I love that the guy has the time and energy to suspend a VW Bug, but can't find the time to fix the roof on his trailer! (see: blue tarp)sonofabeach wrote:I lost too
He also didn't figure that once he lifted the Bug he'd need a ride to the welfare office.

That bug looks like it's in as good a shape as the trailer. I suspect that the last time it moved under its own power was back during Bush 41's first term.SuperTrooper wrote:I love that the guy has the time and energy to suspend a VW Bug, but can't find the time to fix the roof on his trailer!

Confirming or denying an email going around..
I tried cutting and pasting the article, but it seems to be a pdf kind of thing and cant copy it.

Went to rich_big's original post and hit "quote"; then copied the URL that showed up and got this:

Happy to be of service.
Now, as to what urban legend this is in support or rebuttal of, I'll leave that up to you.

Re: Why I lost the Christmas Decoration Contest yet again.......
Now I just came back to this thread, and when I first looked at my post it was displaying the big green "Mr. Yuck" symbol, or whatever the heck it is.
OK, I click on "edit" and do a cut-and-paste of the image URL from my post into a second browser tab, and it shows the guy hanging onto the eaves trough for dear life. So I return to the thread and there's the guy hanging oning onto the roof *IN PLACE OF MR. YUCK* — but I hadn't changed a dambed thing!!!
In the words of Elmer Fudd, "Theah's something scwewy going on awound heah", although it seems that the problem is at the snopes.com end.
