Nite Ollie.

I love Brussels sprouts! Loved them all of my life. They are yummy and good for your tummy. That is all.

Really? I love brussel sprouts, properly prepared, too. Can't get Hombre to touch them though. He delights in pointing out data (he found somewhere) that brussell sprouts are America's most hated vegetable.

Tonight we had lightly breaded porkchops fried just right, roasting ears on the cob, home made cole slaw, and stove top dressing for the starch. It was good.

And for the heck of it:

Left-overs? Mrs. BBD fixed me a hamburger.

 

[Big Black Dog]

I guess this is as good of a time as any to say "Good night".

 

[Noomi]

Good night BBD!

Last night I went to the corner store and brought home the biggest, juiciest hamburger you ever did see. I devoured it. This morning, 1.30am, I was up, feeling like I wanted to curl into a ball and die. I was so pale, and my face was turning this sickly shade of grey. I was in such pain. I suspect it may have been a touch of food poisoning, which is horrible to even think of, as our mates at the corner store are wonderful people. But I was the only person who ate a burger last night, and the only person to fall ill.

I was awake until 5am when I called work to say I wasn't coming in for my 6am shift. My boss answered the second time I called and asked for a medical certificate. As I am casual, I don't need to provide her with one. I find it rather insulting that she would want me to waste my time driving into town to a doctor (its a Sunday, too) who bulk bills (I cannot afford to pay right now) and risk exposing myself to other people's sickness. I should be at home resting - which is what I am doing.

Hope all is well with everyone here!

[Spoonman]

Can anybody tell me what the "best" thing was before sliced bread?

fire

 

[Noomi]

It was unsliced bread.

 

[Hossfly]

Can anybody tell me what the "best" thing was before sliced bread?

WONDER what was the best thing before sliced bread?

- beer

Toilet paper.

 

[Pogo]

It was unsliced bread.

That was what I said!

My first thought was "sex" but that would mean sliced bread is better than sex, so that can't be right...

There it is. Sliced bread is better than toilet paper.

Gonna have to take your word for that Hoss.

Aw man... so busy all week. On Monday I had to have a tooth pulled, with one to go middle ways in July. Tonight I've been at work in this house for the past 7 hours doing some major redecorating to my room. I put in a new shelf and a new set of drawers. I packed two boxes worth of 120 VHS Cassette Tapes, which weighed nearly 50 lbs each, and disassembled an old shelf... I still need to sweep up and throw away some things. But my room is officially clean. With the 13 pounds I've lost in the past 6 weeks, I've had more stamina to do menial labor around the house, my strength is as it was when I was in high school. I was 282 as of April 30th. I am 269 as of yesterday.

I like where this is going.

Ah yes, and happy Fathers Day to all the dads out there.

Harumphhhhh! My cats didn't think that was funny........

Brussels sprouts are pretty much my favorite vegetable, but I love eggplant also.

I think for some people it is....
