The connections are bad

As Kadizzle rode the ebike to the grocery store he ran across Colonel Klink.  Klink's wife has lots of oil cheese as he story goes, so Klink has a big allowance.  What happens when you mix a lot of money with a little brains.  Some strange things for sure.  Years ago Klink went to Africa and shot an elephant.  Klink was sure he would be a small town hero so he put up a steel shed in his yard to make the elephant a museum. When he invited people over to see the elephant parts he paid dearly to have shipped to town people said " Why didn't you leave that poor elephant alone?".  Klink loves killing things.  His next trip took him to Russia to kill a bear.  The bear was way out in Siberia not bothering anyone, but Klink had to kill the poor bear. 

Awhile back Kadizzle stopped to see Klink.  In his garage at that time was an outrageous Harley Hog. It had every bell an whistle imaginable.  It looked like the sort of brick one might ride down the road and then stop, and then fall over.  Sure enough Klink fell over every time he took the brick for a ride.  Klink said it took three people to right the brick when it fell.  Now with this as a background the story begins.  Klink proceeds to proudly show me his solution to picking up the brick.  Only Klink could come up with such insanity.  Klink welded a complicated tripod that he could disassemble. The contraption would fit in a plastic tube and could be set up to right the brick when it fell. Now imagine a guy at an intersection whose motorcycle has fallen over.  Harley dog gets off and assembles a strange device to lift the motorcycle. Since Klink had the strange device built he decided to try it to lift the riding mower to sharpen the blades.   The invention failed and the riding mower crashed to the ground.  Realizing the folly of his idea Klink traded the two wheeled hog for a three wheeled hog that will not fall over.  It was a long ride from A to B, but he finally got there.  Klink stories could go on all day.  Klink features himself as a bit of a genius. This can happen when you have unlimited funds from your wife.  You can get the idea you can accomplish anything when you are funded deeply.  Klink dabbles in real estate buying and selling property.  Somehow he features himself a clever land developer.  It reminds one of the old saying  " How do you make a small fortune? Start with a big one".
