You can stop right there as far as I'm concerned!

Are you a vegetarian? I know you aren't vegan or you'd tell us in every post.

Well done. That has 2 meanings, 1, I like mine well done and 2, well done on the spices.
that's all I need.

Is that the way they cooked it for you in the mess hall?

 

[bertfan31]

Thanks. Sound like Dad has turned his life around. Great! Also heard during game that his Mom has MS. Not good. Got my sister.

He's doing a great thing. Anything these athletes can do to stop the cycle would be appreciated.

I just received a phone call, another one of my childhood friends has died with COVID. He died in Houston, TX Medical Center and has been on a ventilator for about 10 days. They will bring him back to be buried in Valdosta. GA.

64 years old. He was fully vaccinated.

Instead of 6 million dollars you are put together with 6 bits?

My replacement hips came from HIPSAREUS.com probably came from Chinar thru wallyworld!!!!!

Only really remember having steak one time in the military mess hall. Graduation ceremony from Jungle Training School. Steak and Lobster. Was my first lobster ever.

Wife told me one time, "why don't we just get a Tbone, I like the small side and you like the big side and we only have to cook one"? I told her EVERYBODY likes the small side sweetheart, it's the best part of a cow.

Congratulations D League! Now I'm hungry.

I worked with my dad on a dairy farm for over 30 years. We fattened Holstein steers for our beef. Looking back, that’s probably the reason I always make a sauce for and marinate steaks. The first non farm raised steak I ever had was in Bowling Green Ky. , can’t remember what restaurant. Took my fiancée out to eat and damn near choked on the first bite it was so dry. So I sauce em up.

About my rotator cuff surgery, true story. Dr. Alan Anderson did mine in Nashville (he tragically died in a chainsaw accident) he was a huge Tennessee Vols fan and we had some discussion about UK and tennorsee sports. So he tells me I am going to sew you together inside your shoulder with blue thread, I said that would be great, I get the photos of where it is sewed up and guess what color I have, ORANGE!!! I ask him about it and he just smiled!

Richard Anderson was the guy who played Oscar Goldman in the 6 Million Dollar Man the man who had Steve repaired. Coincidence?

When I was in the Army Lady Bird Johnson, wife of President Johnson did our menu. She was a Texan in cattle country and we had plenty of beef on the menu. I would guess we had steaks 2 to 3 times a month, maybe more often. Usually on Saturday or Sunday.

Another thing about Army life. When the mess Sgt drew the meals it was for a full company. A lot of days and weekends we had folks on pass. Most of the Cadre went to Louisville on the weekends. Since they missed chow their food was thrown away and taken to some place to feed some animal or make dog food. For some reason it was not donated for human consumption.

I developed a very good relationship with the Mess Sgt and he gave me and a couple of my buddies food that was not used. We picked out what we wanted. I lived off base and would take sides of beef home, nice steaks and lots of seafood. Fish, shrimp, etc.

Four of us bought a huge deep freeze and put it in our apartment basement. The apartment had four units, two up and two down and we were all in the same company. We ate better than I have in my life and it didn't cost a dime.

Good stories.

After visiting Fredericksburg a few years back, stopped at the Johnson Ranch Historical Park. I was surprised at how normal/average everything was. House was a big & rambling white frame, but nothing pretentious. Was added onto several times. Couldn't tour it at the time because Park Service was repairing as the structure was deteriorating & weak. The Johnsons' graves are in a family cemetery around a huge tree about a 1/2 MILE back of the house. Maybe 20-40 graves. Again, nothing pretentious. Headstones were large but reasonable. Surrounded by a 2' wall or so. Anyone could walk in as not guarded. But folks were respectful.

I used to enjoy watching The Weather Channel...

Unfortunately it is nothing more than a MOUTHPIECE for the LIB Leftist.

Yeah, I know, they've been that way for a while now but I just got around to posting my opinion.

Sorry Steph... but I prefer to get my weather news from...

Something stirring in my equatorial region making me hot. Must be the weather girl...I mean the weather. Steph ain't bad but, if she is a liberal perhaps we need to seed her clouded mind and let some sun light in.

Hope not, that would make a cold front come in and shrink the weather pattern.

You don't want to touch mine either and I'm not even a sansabelt in karate.

Nice to have you back cordmaker, I am up with you on Matthew 11.

Well I came a hair of joining you on the disabled list. I was working in the yard a few minutes ago doing some trimming with my weed wacker. I tripped over a metal object and went head first towards a concrete edge I have that separates a flower bed from the lawn. 5 years ago there is no way that would have happened. But this is not 5 years ago. My head barely missed it. Close call.

