This gentleman decided to teach the 'batter' a lesson in physics. He purchased two mailboxes, one slightly smaller than the other so that it could not be seen when placed next to the larger one. The larger one he filled with cement. He then attached them to his mailbox post and waited. Sure enough that evening he heard the distinct roar of an un-muffled engine on an old truck and to his delight he also heard the sound of a cracking wooden bat. As the truck sped off the gentleman walked to the end of his driveway to find the broken bat lying in the road. He never had trouble with a smashed mailbox again.Suziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00985632767344027013noreply@blogger.com
