:: The American Dream

What is it exactly?

Wife, kids, house with the white picket fence?

For some its easier to experience than most. Some are born with a silver spoon, ten of us are lucky enough to have NOT used the numbers from LOST and woke up with 34 million dollars waiting for them. For most of us, we have to work for it, HARD.

Take Terry for instance. While on our way across this great nation of ours, I found Terry. He's the hardest working man in America. He works SO hard that one state cannot contain him. In Nevada, just past Reno, he runs "Terry's Rent-a-Toilet" a fine establishment with a very worthy cause... Fulfilling our nature's call when we need it most... after a case of Pabst's and watching "Grave Digger" mash up a few cars. A quick laugh and Terry was quickly forgotten. That is until he resurfaced in Wyoming as "Terry's Towing". Again serving the public, man this Terry is helpful and gets around. Just a coincidence I said and had another quick laugh. That is until we stopped in Nebraska for lunch... and was served lunch by... you guessed it, Terry. How does he do it? He so helpful and has a hold on at least two of man's daily needs, Food and the Call of Nature. He's got to be rollin' in bank.

Here's to you Terry the toilet man, Terry the tow truck operator, Terry the food server... The Hardest Working Man in America, you are definitely deserving of the American Dream.

Whose to say Terry is a guy?

Mr. T said...

True enough.. just seemed to be Guy-type work.

You cannot be faulted for that. My wife won't use an outhouse much less install, clean and remove them.

Scott, I agree with your wife, but I have been known to do a bit of "guy stuff" from time to time. Heck, I have my own hammer. Who am I kidding? LOL

Mr T - Just dropping by to say hi. I sure miss having around all the time, and absence makes the heart grow fonder. Know what I mean? I hope the new job is treating you well, and that the move was worth it. Post about how you are settling in when you get the chance.
