Or as we like to say, borrowing S.E. Rykoff's motto, "Enjoy life. Eat out more often." No really, that was on the side of their building in San Francisco and on all of their trucks and trailers. Those poor truck drivers - invariably there would be cars that would pull up to them and give them a few beep beeps and passengers (and drivers) giving them a "thumbs up".
Wise words to live by in our book.

Hmm, adds a new meaning to, "They will get my GUN when they pry it from my cold dead fingers."..
That would be taking self-abuse to the extreme !

Dang you folks are good! I'm enjoying the heck out of this. Almost as fun as sliding the stinger into the receiver.

Cringing at the thought...
After all, if you pound your ball on the ground, won't it get covered with dirt?

Depends what the hat's hung on...
And maybe some folks just want to have a simple Argosy without having to replace the floor...?

Just DO NOT get sand on your shank, and if you do, you had better clean it all off, before you put it in the receiver, or both will get sanded raw.

Three Ain't a Crowd
What about newbies like me who have a heck of a time getting coupled and need a spotter to help guide it in?
Any volunteers????
