A guy I knew (he's not from Texas) walked into a lumber supply store and asked for a certain amount of 2 x 4s. The employee asked "how long do you want them"? "I need them for a long time. I'm building a barn".

A friend of mine bought a church and has concerts and parties there. The first couple of times I attended it felt a little strange sitting in a pew and drinking beer. He's a savvy real estate guy so he probably got a good deal on it.
