LOL!!!

Good thing you and your wife have a great sense of humor!


What kind of bait were you using? Power bait perhaps!

Mine are permanently attached, thank-you very much! (Oh, are we still talking about trucks?)
It looks like you're fishing for something, w/ a bumper for bait. Maybe we should have a 'caption contest' w/ this one.

Anyone ever jacked with somebody before by tieing their ball to something solid and immovable?

Oh yeah...I spent a good 10 minutes trying to figure out why the heck my truck wouldn't go one morning. Dad had decided to be funny and strap it to the GMC.

I never thought the obvious...of course...
