Man, I'll take your Urban Slang dictionary and raise it by one Redneck Pictorial bedtime story. Diversity rulz!

And it's funny as Hell.

Absolute, for-real laugh out loud!

Now THAT'S a proper businessman.

I'd buy one of his homes...If he'd let me.

OK, one of the best commercials I've seen in some time. "A bouncer hit me in the face five times with a crescent wrench. My wife's ex-boyfriend broke my jaw. So if you don't buy a trailer from me, it ain't goin' to hurt my feelings."

Nothing.But.NET.

Reminds me of old Loren Baxter of the Higgins Lake Boat Yard. When told he was the biggest S.O.B. at Higgins Lake Baxter replied that was not true - he was the biggest S.O.B. at Higgins Lake and Houghton Lake.

Baxter was right about that.*

*No, I am not kidding.

Story time. Sorry.

My mom's family had been vacationing in the Higgins lake area for years; my mom's brother had a bar and restaurant in the area for years; my dad (obviously) had been vacationing there for years. They all had been there for about thirty-forty years before this story takes place - and the story took place about 1981.

Dad went to the Boat Yard to get a part for the boat. After that he was talking to Baxter - just shooting the breeze - when a man came up with his twelve year old son. The man wanted to buy a Sunfish sailboat.

Now, a normal businessman would have said to my dad, 'Hey Fred; I got to take care of this customer'.

Not Baxter.

He said, 'What the $%^&$ do you want? I'm busy here.' (Dad's thoughts - and his comments when telling the story - were 'You sold me a $5 part, and now you are going to drive away a customer that wants to buy an $800+ sailboat, and the life jackets, and everything else?)

But that was Baxter the Bastard (not my doing - he earned that title before I was born).

And Mrs. Baxter was the nicest person to deal with - go figure that one.

People - you really cannot figure them - they do not fall into neat rational boxes, do they?

Them's the guys whose ancestors put the fear of G-d in the Union army.

He doesn't seem to be hiding anything about his product. He is putting Americans to work. I would wager that his prices are fair. I could see worse options for someone trying to get started. I hope he is doing a good business selling to the greedy souls who tried to make a killing in the recent real estate debacle and lost their shirts while destroying our economy. I doubt if Fannie and Freddie are bailing very many of his customers out.
