It’s a shame that our university and the Regal Blues failed to advertise their 3 day camp this week. My daughter is one of the 9 or 10 who signed up. Great opportunity missed because I know of more than a handful of parents who wish their little darlin could attend, but they didn’t know.
Not woke to advertise for just girls.Quote:

i can't even get anyone to argue with me about the best part of a brisket?
Depends on what stage of the meal I'm atQuote:

Agree on birthday cake because I don’t like a ton of icing. Agree on brownie. A little bit crispy so the ice cream softens it up. I like the whole watermelon down to the rind. Agree on the brisket. Too much of the point is too fatty. If it’s cooked properly, I prefer the lean flat and a little toward the point. I cook a mean boneless chicken breast that is very moist, but I do like the thighs better. Hope springs eternal until the opening kick and sometimes a play or 2 later.Quote:

This is assuming it's been cooked well enough for the fat to render properly so it just melts in your mouth. Otherwise, give me something near the middle.Quote:

Most food tastes better when it's made for you (preferably with love).
it goes without saying
Might have said this before, but……
There is something seriously wrong when my wife can pay $40 every 2 years for her continuing ed to save lives as a nurse. I pay $500-600 to get hours for residential appraising.
Curious what it costs in Texas, Arkansas, and Mississippi. My best guess would be 1/2 that much.Quote:

My wife pays for her license renewal and continuing ed only. It’s less than $100 every 2 years for those 2 things. For my license renewal and continuing ed every 2 years it’s close to $1000. We have to carry E&O insurance as well. I wasn’t including that. Just referring to the minimum required just to keep a license.
in macy's today with texastina and our youngest daughter. wife said she was going to go get some hose while the daughter and i were checking out a candy display. after we finished looking at candy, i looked around for texastina and realized she had gone to get hose. so i said out loud, "where the hose at?" the look on my daughter's face snapped me to the reality of how it sounded. if anyone else heard it, they pretended not to.
Great Dad speak!Quote:
