O.T. Trailer Trash (humour)

My wife just passed this on to me:

I want to be trailer trash. They did not cause any of the problems that our
country faces today. They did not get mortgages they couldn't afford. They
did not run banks to the ground with greed. They did not use investors for
their personal benefit. They don't even belong to the unions that ask too
much of their companies.

I'm tired of paying mortgage bills,

utility bills, property taxes.

I want to live more simply, pack up

the dog and move into a travel-trailer.

I don't mind being called 'trailer trash',

but I want to get your opinion.

I suggest you ease into that position by going "double wide" first. It
will not be such a shocking change.

I'd happily go and do that. Been a gypsy a large part of my life. The wife
on the other hand, hates the idea. So, unless I want to part company with #5
and start looking for #6, I'd best stay put.
Then theres the road train with two 40' trailers I'd need to haul the
woodworking gear around.
seems I'm beginning to become domesticated after all these years.

Wife sent it as a joke, but I'm tempted to be a bastard and fool her into

It was a play on that ounce of pot that was the remnant of that
quarter pound of pot which was lost from the evidence room after that
2 pound bust the day before where they uncovered 5 pounds.

But 2 pints, brutha'!?

Simple, get a _small_ dog. Then it'll need only two feet, not a full yard.

And, unless, he's an amputee, he's _got_ two feet.

In this same vein:

I was once called in to a hovel in the poorest section of town to =
investigate a death.

Seems one of our local bums died.

What really got my eye was the filth in which he lived.=20

What really made me take notice was the fact that he had $1,000,000 =
hidden in his bed.

One just cannot tell "trailer Trash" by its looks.

Unfortunately, I was not the one who found it.

All I can truthfully say I found, is 2 bottles of beer in a fridge one =
hot summer night.

The cop I was with got a bit irate when I left them in situ.

I love it, an all-American idear.

Some folks I know just packed up their $3-million dollar home (lost it
through stupid triple mortgages and a dozen maxed-out credit cards
worth half a mil), bought a truck with dualies and a 5th wheel, got a
trailer, and are heading out yonder. The man and wife team were
realtors. YeeeHaw!

Close but no see-gar.
