The Hitch That Refuses to Leave

The Hitch That Refuses to Leave

My fire truck has a trailer hitch that refuses to leave.

Four grown men have attacked this thing.

Heat.

Hammers.

Language that would make sailors apologize.

Nothing.

The guy I bought the truck from said, “Oh yeah, that’ll come right off.”

Sir…

Were you talking about this truck…

…or the next owner’s problem?

Now I need a different size ball for the horse trailer.

Again with the fractions.

Nothing on a farm is ever just…

“Buy the thing.”

It’s an Olympic event with rust.


That was the free stuff. The premium nonsense comes as a signed book ($40, half is hay) or weekly letters from the farm. Choose your fighter, feed a goat either way.


Fall further down the hole

Six buckets of regret. Pick your poison.
