Happy Oktoberfest, Happy Thanksgiving to all! PROST!
I have 3 bags of my salty Bavarian pretzels arriving here today and more than plenty of beir and foods! Hey Alm! When do we officially start this thing up?

~ Do you ever do your trimming or cutting of your hair yourself at home...in the mirror, backwards?

~ Can you manage to trim your eyebrows with a scissor while looking into a mirror? It's almost impossible! LOL!

~ Could you fit a piano in your home somehow? Even if it's in your way a bit, I don't mind at all!

~ Have you ever lived or stayed anywhere that you could go fishing through your bedroom window? You don't know what
you're missing! It wakes you up at night when you get a big one!

~ Speaking of Doughnuts...when's the last kind of doughnut you have had? What kind? Huh? What kind was it?

~ Did anyone here ever figure out if all the good restaurants are closing up shop forever or is it something else?

~ I know when someone tells me Almrausch ate at this Horton guys restaurant I'm not gonna believe it...cause it ain't true!

~ SO...we're going to have some sausages to eat this month and yes it's gonna happen but the thing is I don't where in
the heck I'm gonna find them?! And buns? Your not fitting one of big ass German style sausages on one of those
little supermarket buns! Loaded up with onions and all that stuff you need!

~ I need to calm down...I'm all excited here and it's 5:49 in the morning! It's still dark outside! I'm all by myself cause Kitty just walked by the place where I'm sitting, he meowed and kept walking.

So, Fryday. What's going on for you today? Anything or everything? I have so much to do that I can't do it all. It's not possible!

~ Did you ever get to see Eddie Murphy? On stage or in a movie? Wow, that guy had it all going great! Funny stuff!

~ Things that you eat and drink at the hockey game?

~ When watching the hockey game, who first told you what the hell they're talking about when they call, 'Icing!'?

**** Have a great Fryday every one of you, you're the sweetest people anywhere!

~ Do you ever do your trimming or cutting of your hair yourself at home...in the mirror, backwards? - Never. I can afford a professional cut once every 6-7 weeks or so...

~ Can you manage to trim your eyebrows with a scissor while looking into a mirror? It's almost impossible! LOL! - I get my eyebrows done too, $10.00 at a nail salon I frequent. Unlike most today I am big on grooming, I do it for myself.

~ Could you fit a piano in your home somehow? Even if it's in your way a bit, I don't mind at all! - No room here.

~ Have you ever lived or stayed anywhere that you could go fishing through your bedroom window? You don't know what you're missing! It wakes you up at night when you get a big one! - Pass, not my thing.

~ Speaking of Doughnuts...when's the last kind of doughnut you have had? What kind? Huh? What kind was it? - Chocolate glazed. I don't make a habit of it.

~ Did anyone here ever figure out if all the good restaurants are closing up shop forever or is it something else? - Rarely a patron.

~ I know when someone tells me Almrausch ate at this Horton guys restaurant I'm not gonna believe it...cause it ain't true!

~ SO...we're going to have some sausages to eat this month and yes it's gonna happen but the thing is I don't where in the heck I'm gonna find them?! And buns? Your not fitting one of big ass German style sausages on one of those little supermarket buns! Loaded up with onions and all that stuff you need! - Not for me!

~ I need to calm down...I'm all excited here and it's 5:49 in the morning! It's still dark outside! I'm all by myself cause Kitty just walked by the place where I'm sitting, he meowed and kept walking.

So, Fryday. What's going on for you today? Anything or everything? I have so much to do that I can't do it all. It's not possible! - Working. It should be less hectic than yesterday was...

~ Did you ever get to see Eddie Murphy? On stage or in a movie? Wow, that guy had it all going great! Funny stuff! - Pass.

~ Things that you eat and drink at the hockey game? - When I used to go nothing except sometimes a bottle of water. I haven't been in almost 10 years. Money ruined professional sports for me...

Fighting is a big turnoff.

~ When watching the hockey game, who first told you what the hell they're talking about when they call, 'Icing!'? - I know the game very well. The first time I ever went I went alone, way back in the mid-1970s. I pretty much figured everything out in a short time.

**** Have a great Fryday every one of you, you're the sweetest people anywhere!

used to. My hair has stopped growing so no need now.


~ Can you manage to trim your eyebrows with a scissor while looking into a mirror? It's almost impossible! LOL!
never have trimmed them at all.


~ Could you fit a piano in your home somehow? Even if it's in your way a bit, I don't mind at all!

a little spinet would fit nicely but nobody here to play it.

~ Have you ever lived or stayed anywhere that you could go fishing through your bedroom window? You don't know what
you're missing! It wakes you up at night when you get a big one!
no but sounds nice.


