I've had plenty of pratice playing in school at my lunch tables for money. (Good times, good times). hehehehehe

QUOTE: Originally posted by espeefoamer Originally posted by cherokee woman Brought some good veggies back from Produce today: yellow squash, onions, cucumbers, and potatoes. So have fried up some potatoes with onions and squash in them. Boy, is that good. Hope you all enjoy it for lunch today. Since it is so hazy, hot and humid today, think supper will be hamburgers/ cheeseburgers and some more fried potatoes w/onions & squash cut up in them. Didn't get any big sqash; otherwise, I'd slice them, batter them, and fry them for supper also. Maybe next week. Sounded good until you got to the squash part.Ewwww,I hate squash[xx(]! Ride Amtrak.

I think that I might be able to sneak in some railfanning on the way home though. If I do I will take some pictures and post them when I get back. Bye emmar Yes we call it the Dinky. Why?

I just got done planting my vegetable garden yesterday. What kind? If asparagus is in there - I will be out back gagging! CW's squash was almost too much! [tdn] I planted squash, zuccini, cucumbers, lettuce, potatoes,onions, garlic, corn and probably a few more but I can't remember them right now. No I did not plant asparagus. I do like asparagus but they don't grow at all where I live and the reason that I grow squash is that the squa***hat they sell in the store is horrible. This is a very interesting thread. It seems to be all off topic but there needs to be somewere to talk about the rest of the world (although trains are most of my life). Happy Eating! Yes we call it the Dinky. Why?

I could bring a Karaoke setup (one of my sideline businesses when not playing in the band) and we could yodel in the park. Usually achohol is a contributing factor in Karaoke though. Liquid courage!

Sis, I'd need refresher courses on all of those games! Cher, I'm feeling much better this morning. A normal breakfast will do me well. Then I'm out the door to join my wife on a three-hour shift answering phons for our classical-music radio station's fund drives. After that, a little shopping (at LaGrange!) and going to get fitted for a tux (wedding's less than a month away!).

Last one sitting wins. I used to be a pretty fair euchre player myself,but don't think I've ever played that way,and you would have a hard time keeping me sitting on a block of ice,no matter how warm I was!![xx(][(-D] Being Crazy,keeps you from going "INSANE" !!

Didn't lose any money (it being a free game and all), but had a good time.
