Something about that phrase tickled my funny bone, Lou.

 

Can we count on some new cow dismemberments this year?

 

 

Chuck, ya gotta live a little bit. Money isn't everything. I had a business partner that died and I don't mind tellin' ya at the funeral I through a check in the casket for the full amount to buy his interest.

 

Have I ever related to you the tale of my friend Brad Heinz? You know if you don't disembowel chickens in fairly short order it taints the meat, right. Well, my old bud Brad invented a machine that had an arm that kind of resembled a keyhole saw on the end of a rod. Went in the chicken carcass and drug out all the guts in one fell swoop....a chicken ******* plucker as it were. Sold the idea to some processing company, retired to Hawaii in his late 20's and built a mansion in the hills.

 

 

Evening Chuck. Mick that story has me puckering up a bit.....

 

Amazing how some of the simplest ideas make ya rich beyond your dreams. I went to school with kids whose father invented that little plastic tab thingy on loaves of bread. Owned a company called Paxton Products. Up to that point his Dad did custom plastics manufacturing....then they moved to the BIG house.

Edit: Curiosity got the best of me and I googled. Apparently my friend had the basics right but grandpa was the inventor...
