I didn't know if the Detailing Forum would be the better place for this question ... but when I tried to soften some rough spots on the hides the darn thing got nasty and wanted to bite my a_ _ ... Suggestions are welcome!

This may be old and long but here goes:

A guy walks into a bar with an allegator and makes his way to the bar. He sits down and declares to the room he will open the allegators mouth, unzip his pants, insert his nuts into the allegators mouth, and close the allegators mouth on his nuts for 1 minute...and for his efforts, everyone in the bar must agree to buy him a drink. After a few seconds of loud discussion, the crowd agrees to see the feat. Just as he explained, the man unzips his pants, takes out his nuts and puts them in the allegators mouth. As the crowd is in ahhh, 1 minute expired and the man takes an empty beer bottle, gives the allegator a little rap to the head and the allegator opens his mouth with the mans nuts un-scathed! As the man is now enjoying the first of many free drinks, he jumps up and makes this offer: "I'll give $100 to anyone willing to try this feat!" Their is again commotion in the crowd with no one willing when all of a sudden a hand is raised in the back corner. An attractive blonde girl wearing an Audi shirt emerges and says she's willing to give it a try but only as long as he doesn't hit her in the head with the bottle!!!!

Ok sorry to any blonds out there!
