My jerkface kids!
 

I hope you enjoy this, I didn't :!:

We went to Lake Lure in NC for a bit of r&r this past summer. On the way up there from Landis, the discussion turned to our lifejackets. Luke and Wes were blown away at the cost of these jackets, especially when they found out my Mustang Automatic Inflatable costs about $150 new. I assured them it was no big deal, the replacement cylinders are dirt cheap, so buying a whole new vest wasn't necessary if it went off. That was my first mistake!

My second mistake was to actually get in the canoe with these two clowns.

Early a.m. next day, Dad, come on man, lets go out in the canoe, they are begging me to take them out. Man, they want to do something with the old man, that is great. Here we go, I get this bad feeling when Luke asked me if I thought the water was to cold to go in, I answered, no not at all. That was my 3rd and final mistake. With some seriously wicked grins, they slowly started rocking the canoe, telling me they are gonna turn it over. Sure enough, the last thing my wife said she heard was me screaming like I was having a baby when my big butt fell into the water and that damn vest went off!! I did find out that night though, that neither one of them like Dr.Pepper laced with good ole Texas Pete! I love revenge :!::twisted:

That is the stuff you have the rest of your life to laugh about with them. Great story.

P.S. what is Texas Pete?

Texas Pete is hot sauce, about like Tabasco sauce. It does not go well with Dr.Pepper!

It's no improvement for Jim Beam either. :shock:

Great story... man, that was an open door... of a set of events... in a diabolical plan.

I had trouble with the vest part though.... I heard "Mustang Automatic" "replacement cyclinders" & could not stop thing about hot-rods again.

Damn kids these days lol god I cant wait to have kids if theyre twice as bad as I was im gonna be in trouble lol :wink:

an old saying comes to mind,let us know if its true.
like father like son :lol:

:lol: :lol: :lol:
What torches me about the whole thing was.......I didn't think of it first :!:

Mmmm>>beam and Dew :wink:

Maybe they were just concerned about the safety of your vest and wanted to make sure it worked properly in case you ever needed it for real. :P
