Then you'll like this:
On the "austin.forsale" newsgroup:
"Oar Needed"
"I would like to procure one old oar. Free would be wonderful, but I am
willing to pay a small amount."
To which someone posted the following reply:
"You used to be able to find old oars at your neighborhood oar house, but
the city closed most of these establishments years ago.
"Your best bet, currently, is to check dark downtown street corners in the
early evenings.
"Sometimes an old oar is painted over to make it look like a new oar. Strong
light or dipping your oar in the water will discover the truth.
"Unsuspecting oar sers sometimes find themselves up a cr with a paddle
instead of an oar. Please be careful in this regard or you will not be
satisfied.
"Good luck in your quest."

| Yeah! Excellent!
One of the things I liked most about Texas was the Texan sense of humour.
Glad to see it is still alive and well... :-)
