Me and my father where driving around a couple days ago, we came across a caprice classic and and older lincoln Both in great shape. We stopped in to see if they wanted to sell them for extra x mas money. Well this is where it gets good. I went to the door to ask about the cars while my father sit in the truck. I knocked on the door and i heard this old man say come in, so i went in. When i went in it was dark as hell all the lights where off. THen the old man starts yelling help me im dying, help im dying. ( which he wasnt) THen he tells me to turn on the lights im looking all over and fianlly find them i turn them on. TO my surprise here is a old guy that weghit about 250, BUTT NAKED, on the floor. Then he ask if i could help him get on his bed,well im about 180 and he is 250 dead weight not helping me at all i got him on his bed half way. He was leaning over on his bed WITH IS BALLS HANGING OUT THE BACK. Well i told him that my father was in the truck and he could help me get you all the way on your bed. So i went outside tring not to laugh while i told my dad the story. He then went inside and SAW HIS NUTS HANGING. Tring his best not to laugh, my father helped me get him on his bed. And my father ask if he was ok and if anyone was coming to take care of him, he said yes at 3:00 my father looked at his watch it said 2:00 but really 3:00 so he fixed his watch. THen the old man asked what we wanted we told him that we wanted the cars. He said sure but he would have to clean them out. He had a young kid to do it for him. Well we went back today and the cars are still not cleaned out . SO ALL OF THAT AND WE DIDNT EVEN GET THE CARS.

Ya know what really sucks, for me? In my line of work, I actually run into that sort of thing, WAAAYYY TOO OFTEN! lol I go to people's homes to collect blood specimens, for a lab. For some reason, people are a lot less shy around medical personnel. Dammit. lol Amy

man that is one weird story, one time i was crusing the backroads, and i spotted an old newport, and my dad was driving, so i told him let's go over there and check out that car, so he drives all the way up to the people's house, starts blowing the horn, the old man had a bunch of mean a** geese, and they freakin charged us, pecking and honking the whole way, i was outside the truck so i jumped up on the hood, and i found a newspaper or something and i rolled it up, and was swatting at the geese with it, the owner (a crazy old man backwoods hick) seen it, and got a dang shotgun, and was yelling what the hell are u doing on my property? and stop harassing my geese, (i was thinking me harassing them? it's more like the other way around) so then his wife comes out and tells him the geese were attacking me, and the whole time my dad and cousin were in the truck at first they were laughing their as*es off, then they were like oh sh!t when the crazy f**ker come out with the gun, then they were laughing again, "i didn't think it was too funny though" but i still got the car, come to find out my dad knew the old man, so that's one of the reasons why he didn't shoot me also. but man stuff like that sucks

I can't think of anything as bad as that! I do have one, that a friend of mine did. Wasn't really funny at the time , but we had a good laugh later ;D, at how stupid he was. He found a really solid California 1960 Cad. Not the best car, but all he could find. They weren't real good, at welding. But they had a friend, who worked for one of the airlines, as a welder. He could really do great work, with a stick welder . So they had him weld up the whole body. At the time, they could weld bumpers to the body. So the guy just got done welding, the oval part of the rear bumper. A really good strong couple of passes. As he stood up, my friend bent down to look at how well he had done. And he put his left hand, right on that chrome oval . It was so hot, the edge was blue. Needles to say, he took his hand off real quick ! But not before leaving a bit of cooked skin from the heal of his hand . I don't remember where he finished, in the main, but he was one of the last ones running. And he did it, with his hand in a bandage. Steve

Chris, you got me beat - but your story does remind me of a time a friend of mine and I were at a junk yard. this junk yard was on an indian reservation, and the place is a call before you come kind of place. my friend's cousin was getting some parts for a wrecked car that we were picking up........... Anyway, while *cousin* was in paying for the car hood or whatever, I saw a couple Aspen station wagons, so my friend and I went over to check them out (I would have gladly paid what the guy wanted for them, cuz I REALLY dig aspen wagons). Anyway, this SOB starts yelling at me, and sicks his F#c&!ng dogs on us, so we have to huff it over to the truck and sit there til my buddy's cousin comes back and we drove off. Crazy SOB could have sold a couple cars. That was a couple years ago, and the two wagons are still there.
