    Be careful...in some states if you stop payment for service rendered you can be charged. Depending on the $ in question it can be a felony! Check with your Police Dept or District attorney first.
    1. Once a cheat always a cheat!
    2. YES, SHE can get pregnant the first time!
    3. NO, PULLING out IS NOT a RELIABLE method of Birth Control. DAMMMMIT..... Wrap that shyte UP!!

    Women over 30 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you, if they think they can get away with it.

    For all those men who say, "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free". Here's an update for you. Nowadays 80% of women are against marriage, why? Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire Pig, just to get a little sausage.

    What the mind can conceive....the body will achieve!

    You might want to photograph it, show the measurements and then send him a letter telling him you intend to file a small claims suit against him if he doesn't deliver the rest of the wood you are due. You could try the "nice approach" first. Give them a chance to come and deliver the extra wood....because you are sure they didn't intend to short you that half cord...etc. If that doesn't work....write and threaten the lawsuit.
