August 6, 201311 yr comment_1260300 Hey, thanks! We are in elite company, us oldsters. We can't bust heads like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to tell 'em stories that don't go anywhere - like the time I caught the ferry over to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for my shoe, so, I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on 'em. Give me five bees for a quarter, you'd say. Now where were we? Oh yeah: the important thing was I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time. They didn't have white onions because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones...

Looks like everyone that has had a birthday makes me think I better bring more than a couple bottles of Willett's to opening day. Come on down and grab yourself some of the finest bourbon Kentucky offers. Happy Birthday. Your AARP card is in the mail.... :rsju31uh9:
August 6, 201311 yr comment_1260415 Ha ha, thanks guys. Lots of August birthdays in my family. Mine is today, my youngest son's is Thursday and my Mom's is Friday. My mom is turning 70 so it's a milestone birthday for her. We always gather at my folks house to celebrate all three.

August 8, 201311 yr comment_1260856 Can you post that picture of you with the giant sword from whatever ren-fair or Renaissance festival you were at when it was taken? That would be a great present! I imagine you with all your smoking and BBQ threads skewering a large animal with that damn thing and hurling it onto the grill with the sword. It makes me happy. :lol:
