My type of guy.. when Ma died and left her shredded wheat box of a mobile home for me to dispose of, I gutted it and paid a FL ‘redneck businessman’ to tote it off to a wreck-yard and get rid of it so to leave an open space where a newer model could be moved in. He kept my check and the title and claimed it as his own and failed to compute my temper in the disagreement that followed. The neighbors still tell tales of his problems with this gigantic pile of manure that FOREVER needed ‘fixing’ during its lifetime, and evidently, still does.
