Bare Man...you got to watch Green Acres tomorrow...it's the episode where Mr. Douglas gives up and sells the farm back to Mr. Haney...he tries to get $9800 - $9820 but will settle for a little less. Well Haney buys it from him cause he figures he can sell it to some other sucker for $10,000 or more real quick. Oliver complains that the tractor has lost power and is about to break down and that there are foul smells from under the house. Haney isn't concerned because he knows the tractor is held together by rubberbands, paperclips and glue....and the smell is probably just a few stink bugs layin eggs in the spring. A short time later he has the farm on the market but is only gettting offers around $9,500-$9,600, but he isn't worried cause he knows soon the offers will be over $10,000. He tries to fix the tractor but it turns out the glue has turned hard as cement and he can't get the old reliable spark plugs to fire or get them out and then he finds out the smell is a convention of rabid skunks....now there are a few offers from those that believe the plugs will magically come back to life (from advice of their tractor analyists) and the skunks are a temporary problem and will go away by summer...but the offers don't make it back up to $9,800 and keep getting smaller and smaller....Haney freaks out and finally sells out around $8,500 to a group of Skoal employees that have formed an investment group called The Dipsters
