Default little story not a tall tail

I wanted to share this story with you all. ( KK please don't be mad for sharing this)

Little Story Not a Tall Tail

My parents live in a small village with about 40 homes around. It is a very old town dating back into the early 1800's maybe earlier. KKfry and I had the opportunity to search my parents back yard. On both sides of my parents House stood churches. We found out my parents house was a parsonage. When we arrived my dad and a few of his friends were in the back yard pitching horse shoes and having a few beers. KK started searching and didn't find too much just a few beeps here and there. When my dad walks up to him and tells him a good place to dig. (my dad loves picking on KK) My dad and his friends follow KK to where my dad told him to dig. KK got a good beep and started to dig. My dad and his buddies are in a circle around KK watching to see what he pulls out. KK reaches in the ground and pulls out a piece of metal and with that metal is attached a collar. KK also pulls out a few bones. My dad and his friends start laughing because they all knew that my dad buried all of his dogs in that spot in the back yard. I am glad I had to use the bathroom while this was going on. LOL

KK is still mad at my dad for that. LOL

There are jokes...and there are jokes...I think I'd be a little upset too! (I'd get over it, though - especially as I became more involved in how I was going to pay back the person!

I agree with EPC Guy. KK one day when the beers are going down real good offer to get him one. Dump the beer and fill it with cold salt water. (plenty salt). Trust me the beer will not taste the same the rest of the day.

Hey kk, take a page from the Star Trek Klingon play book, and I quote,
"Revenge is a dish best served cold". Turn about is fair play. The
gountlet has been thrown down, let the games begin.
