I never baled hay for Del. I neve...What a hoot... <br /><br />I never baled hay for Del. I never saw or met the man but attended OCS with his sons.... however, I did hear one interesting yarn about the guy that I would like to pass-on that gives one a true impression of his affinity for the almighty dollar. [You know, the root of all evil.]<br /><br />I heard that he and one of his sons invented copper wire. One of the two guys dropped a penny and both happened to pick it up at the same time. Neither would let go... a long string of copper wire followed the prolonged tug of war...<br /><br />I also heard that if you wanted to find Del in town all you had to do was roll a nickel down main street.<br /><br />So, he paid you 65 cents an hour... I am glad you learned self discipline and character from the experience. Good thing that was free.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
