Heck yeah. Unless we go to the gulf coast, then all we will see at the beach is oil.

Pensacola and Panama are the only areas affected as of right now. You would love Clearwater Beach, Treasure Island, Ft. Desoto Beach all beautiful. Probably more girls at Clearwater.

Had a Dentist appt yesterday to get a cavity filled. Dr. said something didn't look right and re-x-rayed me. Turns out they someone elses x-ray in my file and I almost got my tooth drilled on for no reason. Good eye Doc, nice save. I would have been pizzed.

Hey Behr, why do all the potential chefs on Hell's Kitchen smoke like chimneys? I could not start identifying flavors and appreciating the subtleties until I quit smoking 12 years ago. I don't think I would trust a meal being good if the chef was a smoker. What do you think?

I might get to pick some green beans today or tomorrow. I might even pick some green tomatos and try to pickle some.

I think it's an industry issue. They're young work long hours and don't finish their shift until late at night. They go to the bar and have a drink with fellow employees and talk shop. A dinner service can last 4-6 hours non stop, and if you are a smoker, that's a long time without a smoke.

As far as the taste issue, IMO....they can still taste and if they have any culinary knowledge at all, they know what to look for in flavors and know what works and what doesn't.

I like that show, but it has some of the worst canidates I could imagine.

These are pics of a tree that we planted in our front yard last year. It's a royal empress tree. I broke it down to the ground in March. About a week or 2 after we Chance was born I noticed a little green coming out of the ground(end of March). The first pic is from Sunday June 6th. The 2nd pic is from last Sunday(the 20th). I can't believe how much it is growing. It will bloom flowers in the spring and then grow the big leaves in the summer.

I'll def fry some as well. I just remember this NY style deli that we had a few years ago that had a pickele bar. They had pickled peppers, okra, tomatos... I loved the tomatos. Figured I would try to do some baby green tomatos myself. We have about 60 tomatos on the vine so far. No way we will ever eat that many mater sammiches. Got to find something to do with them.

Well, if they were all sharp and talented, we would have no one to mock. I guess it's like IDOL putting on all the rejects.

Have any of you heard that joke about the little boy out on the sidewalk stomping ants?

A preacher comes by and asks him why he was killing the ants. The little boy says because they are worthless!

The preacher says "all of Gods creations have a purpose". The little boy says "not these ants"

The preacher says "okay, if you can tell me 3 things that are completey worthless. I'll go on and leave you alone, but if you can't, you have to stop stomping those ants"

Little boy scratches his head for a minute and says " Tits on a nun, balls on a priest and these MF ants"

Thats how I feel about these MF fleas!!!!
