    You may be right, then again Crash I may just see if you think we need to auction it off for the DOC !!!

    That'll work too.

    For the record - DOC is plumb full of rubber bands, left over screws, half used BIC lighter, assorted K-cups, SAK toothpicks, gum, candy, reading glasses, pencils with unused erasers, loose change from cup holders, a coffee can full of assorted nails, a box full of wire coat hangers that were only used once, some Styrofoam coolers from Omaha Beef orders, 7 doubles from beer can collections, a framed sheet of $3.00 Confederate Bonds payable at 6%, a scrabble player's dictionary, a camping spatula, 6 fishing weights, a "Nixon/Agnew" button, 51 playing cards, a can full of rusty razor blades, a "Nick Gravenites" LP, a can of Break Free with a few squirts left, a package of rubber night crawlers, 2 oak duplex wall plates, some Cross mechanical pencil refills, a 42 cent postage stamp, and a jar of Newman's Own Vodka Sauce, thumb tacks and baby aspirin.

    We could however use some chocolate covered Entemann's donuts.

    Great day in the morning. Well, good luck with that one. Seems someone we know ate them. Yeah, ate them. All of them. I couldn't believe it either. I'm thinking, "Hey, this guy is a buddy. He'll invite me..I mean us...for some doughnuts. But did he? Nooooooooooo. Did he offer even one stale one? Heck no. I'll bet he even licked the icing out of the box. That ain't no buddy if you ask me.

    By the way, I saw a K-cup but I didn't see a protective cup on the list. Do you need an old one of those? Makes a right dandy face mask in cold weather.

    When I typed K cup earlier I was going to add - I'm more of a B or C cup man, but then thought better of it. Sure glad I didn't embarrass myself by resorting to juvenile humor.

    Personally, I think you should let me negotiate the trade for you. I'll see to you get everything you deserve..for a small nominal fee that we can talk about later. I'll set up a barter agreement just to make certain you receive EVERYTHING that has been offered including the doughnuts. So Ken, you should feel free to negotiate with me as Welderguy's agent.
