Where Did All The Old Timers Go, A Public Meeting Place For Open Discussion

Good morning all at AD. We had one hell of a thunderstorm last night in Siler City, NC. We did need the rain, it woke me up, a biggie.

gerry, listen to his stories as much as you can, I lost my dad when I was very young, still remember him like it was yesterday and miss the stories.

To all, have a nice day. George

 

Good morning all! gerry1 What a delight to have your father with you in good health and demeanor along with the history being given to you in person. greensman can relate worked at the Country Club for 12 years first place cuts took place was on the yard crew, not realizing the course is where their bread and butter is not the club house.

Congrats to your dad gerry. I would love to be a fly on the wall to hear the stories that he would tell.

 

good night

 

Enjoy these moments in time Gerry..... they will have to last you a life time and guide you along the way. Again, cheers to you both, you have my best wishes.

 

@Onya ... thanks my friend. Of all my aunts, uncles, cousins etc. (we have a huge family) my dad is everyone's favorite. We still joke with him about my mom, who was much more proper than dad; her most frequent and memorable words at the table were to my dad. She would always tell him "T'es plus pire que les enfants" ... "You're even worse than the kids" LOL!

Good morning all! Busy day today but at least the ol' bones don't hurt much today!

 

I read that myself before i saw your english translation

 

@Billyboy...good for you, meboy! Beautiful language, French is and much more sensible than English. I'd love to hear French with a british accent LOL! The funniest though was when I went to Montreal last and went to a Chinese restaurant. French with a Chinese accent sound really bizarre LOL!

BBQ Rules!

We are about to enter the summer and BBQ season. Therefore it is important to refresh your memory on the etiquette of this sublime outdoor cooking activity, as it's the only type of cooking a 'real' man will do, probably because there is an element of danger involved.

When a man volunteers to do the BBQ the following chain of events are put into motion:

Routine...

(1) The woman buys the food.
(2) The woman makes the salad, prepares the vegetables, and makes dessert.

(3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to the man who is lounging beside the grill - beer in hand.

Here comes the important part:

(4) THE MAN PLACES THE MEAT ON THE GRILL.

More routine....

(5) The woman goes inside to organize the plates and cutlery.

(6) The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is burning. He thanks her and asks if she will bring another beer while he deals with the situation.

Important again:

(7) THE MAN TAKES THE MEAT OFF THE GRILL AND HANDS IT TO THE WOMAN.

More routine....

(8) The woman prepares the plates, salad, bread, utensils, napkins, sauces, and brings them to the table.
(9) After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes.

And most important of all:
(10) Everyone PRAISES the MAN and THANKS HIM for his cooking efforts.


(11) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed "her night off." And, upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that there's just no pleasing some women....

 

LOL! I guess the "dangerous" part is when the male actually lights the grille; a mushroom cloud of nearly nuclear proportion!

Good morning all!
