The Top 10 items discovered while cleaning the farm shop on a rainy day:


by Mark Parker

10. Something that is either a biodegradable army helmet or an armadillo that died sometime back.

9. The world’s foremost collection of broken cotter keys.

8. A calendar the welding supply salesman gave you that you didn’t have the nerve to hang up.

7. Enough half-cans of WD-40 to start a distributorship.

6. The grease-stained dress shirt your wife bought you that you were afraid to take into the house.

5. Two short log chains, each with a hook on one end.

4. The 100-ft. extension cord you’ve been complaining about for five years because you thought your neighbor had it borrowed.

3. A five-gallon bucket full of rusty nuts and bolts which you can’t move because the bottom’s rusted out.

2. A half-dozen busted screwdrivers/pry bars/temporary hitch pins.

1. Some ball bearings (whoops, #%*@%!) on the floor.
