicle on “Account” and go buy a new camera.
Granted, if the memory card on said camera contains as-yet-to-be-dwonloaded pix of a more “personal” nature, all of the above would of course be null and void, and I would therefore be supporting Mike’s whoopin’ idea — to find out who the kid traded with and where they live….

I have 3 crappy digital cameras and 2 old 35 mm cameras. I also have a drawer full of old cell phones…maybe I can combine them all and get a fairly decent used Beemer…..

Hell, Ber, with that kind of tradebait, you should be able to get a nice Rolls.

You must mean a Rolls-Canardly. Rolls down one hill, canardly make it up the other.
