This is a one of a kind group of 6 double cemetery plots. Located at the
Oakwood Cemetery Annex in Montgomery Al. These six sites are in the same
rows and just a few graves over from Hank and Audrey Williams. Mr. William's
Mother and Sister and Niece are immediately left of this site and between
this site and Hank and Audrey. These 6 lots start to the right of the
Niece(Charlotte Ruth Smith), and are in two rows, with the bottom row
bordering the road. They are 4ft by 8ft each. A total of a 12ft by 16ft
square. To the right are three more relatives buried with space for one
more, and then the road curves and cuts off the row. There will be no more
space created here. There is one vault included and space for 12 in the 6
lots. The legal description of this property is: Oakwood Cemetery Annex,
Section L, Lot 5, Space's 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6. Depending on who's statistics
you use, this group of graves(ok, Hank) gets 30,000 to 70,000+ visitors per
year.

If the lots don't sell at auction, most likely they will be broken into
smaller pieces and sold as novelty items.

Anyone wishing to discuss this matter can email me and arrangements will be
made.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
 ATTENTION:   FLEE MARKET SELLERS WITH U-HAULS
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

It has come to ire attention that some folks (GigiBoB in perticuler) mite bee
pulling U-hauls in tandem to the Hank Williams 24-Hour Flee Market, Robo-Wash
and Family Fun Zone.

Note that, although U-hauls are more than welcome, there mite not bee room
enough to turn around with more than one trailer within the 6-plot flee market
area. Yew will have to make a wide swing thru the graveyard. 

Pleese observe the follering rules while pulling U-hauls acrost the graveyard:

1 - Observe standard graveyard driving etiquette. Be considerate, revernt and
keep to the right.

2 - Please do not jump the graves where mourners are present. Jump the
non-mourner graves first.

3 - Try to straddle as many graves as possible and not bounce the trailer. (I
no it's fun, but bouncing trailer noise is one of the mane complaints of
mourners in the Fun Zone.)

4 - If you do happen to accidently drive across any graves, I certainly hope
yew hit the non-Hank Williams ones first. Replace yore divots and fill-in tar
tracks. No snow tars.

5 - Mourners have the right of way at all times. Flash your brights at them
rather than blowing the horn whenever possible. "La cucaracha" horns are not
permitted except during the lunch hour.

6 - Remember that courtesy is contagious. So is hepatitis. Before you come to
the Fun Zone, get yore booster shots.

Please sign this form and brang it when yew come to unload yore flee market
items.

"I _____________(your name)__________________ understand that my mother does
not work here and I promise to clean up after myself. I will haul off all beer
cans, Ara Cee bottles, potato chip bags, cigarette butts and so forth when I

Holy smokes, Bob!!! I was trying to promote yore grave sale down at Abdul's
Cheep Gas & Impulse Item Emporium, and something jest hit me like a shovel to
the head!!

Looking at yore figgers and taking the average, I that's nearly 1,000 mourners
a week!! With that many folks tromping in and out of the graveyard, I'd say
some of them might git the hongries for a hot dawg, some kind of drank or gum
wooden yew say?

What's the answer? Abdul says self-serve Coke machines.  Here's my plan...
Instead of selling them 6 plots as plots, why not level it off and put in a few
Coke machines and pre-made sandwich machines? Abdul says don't put in chairs so
as to keep the mourners moving. Add a microwave. Napkins, catsup, straws, ex
cetra next to it. He's an expert in this field.

Maybe we only need 4 plots for the food tent. We could rent the others to flee
market vendors. Hank Williams hats, buttons or little plastic guitar-vases with
all-weather flowers for the mourners -- that sort of thang?

How far is it to the nearest outlet?

Well GLORY, Docter John!! That IS some good news!! I could tell that, unlike so
many of the other vagrants in this newsgroup, yew are one with excellent
judgmint and got shrewd bidness cents!

Wood you like one plot or too? 

And wood you like to buy or lease one of the cigarette machines? Or will yew
bee there in person hawking picks live? 

Either way is fine as long as yew stay within yore plot boundaries. (Of course
you kin reach out and slap at or yank folks in, or step over into the
refreshmint plot area for a snack or gum from time to time.)

And there is a big long list of some other fairly strict rules that all vendors
will have observe. For example, the list gives advice on the proper use of bull
horns, the wearing of tube tops, and so forth. The list will be taped up on the
back of one of the nearby non-Hank-Williams-relatives gravestones and/or
"public health ;) dispensers."

Also, we will be renaming it from "Oakwood Cemetery Annex" to the "Hank
Williams 24-Hour Flee Market, Robo-Wash and Family Fun Zone."

Welcome, Docter John, and saaaaaa-LUTE!!
