How do city people live like that?

One of the neighbors used to say, "that guy over there, he likes to buy old crates and fix them up". This would come from someone born in 1900, who witnessed true old crates like broken down buggies, then not much better model T's, then "old flibbers with fins". Any car eventually became just another old crate.

"a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush"

This is one of my life motto's. I can't even think of how many times I've said it to myself, or to others. I just know when I use it when making a decision, I'm always happy with the results!!!!
