“Yesterday, I had a flat tire on 80 east. So I eased my horse trailer over to the shoulder of the road, carefully got out and reached in the side compartment I took out two cardboard men, unfolded them and stood them at the rear of my trailer facing on-coming traffic. They looked so life like you wouldn't believe it! They're dressed in open trench coats that exposed their nudity to the approaching drivers.
But to my surprise, cars started slowing down to look at my lifelike men. And, of course, traffic began backing up. Everybody beeped their horns and waved like crazy. It wasn't long before a Highway Patrol pulled up behind me.
He got out of his car and walked towards me. I could tell he was not a happy camper!
"What's going on here?"
"My horse trailer has a flat tire," I said calmly.
"Well, what the heck are those obscene cardboard men doing here by the road?"
I couldn't believe that he didn't know. So I told him......
"Helloooooo, those are my emergency flashers!"
Always be prepared and safety first out there……seriously be careful. .

I made cranberry&white chocolate biscotti. Now I’m used up. Still have 6 rabbits to grind for the dogs…I think he’s gonna have to do it for me. The rabbits are supposed to move to Calif. If they don’t come get them soon I will need to find a way to send them down with just the triple stacks and maybe I can leave a b-i-l there too.

You may have to put the b-i-l in a cage and wire it shut. ;) :duc
OH WAIT -- your winters are around the corner -- probably not something that is appealing for b-i-l.
