How NOT to hunt mushrooms

[tjwatty]

This sounds like an internet story but it's not. I got this from my son who got it from the horses mouth.

A railroad engineer spotted a good spot for mushrooms from the train and on his way home stopped to try his luck. After about an hour of very productive hunting he headed back to his truck. As he was nearing the edge of the woods he spotted a tractor next to his truck, since he had neglected to get permission to hunt on Mr. farmers property, he figured he'd wait him out. As we know farmers are a patient bunch so Mr. engineer decided to just go take his medicine. Mr. farmer says"Have any luck?" Mr. engineer figuring he was lucking out said, "Yea, I got a nice mess." Mr. farmer starts his tractor and says "Have a nice day." It was at this time Mr. engineer sees 4 fence posts driven in on all 4 sides of his truck, blocking front, rear and both doors. He yells at the farmer, "What about these posts?" Mr. farmer then says,(I love this part) "I can get those out for you." "For $50 each."
One nice mess of mushrooms $150
Ya gotta love those farmers. Let's see, tresspassing ticket $50 or $150 post removal charge. Good old midwestern justice.
