It's been a long time!!!

Do to some people who thought their PC personality was more important that acting like a mature adult-- I stopped writing.

I'm baaack!!!--but slightly toned down(at the wife's request)

Attention ladies--sorry your the only people who do this.

Asking for extra lemon and sugar to make lemonade?-- Really, you can't afford the $2 for a bottomless drink-I have lemonade on the menu.

Just for those of you that don't know, asking for extra lemons and sugar so you can make lemonade is WRONG!!!

1. it's not lemonade--it's lemon water with undissolved sugar

2. it's beyond cheap--it's crass(for those that don't know it means-- lacking refinement). And if your not refined enough to know this how did you get this far in life.

3. the staff is going to laugh and talk about you.

--Of course we'll give you the lemons and sugar, we know if you're going to make this request your going to make every annoying request you can think of and we're going to start laughing at you now!!!(Personally, I called a chef friend and told them to come laugh at you in person)

So to sum up--Buy the damn lemonade!!!

Humorous---here and here

April Fools?--snow in april, this sucks

Those white spots in the picture aren't dirt on the lense---it's snow on the opening day of baseball in Philadlephia.

I wish it was summer already!!!

I thought the perfect time to finally post the pictures from the latest Feast in the Fields at the 1895 Organic Farm would be while I'm watching the news on the latest round of storms approaching.

Oh, how I wish the summer was here.

How do you spend your slow time at work?

I turn into a refrigeration repairman.
