Is it Winter yet?
Overcast, cold and blustery outside. Little precipitation for which I am not the least bit disappointed.
Our “Birthday” gang went to Mitchell for lunch today. Friend Jim is an instructor in the Culinary program at the Vo-Tech. His students run The Oak Room, a by-reservation-only lunch. It was nummy. I had baby beef liver smothered in sauteed onions and bacon. Sluuuuurp.
Big day for surgicals. Once again the rent is being paid by prostate.
Bored yet?
Enjoy.
- A redneck was stopped by a game warden in Gulf Coast Mississippi recently with two ice chests full of fish. He was leavin’ a cove well-known for its fishing.
- The game warden asked the man, ‘Do you have a license to catch those fish?’
- ‘Naw, sir’, replied the redneck. ‘I ain’t got none of them there licenses. You must understand, these here are my pet fish.’
- ‘Pet fish?’
- ‘Yeah. Every night, I take these here fish down to the lake and let ‘em swim ’round for awhile. Then, when I whistle, they jump right back into these here ice chests and I take ‘em home.’
- ‘That’s a bunch of hooey! Fish can’t do that.’
- The redneck looked at the warden for a moment and then said, ‘It’s the truth Mr. Government Man. I’ll show ya. It really works.’
- ‘O. K.’, said the warden. ‘I’ve got to see this!’
- The redneck poured the fish into the lake and stood and waited.
- After several minutes, the warden says, ‘Well?’
- ‘Well, what?’, says the redneck.
- The warden says, ‘When are you going to call them back?’
- ‘Call who back?’
- ‘The FISH’, replied the warden!
- ‘What fish?’, replied the redneck.

YO! It has been a beautiful fall here in East Tennessee. Some of the trees still have all of their leaves and are very beautiful. Normally, we have a killing frost and a rain that causes all the leaves to fall off, but this year has been nice. It is almost over, though. It is the second week of November and the temps are still in the 60s in the day and 40s at night. I worry about the winter that is coming up. The Amish community that is near my school is predicting a harsh winter, but I suppose that are not always right. How right can someone without electricity be? LOL!
We have the same kind of gloomy day here as well,
but the chuckle I got kind of makes things a bit brighter.
Thanks
