Lucky you, Kwik E, to have a gramma like that. [&o][&o][&o] As we get older, it's funny the things we remember, isn't it?

Well, here's a prayer and a candle to your gran; may she rest with the Saints. Kinda think God will know who I mean when I say Kwik E's Gramma; He's good about that kinda stuff.

Ah, well, Stanley Cup starts tonight. Utterly detest the Kings, and the Devils fill me with inertia. Only other thing on TV is a Cajun cooking show, Iron Chef - duck (in Chinese), or the Movie That Will Not Be Named (somebody really ought to call the studio). Poo, will have to do Master and Commander again.

...there's always king baby and the culture club (Heat) versus GI Joe and the headband gang (Celtics)...

...Blue Bell is nice, but to get the REAL experience, you've got to break out the hand cranked ice cream makin' machine out in granny's back yard...wooden exterior bucket with the metal interior bucket...cream, sugar, maybe some peaches or strawberries mixed in...start crankin' and don't forget to add the rock salt in between the buckets to keep the ice cold and colder...'bout the time the lightnin' bugs start flittin' about and the katydids start their moonlit serenade, the rag holding down the crank mechanism is soakin' wet and frigid cold...pop's arm is tired, but he takes over since us yougun's don't have the stamina and catchin' lightnin' bugs starts to seem a whole lot more interesting after a few turns on the crank...granny's got the warm peach cobbler all sliced up and ready in the multicolored aluminum bowls ready for a scoop or two of summer time goodness on the top...RIP, granny...you made summer time a magical time for a young country boy...[&o]
Darn it, Boy, you pulled on the heartstrings with that one. And rightly so. I bow to granny, with my most profound respects.

...she's been gone a while now, but those summer nights seem like yesterday...i think sometime in the late 60's or early 70's she went high falootin' and got a version with a fancy eelectronic motor...not the same, but all was/is forgiven...
Add a glass of granny's sweet ice tea while you're churnin'

Round 2 of hockey tryouts for my son start tonight. He wasn't selected for the AAA level team, so now it's AA. He's worked really hard to improve over the last year and I know he will do well. The only question is, "Will it matter?"

Trying to remain detached..... [:D]

Tropical depression here. [:D]

No wind to speak of in Raleigh, just some good rain, which we needed. [8D]

Tropical depression, eh? Isn't that when you realize that your Turks and Caicos trip is still MONTHS away? [;)]

ETA: Headin' to Cozumel in mid-June sans kids. Lovely, lovely, lovely. [8D]

Dont drink the water. [:-][:'(]

Make a 2 foot diameter cobbler. I'll bring some ice cream and a BIG spoon. [:D]
Ya know, that don't sound bad. Big 'ole peach cobler and a block party. Yeah !! If you come, though, it's gotta be Blue Bell ice cream;

Can't help but wonder;
How someone like Blue Bell;
Gets so many good things;
In a carton that size.

bring a BIG spoon, Bro.

Movin' to the country
Gonna eat a lot of peaches
Movin' to the country
Gonna eat a lot of peaches
Movin' to the country
Gonna eat a lot of peaches
Movin' to the country
Gonna eat a lot of peaches

Thats lyrics with a whole lot of content.

Is it possible the History Channel came up with a good program?[X(] The Hatfield's & McCoy's was pretty good last night.
Personally, I'm rootin' for the Hatfield's.[;)]

Are you related? [:'(]

Just watched a program about RAF CASEVAC flights from Afghanistan to the UK. Very heavy stuff.

T, a while back you enlightened me as to the "2/" designation on Australian units. Would you know why the AA units have the "2/" designation but are restricted to Australia?
