Keep it going for you guys. Let's keep the politics limited this time.

A young woman visits her parents and brings her fiancée to meet them. After an elaborate dinner, the mother tells her husband to find out about the young man.

The father invites the fiancée to his library for a drink. "So what are your plans?" the father asks the young man.

"I am a Torah scholar," he says. "A Torah scholar? Hmmm," the father says.

"Admirable, but what will you do to provide a nice house for my daughter to live in, as she is accustomed to?"

"I will study," the young man said, "and God will provide for us."

"And how will you buy her a beautiful engagement ring, such as she deserves?" asks the father.

"I will concentrate on my studies," the young man replies. "God will provide for us."

"And children?" asks the father. "How will you support children?"

"Don't worry, sir, God will provide," replies the fiancée.

The conversation continues like this, and each time the father questions, the young idealist insist that God will provide.

Later, the mother asks: "How did it go, Honey?"

The father answers: "He has no job and no plans, but the good news is he thinks I'm God."

Good thing the boss is paying for your time Gunny. He doesn t like the body shop guy, trying to pad the bill? What s the first thing you have to check when the lights on a trailer go? The ground those little things drive you nuts. I still haven t found a tequila I like the taste of. I m looking forward to see who can get the taco shells or buns the highest from blowing up the food trucks. Who ever gets the highest drinks for free for the night.

hey gunny and i are waiting with the tanks for some fun but dw's food trucks keep chickening out.

Topa- we have a small house, ( I don't live in the society section in So Cal.) it is just a couple hundred square feet bigger than my new shop….so I built what we call the party cove complete with a sink, 4 grills, a bar and two stainless steel topped tables…amongst all the tables it seats ten. One of the SS tables houses my Jimmy Buffet Marg Machine. Many guests give me booze for gifts….I got some Patron in Jan. Soon as the weather gets nice, I am going to try margs with Patron. What do you mix your Tequila with? And what brand do you use…in the past we have used Jose Gold….. Looking to branch out….

Brian…what has happened to the First amendment? Our speech is free….not if there is censors!

This one is for Mike

While taking a routine vandalism report at an elementary school, I was interrupted by a little girl aged about six years old.

Looking up and down at my uniform, she asked: "Are you a cop?"

"Yes," I answered, and continued writing the report.

"My mother said if I ever needed help, I should ask the police. Is that right?"

'Yes, that's right," I told her.

"Well, then," she said as she extended her foot toward me. "Would you please tie my shoe?'"

The last few are for the Duck

Walking can add minutes to your life.
This enables you at 85 years old to spend an additional 5
months in a nursing home at $7000 per month.
My grandpa started walking five miles a day when he was 60.
Now he's 97 years old and we don't know where he is.
I like long walks, especially when they are taken by people
who annoy me.
The only reason I would take up walking is so that I could hear
heavy breathing again.
I have to walk early in the morning, before my brain figures out
what I'm doing..
I joined a health club last year, spent about 400 bucks.
Haven't lost a pound.
Apparently you have to go there.
Every time I hear the dirty word 'exercise',
I wash my mouth out with chocolate.
I do have flabby thighs,
but fortunately my stomach covers them.
The advantage of exercising every day is so when you die,
they'll say,
'Well, he/she looks good.'
If you are going to try cross-country skiing, start with a
small country.
I know I got a lot of exercise the last few years,
just getting over the hill.
We all get heavier as we get older,
because there's a lot more information in our heads.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
AND Every time I start thinking too much about how I look,
I just find a Happy Hour and by the time I leave, I look just fine.

Moke That sounds like a real nice place to hang out and drink.

Poured a JWB on the rocks. Wife is at the gym. I am not drinking alone, I have a dawg.

Ron Grouper sandwich. Nice choice . Lots of places in Ft Myers to get that (fresh caught too) Covid put a lot of these ma pop restaurants on the edge.

Petey--You never drink alone especially when the dog never takes there eyes off you! I laughed out loud….

Pottz…lets bring the gang in!! Now it may be a little cold in Iowa and there is still snow in the Party cove! I'll whip up a little something on the grills….Fried Potatoes on the griddle grill and Italian seasoned chicken breast on the Green Mountain….they are large though…I only do large breasts! The big white dogs might get jealous of the hounds…but if you bring the beagle maybe it can teach the little one to howl….Oh I forgot to mention…I live in cattle/hog country…we don't eat no Cali meat…..Just a little tip, you heard Iowa is the corn state, it's not to eat, it's feed for livestock!

Corelz-I worked mostly in a small town…I'd be ok tying a little girls shoe! I have done far wierder…I helped get a pony out of a swimming pool…I used to work Monday Afternoons and I religiously carried an older gals groceries in after her husband died…I probably did that for three or four years! I always told the new hires that closing the door didn't make it a sealed unit….until I got old, in the last year or so…then if you wanted a ticket from me you had to hit my car.

Lived in Tampa area (Brandon) for 35 years. Moved from there 13 years ago. Miss the good places to eat
Wonder every so often how the Cuban Sandwich Shops in Ybor City, Beach places, etc. have fared. Need to go back and visit.

Nothing better than when someone tells you where you will be and where the tanks will be- i.e. Iowa…


The mix!!!!!!
What's in Jose Cuervo Margarita Mix?

Ingredients: WATER, HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP, CITRIC ACID, NATURAL FLAVORS, SODIUM CITRATE, SODIUM BENZOATE, POTASSIUM SORBATE, CELLULOSE GUM, SAIB, POLYSORBATE 60, AND FD&C YELLOW 5.

You didn't mention triple Sec and a salt-rimmed glass…

It's all about the perfect ratio. May I suggest 2 parts tequila: 1 part triple sec: 1.75 parts lime juice.

Margarita is Spanish for "daisy"
and the brandy Daisy is a cocktail that dates back to the late 19th century. The true identity of the inventor of the margarita has been lost to history, but we do know that it was developed by subbing brandy in the Daisy for tequila and replacing the lemon juice with lime.

Gasing up and preparing the trucks…

Pottzy-instead of bringing the meat, how about if you swing thru Sonoma and pick up some vino, on the way here.
Maybe with some delicious Cali vino, the Duck would swing by. We could take away the nasty "yellow-tail" and introduce him the good stuff!

DW-from personal experience, I would prefer to buy the mix that has Grand Marnier in it. It really makes it tasty. The mix is about 20.00 per bottle but it has the booze in it too. I personally like to spice up the mix with a dash of sugar, a little more Lime and Lemon juice, and the Mikey secret ingredient is orange juice. Not a lot….an ounce or so in a pitcher of three Margs. It makes a tangy Marg, but my favorite. so depending on what mix I buy, or even whats available I take an old Lemon Juice dispenser that has the pour spout and make up that additional concoction, and add it to the mix I have in the Marg maker. If the mix I bought doesn't have Grand Marnier, I add it to the concoction. Look out though, the straight Grand Marnier is about 55.00 per bottle.

The dire wolf knows how to howl. Its easy to get him to do it. You can have a conversation with him. Haha Gunny that reminds me when I was younger and I worked in the deli pet in a supermarket. I would go in the back sometimes and I would grab either Beck's dark or Heiniken dark. I had it in a clear plastic cup sitting on the shelf one night. The general store manager comes strolling in. I looked at my cup and watched him walk right past it. Lucky the dark beers look like soda.

Anything like yellowtail is wallmart grape juice with food grade alcohol mixed in.

True story, a local winery would go to wallmart and buy a skid of Concord grape juice. In there defense, they used it for there sugar wines, not the real stuff.

My fondest local wine was a Catawba that was aged in a bourbon barrel.