~ Speaking of Doughnuts...when's the last kind of doughnut you have had? What kind? Huh? What kind was it?
been so long I don't remember. Probably a kruller (aka tractor tire) cuz they were my favorite.


~ Did anyone here ever figure out if all the good restaurants are closing up shop forever or is it something else?
I imagine the really good ones will hold out. The little mom pop real home cooking ones are disappearing way too fast.


~ I know when someone tells me Almrausch ate at this Horton guys restaurant I'm not gonna believe it...cause it ain't true!

~ SO...we're going to have some sausages to eat this month and yes it's gonna happen but the thing is I don't where in

pass. Too greasy.


~ I need to calm down...I'm all excited here and it's 5:49 in the morning! It's still dark outside! I'm all by myself cause Kitty just walked by the place where I'm sitting, he meowed and kept walking.
can't imagine being that excited so early in the morning.


So, Fryday. What's going on for you today? Anything or everything? I have so much to do that I can't do it all. It's not possible!
haven't decided yet. I know a trip to the PO is a must-do, and to walmart for cat food. I'm almost out of His Highness Pest's favorite.


~ Did you ever get to see Eddie Murphy? On stage or in a movie? Wow, that guy had it all going great! Funny stuff!
only thing I've seen him in is Beverly Hills Cop. I liked the movie.


~ Things that you eat and drink at the hockey game?
Hockey-let's see. I think that's the on e they use sticks on a little gizmo to try to get it in a net. If they fail they use the sticks on other players.

I don't watch many sports and hockey in one of them.


~ When watching the hockey game, who first told you what the hell they're talking about when they call, 'Icing!'?
I know what icing it-the stuff you put on a cake! and if nobody's looking you lick the bowl out.


**** Have a great Fryday every one of you, you're the sweetest people anywhere!
Thanks, roosty.

have a great day, all

I have 3 bags of my salty Bavarian pretzels arriving here today and more than plenty of beir and foods! Hey Alm! When do we officially start this thing up?

~ Do you ever do your trimming or cutting of your hair yourself at home...in the mirror, backwards?

Always.Trimming, cutting, coloring, fancy hairdo... I do it better than a Beauty Shop

~ Can you manage to trim your eyebrows with a scissor while looking into a mirror? It's almost impossible! LOL!

Why?

~ Could you fit a piano in your home somehow? Even if it's in your way a bit, I don't mind at all!

It fits




~ Have you ever lived or stayed anywhere that you could go fishing through your bedroom window? You don't know what
you're missing! It wakes you up at night when you get a big one!

Not that close, but I live on a beach, so fishing possibilities are just few feet away

~ Speaking of Doughnuts...when's the last kind of doughnut you have had? What kind? Huh? What kind was it?

I don't remember. It was decades ago.

~ Did anyone here ever figure out if all the good restaurants are closing up shop forever or is it something else?

Some just didn't survive COVID

~ I know when someone tells me Almrausch ate at this Horton guys restaurant I'm not gonna believe it...cause it ain't true!

Not possible?

~ SO...we're going to have some sausages to eat this month and yes it's gonna happen but the thing is I don't where in
the heck I'm gonna find them?! And buns? Your not fitting one of big ass German style sausages on one of those
little supermarket buns! Loaded up with onions and all that stuff you need!

No German or European food store in your location? You could fit them on a baguette

~ I need to calm down...I'm all excited here and it's 5:49 in the morning! It's still dark outside! I'm all by myself cause Kitty just walked by the place where I'm sitting, he meowed and kept walking.

A little excitement is a good start of a day.

So, Fryday. What's going on for you today? Anything or everything? I have so much to do that I can't do it all. It's not possible!

Right now waiting for delivery of a home ladder l purchased yesterday. Later will do little weekend shopping and go for a walk. The weather is gorgeous here!

~ Did you ever get to see Eddie Murphy? On stage or in a movie? Wow, that guy had it all going great! Funny stuff!

In a movie, many years ago. Don't remember the title.

~ Things that you eat and drink at the hockey game?

I watch hockey games at home, but I don't really snack between meals. Perhaps a fruit bowl?

~ When watching the hockey game, who first told you what the hell they're talking about when they call, 'Icing!'?

I read about the rules long time ago. Without knowing the rules watching it would be kinda pointless?

**** Have a great Fryday every one of you, you're the sweetest people anywhere!

You too, roosty!
Have an exciting weekend!!

Happy Oktoberfest, Happy Thanksgiving to all! PROST!

I have 3 bags of my salty Bavarian pretzels arriving here today and more than plenty of beir and foods! Hey Alm! When do we officially start this thing up?