I started an addition to my pigeon loft back in the spring.....about six weeks ago I finally got around to sheathing the roof and putting some roofing on it......I fell off the rood.....I got lucky and fell into some tall Pampas Grass........it still shook me pretty good as it is a little over 9' foot off of the ground.........I banged up my right shoulder and elbow......I laid there a few minutes and the first thought I had was that I am too old for these kinds of shenanigans....some how or another it has slowed me down a notch or two.......I ain't hurting anywhere besides my normal aches...but I guess it just aged me some.......made my mind get in sync with my broken down body......

Someone is going to post a song tonight, might as well be this one. This little girl is 22 years old and from Germany. If you are familiar with this song, and I think that you are, you'll notice she is spot on.

Is the equatorial region just below the roof over the neverlands? If so, I can’t see it. But it feels strange after viewing the above posts. Very strange indeed. Maybe I should check a mirror.

Tomato season winding down, or is it? A film so bad that it's actually good. Saw this at a couple of midnight movies way back when.

Vet just called. Pup has a torn ACL. Looking at surgery.

Sigh.....

Not going to like this post. Really sorry Austin. Here's to a quick "after surgery" healing.

 

[UK82]

I put salt and pepper on my medium rare steaks and nothing else but maybe a little butter. I would eat the rare but my wife tells me it is better medium rare. If you are going to cover up the taste of a steak then buy cheap steaks.

Just my opinion!

Same here Bert.

Good morning D, read Matthew 11 this morning.

Just got back from therapy, feel pretty good right now! I have not had a good nights sleep since Labor Day week, usually up by 12:30, did sleep till 2:30 so I guess I will take that. I have been thru some things in my life, 5 surgeries, both hips replaced. both rotator cuff, and neck, but never have I dealt with something like this. My friend who I am going to at PT, we discussed some things Friday and changed my PT a little, have felt better since then, so maybe we are on the right road to recovery!!! I have not been in bed since this started either, sleeping in the recliner. He asked me what my pain level was and I told him, when one of those spasms hits, between 1-10 it's about a 15!!! But I have not had one since Friday.

Great win by the wildcats, I have already watched it 3 times, when you don't sleep you can watch lots of stuff. Defense looked great, I hope our QB gets better and I think he will!!!

I have been lurking around and saw yawl talking about Ky Legends hams, I had a sister that worked where they processed them in Owensboro and they could get employee discount on them but you had to buy a case, she would get a case, my cost for a WHOLE ham, $8, quiet a deal!!!!!

I hope the D has a great day! Bert jessie's family is on our GOD KNOWS LIST!!!!! Prayers for the D!!!!!

Best of luck to you Cord!

She's damn good but she looks a lot younger than 22.

Now I see why you mentioned the chain saw. Let that be a lesson to ye vols

Getting to be a normal every day scene in the D-League:

 

[UK82]

Shows have hit really tough times starting last year, but were struggling a bit already until 2017. I know a lot of crafters/artisans that have folded up shop since 2016. The shows had been their bread and butter. Some just retired altogether and sold their tools and equipment.

Things got better for a couple years 2018 and 19 before last year imploded

The people that got out of the business are glad they did, and some that stayed in made good money in those 2 yrs because of the shortage of competition. Hopefully they banked some of that money before 2020. Very quiet on that front the entire summer 2021 though, so who knows

The fair still has over 600 artists so I'm assuming it's doing well but what do I know. Not sure what the attendance was but since it was cancelled last year I'd guess quite high.

Thankful that MASH intro uses the still picture it does before you press play. Is it me or did women in the 60s and 70s just have better shape? More form and curve I mean. So many straight lines or circles these days. Hardly any farm girl shapes these days... Maybe it's just me seeing it

We have a customer who paints his lampshades in oceanic type scenes and then sends us the pattern and we turn it into a shade and ship them back to him. He sets up at St James as part of his tour. He imports the paint from France.

The loin side of a T bone or Porterhouse is the best meat known to man. I usually stick with ribeye as it is rich and tender, but Sherry prefers strip. I like the fat, Sherry not so much.

Porterhouse and Ribeye are my favorites as well. The fat on a ribeye is what makes it good imo.

I really hope you weren't making fun at this. Dr. Anderson died in a horrible tragic accident, cut the main artery in his leg when his chain saw slipped. It was reported he called his wife, told her what had happened and told her that he would be dead by the time they got there! Nobody deserves to die that way! Whether they are a Vol or not!!!

No. I thought YOU were.

I would expect a chain saw accident to be horrible, and guessed it happened exactly as you said. If you are assuming I think someone deserves to die that way or any way, then that's on you.

I reread your entire post that is posted as a humorous post, unless somehow "tenorsee" is somehow respectful of the tragedy in a way I don't understand. Where I'm from we don't so casually mix tragedy and humor if we can't handle the mix being reciprocated

Earlier I mentioned my accident. They called a surgeon in that night for emergency surgery. A couple of months later he was getting ready to go to work one night in the emergency room. His wife complained of a very bad headache. He told her to take aspirin (or something like that) and he would see her in the morning. She was dead when he got home. He quit doctoring and never started again.
