Judge Rutherford soon took control and shaped the doctrine

Glad you explained that lol.

First time in about 15 years that it is not at our house. Down at the kids (Aron and Jena)

We will go help cook.

I will be working on purging the shop more.

Preparing to be gone from here about 3.5 months to my southern office.

The rest of the family is in charge (to a point) while I'm on the road.

I’m splitting the tab for Cracker Barrel

you gotta be kidding
If Cardboard barrel (what their food tastes like) weren't located directly off interstates , they'd fold up

..L.T.A.

No sipping from the jug?

Have you ever tasted moonshine?

 

[Lee Stockwell]

Depends on who is in the kitchen. Our CBs are pretty good. The one in Murray is over 20 miles from the nearest interstate.

I will take any excuse to get together with family, with no apologies. If it happens to be somebody's holiday, more power to them.

 

[Cleanworks]

Have you ever tasted moonshine?

I have. I had an old uncle out in the sticks in the Eastern townships of Quebec who had a still. Probably not as good as that southern liquid corn.

 

[DAT]

Have you ever tasted moonshine?

I have.. straight from ND. Strong stuff. My dad used it for cleaning car parts.

Your sense of smell and taste change as you age. Between the ages of 40 and 50, the number of taste buds decreases, and the rest begin to shrink, losing mass vital to their operation. After age 60, you may begin to lose the ability to distinguish the taste of sweet, salty, sour, and bitter foods.

May you age gracefully...

Unless you were or still smoking. Your gonna look like leathery wrinkly prune with COPD looking like 100 yrs old when you're only 58 yrs losing your taste buds years ago... Not so graceful after all.

Just having a simple family Thanksgiving at at our house.
Just want to say 'Thanks' for this board and all the contributors, site keepers, and the big guy himself Mikey.
Lots of good conversation, info, and experience to learn from.

 

[BradFenstermaker]

My Dad coming for a 5 star breakfast.
Relax awhile then have to load up for late Pot Roast lunch at inlaws.

Stretch pants will be worn.

 

[Nomad74]

I'm deep frying a turkey and also making one in the oven. I invited my homeless dad. It will be the first time in 15 years we had T-giving together.

 

[DAT]

Why is he homeless?

 

[Nomad74]

Why is he homeless?

His house burned down in the Paradise Fire.

 

[DAT]

Wow, that really sucks. I remember now from previous post. I mustve missed that was your dad property. Thats terrrible.

I went to my first and last Cracker Barrel back in February when I was in Orlando.

Dennys has better food and service.

 

[DAT]

I love Dennys. Ya can point the pic of what you want. I never have to speak a word..

I was reminded of one thing I left out:

Every year, I ask Carol to not drop a political or religious "bomb" over dinner.

She has one sister who is a professor at a university and is liberal and an atheist, another sister who is deeply religious and believes women shouldn't work, a brother who is a vegan from Santa Cruz (of all places...), and another brother who is a conservative small business owner who loves hunting.

They always try to have a truce for the sake of their mother, who is the ruling matriarch of the family.

But then, invariably, Carol gets this smile on her face and deliberately brings up the whatever is the most incendiary issue of the day. Then she sits back and laughs....

Me? I'd rather enjoy the meal, but she sees it as "dinner and a show".

Funny I can relate.....I could video some Hannity....I turn it on jus as we sit to eat.....

She sounds like me. I like to play this game where I get certain family members ranting and raving about politics on both sides of the spectrum. Just as they think they've won, I throw a stick in their tire and point out their hypocrisy and watch them blubber through contradicting everything they just said. Then watch both sides argue and eventually go outside unnoticed, jump on my 4 wheeler, and rip through the freshly harvested field to the woods out back of my grandparents property looking for corn snakes, deer, and coyote.

Women can't cook these days so I do all of the cooking.
But I cook what I want!

Big FAIL in our society when mothers couldn't teach their daughters HOW to cook. I tell my sons that women are like a new car. At first it's all new and shiny and people admire you at stop lights. But after 6 months the luster wears off..................especially if they can't COOK. So I tell them first priority is find one that can...................COOK.

 

[hogjowl]

Amen

Did a little more demo of the house today but we still had Thanksgiving.

 

[hogjowl]

Why the burned out truck?
I thought it was a hurricane?
