1. When he started with his job, MiddleFingerMomDad was in sales...

...and traveled great distances over long periods of time in the
family station wagon on his sales route. He also always had
these fantastic gargantuan gardens (least favorite gardening
chore -- weeding... most favorite -- pickin' fresh peas... "One
for the bucket... two for me)."
.
Once, right before one of his sales trips, he ordered x number
of yards of manure to be delivered to the house for his garden,
having not a single clue how much a "yard" was going to be (or
the fact that, in this instance, they were cubic yards).
.
MiddleFingerMom told me it was the closest she ever came to
considering divorcing him. He got a cryptic, CHILLY call telling
him to turn around and come home THIS VERY INSTANT AND
I DON'T CARE IF YOU LOSE YOUR JOB OR NOT
.
.
.
.
He came home to find that x number of yards of stinky ol'
cowshit had taken two dumptrucks to deliver and construct
the mountain under MiddleFingerMom's second-floor kitchen
window.
.
.
.
MiddleFingerMomDad was a jerk, but in some ways... I am
VERY much like him.
