A strong young man at a construction site was bragging that he could out do any of the older workmen.
After listening to him run his mouth for several hours, one of the 'older' workers had enough. "Why don't you put your money where your mouth is," he said. "I will bet a week's wages that I can haul something in a wheelbarrow over to that building that you won't be able to wheel back.
"You're on, old man," the braggart replied. Let's see you do it."
The old man reached out and grabbed the wheelbarrow by the handles. Then, nodding to the young man, he said, "All right, Dumb Ass, get in."
