Wasn't it Mr Whipple who said "Don't squeeze the Charmin?"

Sorry couldn't resist. I've got nothing funny to add.

Ok. Now that everyone has had their fun, both BMS07 and I are looking for a WHIFFLE TREE. Anyone got one or two?

BMS07 - You CAN go back to your original posting, hit the "EDIT" button at the bottom of the posting, and correct the spelling so you can get this thread back on track.

Noun: whiffletree 'wiful`tree

1. A crossbar that is attached to the traces of a draft horse and to the vehicle or implement that the horse is pulling

Okay, I looked it up. Are you guys restoring military horse-drawn wagons?

LOL, No... A whiffle tree is a bar that attaches to the tow rings on a military vehicle so that the wrecker can lift it. Do a search and you can find pics.
