![]() Every time I hear my stylist friend say ANYTHING about animals, I think HOWLINGLY laughing about the pig girl show I saw when she lived in London and I visited her Ah hell if you are gonna make money offa anything, these are the types of people to make money offa .... Volunteer your time for the puppies. And spend your extra pennies on em, that way the iceboxes you work for are really paying for the puppies WOW!!! It is right and so people should take risks. Will persons try to be an accounting type guy. Or are they changing professions as well As I said above. Use the fanny floss money for good. Jobs don't have to be meaningful. It's after 9-5 that has to be meaningful. If 9-5 is meaningful as well, you are really lucky. But what you do in your own spare time is what REALLY defines you. 9-5 is only survival. Just went to Riverdance With the mom of the lady of London. Her former clerk, a big redneck loud mouth got arrested for coke. In a huge bust. They netted 82 people. I guess coke has replaced the moonlight still trade. So we go to a pre Riverdance dinner and we are sitting with the most morbidly middle class white people you have ever seen. They say: Yeah Franklin County is lovely. This is where we decided to retire. It is nice and quiet a lot of retirees. But there are few natives left. So me and the mom chime in almost instantaneously: Yeah COS THEY ALL GOT ARRESTED. We think this is the most knee slapping humor in the world. But we get these cold stares. And this goes on all night as we do this really great Franklin COunty routine. Dag. That mom is SO BAD!!! lots of local color The Roanoke theater restaurant (I forget the trade name_ was really good that year. Even though the meals were usually a carving board roast beef or something like this, and a simple soup, and a fairly traditional salad bar, they distinguished themselves with endless boiled shrimp all you can eat. These were always large and sweet and tender. The desserts were also plentiful, creative, and even I liked them. Usually at least one decent cheesecake and one decent cake such as black forrest. This year, they are not as good. The shrimp is no longer buffet style and the entree gets more and more prosaic. You get a typical cocktail serving of shrimp. Still the best part of the meal for me. The fish is served buffet style and is never anything but overcooked. The meat entree is also usually quite weird. This last time, they made egyptian chicken. The chicken tasted like pork. Also inedible. But the sauce was good. Tons of onions and garlic with cumin and coriander, marinate the meat and then cook. I ladled several spoonfuls of the stuff over corn, which wasn't great but it was ok. -- "The choice of which viewpoint you hold as a priority is Yours. In my experience this differentiation of 'priority viewpoint and location', is what I have come to earth to learn, in all of its nuances. "--Phillip Smith |
