OUCH!!!

When you turn down a Primestar 85e because some one said the dish should be taller than it is wide!

But he did tell me about it - and we did manage to get it for him!

Over and almost forgotten. It was a knock off SG2100 that I had had to file down the shaft to get the tube on anyway, so it probably would have been too sloppy to be any good. I got a real one and it has worked good, except when it's real cold out.

...when you are hauling a 10 foot BUD on your pickup in one piece and it flies off your truck because you drove too fast and did not bother to tie it down because it was less than a mile from home!

This happened to a friend of mine and he was driving 55 MPH when he had such a short distance to travel!

When you buy the other half a washing machine, and think she'll consider it a gift! -

When you think a real gift would replace the favorite TV shows! -
