Death of an Ironing Board


We're saying goodbye after almost 20 years to our old ironing board. Someone, and I'm not saying who, broke it when they were trying to fold it up. This is what I drove up to today when I came home. Is it just me, or does it look like a dead cockroach, flipped over on it's back? Practically in the middle of the street. Seems like a sad way to go...Joey said he wanted to open it up and stand it up in the street, lol. 
I find entertainment in the strangest places.
Take, for instance, the "free" section of Craigslist. Absolutely hilarious. You should check it out. I especially like the camper they were giving away...the one with no motor, no wheels and YOU have to pay the electric company to turn the power lines off so YOU can pay to haul it off. The owner said they were
"tired of looking at it." What a DEAL!
The other great one was the "free" red recliner they were giving away. The owner said it works great, in good condition...and then when you cock your head to the side to look at the image of the chair they posted sideways, and squint your eyes to try to see the dark image...you'll notice a there's a big diarrhea stain on the cushion. I'LL TAKE IT!
Oh, I can't NOT tell you about the barrel of used oil that someone might want for free. Apparently, no one did because a few days later he posted again but this time it was just listed as an empty, used barrel. 
Go GREEN, people!
