Wednesday 11/19/08---in summary

On a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the best, I would give today a 4. The weather was most excellent, the temp in the mid 80's, clear and sunny. My garden crew was here early and did their mow and blow thing, and put out my trash cans for pickup. I had my morning coffee and the last of Tish's great muffins on the patio for breakfast.

Later I went out and got my haircut for Thanksgiving, should look great in a week, (won't have that raw fresh cut look to it). I re-discovered the big stereo console in the living room and have found a nice radio station playing my music of the 60's and 70's, bringing back a rush of my single bar hopping days , ----what a wild era that was.

Tonight I will have a thick sliced ham steak dinner, with mashed potatoes, and corn---and will watch the last six episodes of "Its Always Sunny In Philadelphia" (Season 1&2 on disc from Netflix---3hrs running time)---no commercials, no interruptions---and what the heck will have a package of jolly time popcorn to go with it.

Tomorrow is "Fluff n Fold" time-----(sigh)(lol)

  1. Always Sunny is hilarious! I love that show....Danny DeVito on acid. CSI has nothing on that.

    Ever watch Arrested Development?

    Reminds me of the saying, "What's the difference between a bad haircut and a good one? ---Eight days!!"

    Thank you for your kind get well wishes, they were appreciated.

  7. It seems a good program. So you got cut your hair and for Thanksgiving you don't want to look like the young GI's with their ultra-short hair? You are right, they could be jealous of you!
    (I try to make humour but I'am not sure of the result ! :)

  8. Yes Judi, I have put the "old dude" blog in storage, now that I had modified this blog to the 3 column template, and I am looking forward to the family fest on T-day with the family. (I will be bringing Uncle Bob, in tghat I have to drive past his place to get to Mels, and him not really liking to drive anymore.)

  9. Helene: (LOL) your English is just fine, and your humor is most enjoyable. Your right a guy doesn't like to appear like he just cleaned up for the occassion, the goal is to always look good, but nobody ever sees the effort one puts into it----least thats how I like to think of it.

  10. Hey Gary ... have you ever heard of "red eye gravy"? When my dad used to make ham steaks, he would take the grease that was left over in the pan, add a little water to it and he called it "red eye gravy". He would then serve it over biscuits. I'm thinking it's probably a southern thing.
