I tell you what......in a fellow BOTL's back yard and not even a cigar......

Hate to hear about the trouble. Funny thing is I know the gas station, the GM guy, and the owner of the dealership you went to. I grew up in Harrison and have been through Alpena many many times(beerruns). On top of that, I work in Bentonville and live about 20 minutes away. I talked to a buddy and he mentioned hearing about some poor guy who lost his keys down the toilet.....small small world. Glad it turned out well.

no kidding?! yeah, the guy's name was Ron M (I'll spare putting his whole name up) heck of a nice guy

I went to college at JBU in Siloam, so I spent a lot of time in the area, and my wife's whole family, save her brother live in Bentonville or Centerton. If I could ever escape family obligations while visiting I'd love to get together with some of you guys

Any time man. We have about 10 local guys who meet in Fayetteville. I live up in Pea Ridge. There is also a new cigar/pipe shop opened up in Rogers. You should stop in next time your around.

I can relate I lost more darn sets of keys in the lake and and around the marina I used to work at. The rule at the marina was that you owed all the people that worked with a case of beer if you fell in the water or dropped your keys in the drink
Glad you did not have to pay that piper and all worked out well

Downtown Rogers. It is actually just to the right of the large coke sign painted on the wall. Almost across from the old theatre.

thats a pretty impressive story, it actually beats my "lose the keys to the rental car in a club in slovenia, rent another car, drive back to italy, to get the spare key from the rental place then drive back to slovenia to return he other car and get the original.."

Sounds like a hell of a trip. Glad to hear your home safe. Now you have a great story to tell the grand kids one day!
