I just had a buddy get a ticket for 'rolling' through a stop sign in a lane in a parking lot of a city owned PARK, not even a real street.

He's taking a pay cut, his second job went away. And now he has to get his car out of hoc again, but I'm not loaning him any more money. At least he's honest about his debts. So he said I owned the contents of a locked box and this was inside. I also picked up some more pieces from him, things I don't really need but they were a good bargain (C&R long guns mostly) so that he could raise enough cash to get out of the most recent mess. More than I can say about a lot of of folks. I'm sure more than a few of you have loaned people money who don't pay it back.

I loaned another friend a pretty large sum for his start up business, but this was before I realized he was a MORON when it came to money. This guy could fuck up any business venture, sure he could talk a good game, but he did the most idiotic things which would always ruin the venture.

Again, I think only the older IMFDB members would have 'war stories' like this to tell. You younger guys, beware!

You happy now? Bet that wasn't as good as you hoped.
