Years ago, an older couple passed away and the kids came in to clean. The old folks had newspapers stacked in basement floor to ceiling in neat stacks. All the way back before Eisenhower was president. Anyway, they decided to start using a moving dolly to move them out to the trash. They did this for trash day for a couple of weeks. Then as they were putting out another stack for the third week, it fell over, and some cash came out of the papers. They quickly realized what mom and dad had done, hiding money in the papers. They ended up going thru all the remaining stacks one paper at a time and pulled more than 20 thousand out. They wondered how much they threw away in the stacks they put out for trash.

Think you sir for your video on rebuilding the tuff torque. Automatic the washer thickness part was crucial for me because they look so similar with out that info I might have made the mistake of placing them back in the wrong position but ever thing else went smoothly I live in Tennessee not to far from tuff torque so I went to the warehouse and picked up my rebuild kit I don't know if you have ever heard of this but I had a long time john deere macanic give me some advice run 15-40 big truck oil in the transmission instead and it will last a lot longer I have been running it for a year with no problem and the oil still looks brand new and it also pulls a lot stronger I do let in warm up before using it because of the thicker oil but it is so much smoother and take off is a lot better thank again 👍🏻

Down in Sebring Florida, a bag lady's house caught fire. This woman would go around town with a shopping cart loaded with clothes. The firemen had a hard time extinguishing the fire because the piles of clothes in the house kept smoldering. So, they threw the clothes outside in huge piles. One of the firemen noticed some of the clothing had money in them. After extinguishing the fire they counted up $40,000 stashed in the clothing. This was 1991 and no one could figure where all that money came from!

A stash of mad money, all in n a days work. Always check the backs of old family pictures and books before you huckem. My buddy and I were going through his dad’s hvac business surplus parts before they sold the place, he wasn’t much of a hoarder like me so I took two trailer loads of stuff and he took some tools and small things. I cluttered my shop with the stuff I grabbed and it sat for about a year then one day I was sorting through it and found little over three thousand dollars worth of old silver quarters and dimes that were rolled and in a cardboard box, that I thought was bolts because it was heavy. The collector value was probably more. Made his day when I told him to come over that I had a surprise for him , he said he knew his dad had saved up these coins when he and his sister were little but didn’t know what he had done with them. We had planned on going back to look for the other coins but his sister sold the place before we could go back.
