A spider crawled out of the coal pile, and surveyed the inside of the engine.
The fireman spat on his hands, took a shovel, swung and smashed the spider as though he were Babe Ruth knocking one out of the park.
TVCTPMO launched a sneak attack on me. My starter died in the lot in Kroger. I got a lifetime warrenty, if I can find the papaerwork ,but I’m still out $70 for the tow.:mad:
I used to do egg puns, but I got ova it.

Did the four miles come off the PA side or the IN side? If it’s the Indiana side, I may have some Xmas cards to address differently this year. 
Sorry abou your starter, doggio. May the car gods be kinder to you this week.
Good title!
“That’s over kill” I said.
The fireman turned towards me. “I don’t like spiders.”
“Some people don’t like firemen.”
I ducked under his swing, and kneed him in the groin as hard as I could. Clutching his privates, he staggered back towards the opening that served as a door. I grabbed his shirt, but his shoe caught in the drive wheel and he was pulled away from me like a nanny would take candy away from a baby. He screamed as he fell.
“I hope you can shovel coal better than you can keep guys falling out of a door.” the engineer grumbled.
“Sure”, I said, “as long as there are no spiders hiding in there.”
It’s been a hell of a 4 days. But I just had a Blonde Moment.
I like a Bare Ass Blonde myself.
Neither. It keeps swelling from the center out! :smack:
True story – when my BIL died we had to have the body flown back from Harrisburg. When the bill came we were all shocked at the fare and my MIL commented that we should have just propped him a seat and paid for him as “carry on”. Me being me I had to point out that technically he would have been “carrion”. It may have been a result of all the pent up emotions but everyone got a good laugh out of it.
