    Just a funny story…

    My dad has heated with firewood for nearly 50 years. One day he stopped for gas with the bed of his truck loaded. An attractive woman was filling her Mercedes too and asked him - "Would you be interested in trading a wild night together for some firewood?" After a brief pause, he replied "How much firewood are you offering?"
