WD-40 or Fight

Oh, the claims that are made at those coffee groups. I can hardly wait because I know I may learn the secret of the universe the next time I attend.



 

 
He shared some good news with the guys.
To most of them it was a surprise.
Their coffee group looked for the latest
and felt that made them the greatest.
 
At their age aches and pains are not new
and they always welcome a new view.
He said, “I’ve found some good new, guys,
I promise it’s not a bunch of lies.”
 
They always proclaimed it is true
‘cause so many tried to fool you.
They looked around and then they winked.
Other than that nobody blinked.
 
“Have you tried WD-40?” he inquired.
He knew they would all be very inspired.
“My arthritis has quit hurting me,
and no other reason that could be.”
 
Because they respected this good friend
they tried very hard to comprehend.
And each rushed out to a hardware store
and bought a can to spray on their sore.
 
Now they gather for coffee each day
and pass around a can and spray.
It costs them quite a bit of money
And really makes the coffee taste funny.

I'm telling you larry, I am with Ed on this as I have been told this about the WD-40 too sometime ago by someone that it really works on aches and pains. I figure if they would drill a few holes in my hips, I'd be willing to try it too. lol. Thank you larry.

Newfie hugs, Rose

My Dad once drank bacon grease that my sister was saving in a mug on the stove. (he never noticed till she took it away from him) That probably helped his joints from the inside out. Tell your coffee friends to try it--they'll love you for it.
Cute story, Larry.

An hilarious one from a supposedly very serious preacher, now I would have believe it if it was a WD-10-40, I don't know if that taste better but a guy my age did 100 yards in 7 seconds (just once, he kicked the bucket after crossing the finish line!)