~ Do you ever do your trimming or cutting of your hair yourself at home...in the mirror, backwards?
No

~ Have you ever lived or stayed anywhere that you could go fishing through your bedroom window? You don't know what you're missing! It wakes you up at night when you get a big one! Never did that.

~ Speaking of Doughnuts...when's the last kind of doughnut you have had? What kind? Huh? What kind was it? Raspberry filled about 3 weeks ago.

~ Did anyone here ever figure out if all the good restaurants are closing up shop forever or is it something else? We didn't have many good ones to start with and the last one that came in is way too upscale for this town.

~ I know when someone tells me Almrausch ate at this Horton guys restaurant I'm not gonna believe it...cause it ain't true! Tim Horton's is a chain all over Canada, isn't it? I think there are some in the Northeast, here in the US, too,

~ SO...we're going to have some sausages to eat this month and yes it's gonna happen but the thing is I don't where in the heck I'm gonna find them?! And buns? Your not fitting one of big ass German style sausages on one of those little supermarket buns! Loaded up with onions and all that stuff you need!

So, Fryday. What's going on for you today? Anything or everything? I have so much to do that I can't do it all. It's not possible! I'm on my way out to take photos as soon as it's daylight which is closer to 8:00A. I was out yesterday and can you believe in freakin' October, I got my first Tennessee mosquito bite of 2023 on my finger and it's itching like all get out right now.

~ Did you ever get to see Eddie Murphy? On stage or in a movie? Wow, that guy had it all going great! Funny stuff! SNL and Beverly Hills Cop. Not much of a movie comedy fan but I like him.

~ Things that you eat and drink at the hockey game? Same stuff you would eat at a baseball game.

~ When watching the hockey game, who first told you what the hell they're talking about when they call, 'Icing!'? We had an Eastern Hockey League team (before we had the NY Islanders NHL team), that my dad used to take me to see in the 1960s called The Long Island Ducks. Their team used to play in a town not far from where I lived when I was growing up. Lots of brawling. It was fun. Anything I didn't pick up there, I learned from watching NY Islander games on TV and in person about 10 - 15 years later.

~ Do you ever do your trimming or cutting of your hair yourself at home...in the mirror, backwards? Did a couple of years ago (number 4 all over).

~ Can you manage to trim your eyebrows with a scissor while looking into a mirror? It's almost impossible! LOL! Pass, it's bad enough with the mirror.

~ Could you fit a piano in your home somehow? Even if it's in your way a bit, I don't mind at all! Not a chance. On the second floor and both fron and exit door have railings in front of them.

~ Have you ever lived or stayed anywhere that you could go fishing through your bedroom window? You don't know what
you're missing! It wakes you up at night when you get a big one! Stayed at a house in Galveston with a fishing deck on the second floor, but you could also go out onto the roof and fish from there.

~ Speaking of Doughnuts...when's the last kind of doughnut you have had? What kind? Huh? What kind was it? Umm, the sugar donuts with Nutella filling. Can't remember the name, but it's either Korean or Chinese.

~ Did anyone here ever figure out if all the good restaurants are closing up shop forever or is it something else? Sort of. To much competition from the big chains.

So, Fryday. What's going on for you today? Anything or everything? I have so much to do that I can't do it all. It's not possible! Work, work all week long. Maybe a bike ride.

~ Did you ever get to see Eddie Murphy? On stage or in a movie? Wow, that guy had it all going great! Funny stuff! Plenty of movies.

~ Things that you eat and drink at the hockey game? Hot dog and whatever drink is cheapest.

~ When watching the hockey game, who first told you what the hell they're talking about when they call, 'Icing!'? The internet.

Yes, on a Cabin Party Fishing Boat, many years ago.

I have things under control. Homecoming Parade comes by here tonight, and the party is on my front porch. I'm leaving here soon to buy seasonal napkins, plates, cups etc. Then I'm baking some more cookies, and around 4 p.m. I'll order 4 large cheese pizzas and 4 pepperoni pizzas from Grotto Pizza. But first, I have some housekeeping chores to take care of. Porch is all decorated with orange lights and 8 big pots of mums, and I'm going to our local fruit farm before noon to buy a few large bags of fresh popped caramel corn. Drinks are cooling in the fridge. Parade starts at 6 p.m. All are Welcome !!!!

~ Did you ever get to see Eddie Murphy? On stage or in a movie? Wow, that guy had it all going great! Funny stuff! I know a lot of people like him. I really don't.

~ Things that you eat and drink at the hockey game? Ice Hockey or Field Hockey? I only go to Field Hockey games at our high school. I don't eat while I'm there.

Thanks, Roosty.
