SUCKA'!
« on: January 02, 2012, 04:04:18 pm »
Can you believe this? Kids nowadays! I told him I would pay him $5 CASH for each log he split into as many staves as they offered. I told him that whole pile pays $30...................he agreed and got started. Should I feel bad taking advantage of my own? I dont... :P
