  1. There was once a man who was always carrying bogdeal to town and whatever money he would get he would drink it. He was asleep inside in the rail and a few men made up a plan. They lifted the man out of the car and took the wheels off the car and took the rail off the car and took the ginit from the car. They carried the car into the house and put the wheels under and put the rail on it and put the man into it and put the ginit under it. When the man woke in the morning he thought it was the goyes that put him into the house and he never drank any more.
