After several minutes, the older worker had enough. 'Why don't you put your money where your mouth is,' he said. 'I will bet a week's wages that I can haul something in a wheelbarrow over to that building that you won't be able to wheel back.
'You're on, old man,' the braggart replied. 'Let's see you do it.'
The old man reached out and grabbed the wheelbarrow by the handles. Then, nodding to the young man, he said, 'All right, Dumb Ass, get in.'

edit: Just wanted to add that being with J-Cat for 2 days was a great experience! She has energy, is a great mom, and a terrific person! Thanks, J-Cat, hubby, and Erica. Fun times. Even tho I have laryngitis and can't talk. Still great!
