The good, the bad and the ugly

Well, we had our garage sale for Second Chances All Animal Rescue today as I mentioned in an earlier thread: http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthre...threadid=80804

THE GOOD: We raised $507.83 for the rescue !

THE BAD: Some poor excuse for a human being stole one of the tools out of a Sears Craftsman set that our neighbors donated. This set of thingy-majiggies (obviously, I know nothing about tools) costs $60 at Sears. It was brand new, never been used. Someone stole just one of the tools, so we have to mark it down significantly.

THE UGLY: A man with a very full, bushy beard dropped by and got into a conversation with my husband about cars. Turns out this gentlemen is a mechanic. He was very expressive with his hands and gestured wildly. My husband (being a man, after all)

completely missed the fact that there were 2-inch, cotton candy pink fake nails on these "man hands".

They talked and talked and he gestured and gestured. By this time, I was quite hypnotized by the pink nails and he noticed my facination. At which point, I asked him if working on cars was hard on his manicure.

(My husband FINALLY noticed!) He said no and volunteered that he works as a female impersonator on the weekends (with a full beard?)

I didn't ask any more questions. At this point he left with his purchase. What was his purchase, you ask? Well, he bought 10 pairs on extra large, control top Nordstrom pantyhose.

Soooo, if you're ever in a drag bar in Anchorage, Alaska and a "woman" with a full beard comes up to you, be kind. "She's" an animal lover.

The good, the bad and the hilarious.

I'll remember that next time I'm in Anchorage.

Worth making a special trip for, I'd say!

Ditto that Lut.

LMAO ... that's priceless.

We have a strange one here, too. His (her?) name is Carmen, and he walks around town pulling a kid's red wagon. Nothing in it, just pulls the wagon around. He always wears nice dresses, heels, panty hose, etc. He also wears a very well-padded bra ... probably a DD!

He also has a lovely full beard. Takes all kinds, I suppose.

lmao.. that's hilarious... though I think I'd run away as soon as I saw the pink nails.

**catnapper** · 06-05-2005, 03:45 PM

LOL... love the nail story!

Grrr.... what moron was that rude and heartless to do that? Grrr

ROFLMAO!!! That's hysterical!

I hope the tool that the guy stole breaks on him!

Jerk!!

**NoahsMommy** · 06-05-2005, 06:16 PM

Good: Yay! That's great news!! I know that'll go to help lots of animals in need. You guys are GREAT!!

((hugs))

Bad: That is horrid!

What goes around comes around, I think even harsher when this stuff happens to people that are trying to help. What a JERK!!

"Ugly": Well....my mom would say, "That's why they make different flavors of jell-o".

Sounds like a nice person.

**momcat** · 06-06-2005, 02:26 PM

Unreal!!!! Sounds like you had quite a day. As for the swiped tool, may it break on that $#@**! and completely ruin whatever it is he's trying to do! As for bushy beard pink nails, what's there to say.....
