Gallows......Shows everyone what big pimp'n grass cutting is all about. Sends over the bow shot about upcoming truck buy. Cerebral in the art of "happy" infused tater engineering
I'm glad to have the tractor. Pricey bugger though. I could pick up a crew cab 4x4 XLT F150 for about the same money.

I am a smoker. I get mean when I attempt to quit. I’ll try again when I leave the oils industry. I don’t ash out the windows because that leaves burn marks on the window seal and the smoke smell can easily be neutralized now with a few good products on the market. Funny story, I lit up a smoke on the test drive when I was buying the truck. The salesman wasn’t impressed. I told him that I wanted even more of a discount since it was smoked in. 😂 Don’t worry guys, price was worked out ahead of time and I didn’t light the smoke until I knew I was buying it.

I always installed window visors so I could crack a window when driving with the AC on. I had two friends in high school die by carbon monoxide poisoning while sleeping in their car at the fair. Since then, I always have a window slightly cracked. Also, when it’s as hot as Matt’s U-cake shipments, I can leave the windows cracked while parked. It helps vent the heat and I won’t have the rare window blow out that I’ve heard about but have never seen. 🤷‍♂️

Back when I used to fight, I was a smoker. My promoter buddy would call and offer a fight.

Pro: Got a fight for ya

Me: Cool. What weight and how many rounds?

Pro: 170lbs, 3x 5min

Me: Can intake smoke breaks between rounds?

Pro: No

Me: Ok. If I don’t finish it in the first round, I’m tapping out so I can go for a smoke

Pro: You’re a douche

Me: Agreed.

My lease runs out July 15. I was told I could extend it for two months and after that I up the creek without a truck.

It should be here within 2 months. If not, you can just take the tractor into town. 😂

^This is for real. Crazy. I've never been fighter boxer dude but I smoked. Marlboro Reds. Loved them. Say out to supper, couldn't wait till finished so mid way step outside for a drag.

Now Arby's has this Jamocha shake. I could kill a half pack with one of those things. Dang tasty!!!!

And of course drinking shine, smoke like crazy

Now I dip, Stokers, Skoal, Kayak if I'm running short
