I thank I no that preacher, and (if it's the same one) he is fast on his feet
and a good judge of a character, I'll say. In fact, we (dba "Hank Williams
24-Hour Flee Market, Robo-Wash and Family Fun Zone") take checks too!!

The tally is still at $0 and counting.

Abdul says if they don't sell, for me to let him no right away. I notice that
the ebay auction ends tomorrow. If they don't sell, we need to jump on this
right away.

He says he has 4 Lucky Strike cigarette machines in the back room that we can
modify and use for selling such novelty items as souvenir bags of graveyard
dirt, bubble gum, cigarettes or other impulse items on the spot. He says he
will let the cigarette machines go for $150 each or all four for $500.

He also has 3 wall-type "public health ;) items" dispensers you can have for
free, provided you buy the refills from him.

The cigarette machines are free-standing and run on 110 volts. If the graveyard
won't let you run a cord out to the plot area, you can leave the front open and
operate them on the honor system. I wood bet that mourners are honest 80% of
the time or more.

As for the other machines, you could put them on posts.

One more question...How close is that bottom row to the road? And one drive up
there from the road without hitting too many other plots?

Reason I axe is that Abdul's brother, Harry, had an idear late last night.
Harry is a collector of old car parts and has a mind for bidness. Harry says
you mite bee able to turn them road-side plots into a car warsh. 

Harry sez what better time to git yore car warshed than while eating a hot dawg
and paying respects to the grate Hank Williams and others.

Then, when yew are finished up with the Simonize, slap a "Forgit, Hell!"
sticker on the back bumper and sail her off!

Good news, fellers. They didn't sell.  I say we take up a collection and see if
ol' Bobhwgs will sell 'em to us reasonable. $300,000 sounds high to me. What
say we chip in $20 a piece and see if he'll go for it.

I'll keep a tally. 

So far, we got $20.
