Steve,
Just got back from a quick run down to my dentist to get the edges smoothed so they don't cut my lip. I have to go in wednesday morning and he said it would need a crown. This is another old tooth that has been fixed way in the past and it finally just crumbled. Darn, this soup is getting hard to chew these days.

Couldn't be that. It wasn't hot enough. We don't have to use artificial means such as peppers to make our food hot. Just set it out in the sun for about 10 minutes and then try to eat it. I do love Texas chili though but it doesn't like my stomach. I always eat it and then spend two days in the bathroom.

Amazing ... last night I chipped a front tooth. I have no idea when it broke off, but it was after eating supper, with nothing hard on the menu. It is part of a 3 tooth bridge that has been in my mouth for at least 30 years. My dentist appointment is tomorrow at 3:45. Send me any money you have left over from your bank loan, Ron. Its really tough when your teeth break off during brushing.

9 Things I Hate About Everyone
1. People who point at their wrist while asking for the time.... I know where my watch is pal, where the hell is yours? Do I point at my crotch when I ask where the toilet is?
2 People who are willing to get off their ass to search the entire room for the T.V.. remote because they refuse to walk to the T.V. and change the channel manually.
3 When people say 'Oh you just want to have your cake and eat it too'. Damn right! What good is cake if you can't eat it?
4 When people say 'it's always the last place you look'. Of course it is. Why the hell would you keep looking after you've found it? Do people do this? Who and where are they? Gonna Kick their asses!
5 When people say while watching a film 'did you see that?'. No Loser, I paid $12 to come to the cinema and stare at the damn floor.
6 People who ask 'Can I ask you a question?'.... Didn't really give me a choice there, did ya sunshine?
7. When something is 'new and improved!'. Which is it? If it's new, then there has never been anything before it. If it's an improvement, then there must have been something before it, couldn't be new.
8 When people say 'life is short'. What the hell?? Life is the longest damn thing anyone ever does!! What can you do that's longer?
9 When you are waiting for the bus and someone asks 'Has the bus come yet?'. If the bus came would I be standing here, dumb ass?

Yea, I am finding things where they cut corners. The AC earlier in the year, the trees, small things inside the house were not that big of a deal on each one, but the sum of it got annoying by the end of finding all the little issues like painting, finishing, found 1 spot where they obviously knocked a big hole in the wall and then just spackled it in enough to hide it. Touch the spot and it is soft, among other things. The guys they had come in to fix the stuff caused as much damage each time they came in, so I finally had enough. A painter got paint everywhere, had to come back to repaint again, carpet guys to replace the carpet with paint on it messed up the floor in the kitchen, the linoleum guys damaged the kitchen cabinets, the cabinet guys damaged a wall, the drywall repair had to be done 2 times, and the painter got paint on the carpet again. This got real old real quick. I raised a big stink about it and the building site manager came and personally re-did my carpet. I have not had them come back for the small things since. Just isn't worth it to me.
I dug the holes as my green thumb friend, the home depot tree lady, and the instructions on the tree said. They said the top of the root ball should not be much under the surface.

I usually answer that one with "Yes but you are limited to 1 question a day and you just used it."

OOPs,
I would say sorry Tru, but that would be too close to being PC (Politically Correct) and we don't do that on this thread.
So get over it Pal!

We had an option to put in 16 and 20 foot doors, but here, in the winter, a smaller door means less heat loss when the door is opened. So we have a 9 in the back and a 12 in front.
The two story barn has side by side 8 foot openings.
Dang it is warm today and we are processing venison ( that means more heat ).

Let's see... Ron is older than dirt.....and you're younger than dirt.
I guess being the youngest around here sure puts you a long ways from being young....
Just ask Tru.

If you remember the Original Hollywood Squares and its comics, this may bring a tear to your eyes.. These great questions and answers are from the days when ' Hollywood Squares' game show responses were spontaneous, not scripted, as they are now. Peter Marshall was the host asking the questions, of course..
Q. Do female frogs croak?
A. Paul Lynde: If you hold their little heads under water long enough.
Q. If you're going to make a parachute jump, at least how high should you be?
A. Charley Weaver: Three days of steady drinking should do it.
Q. True or False, a pea can last as long as 5,000 years.
A. George Gobel: Boy, it sure seems that way sometimes.
Q. You've been having trouble going to sleep. Are you probably a man or a woman?
A. Don Knotts: That's what's been keeping me awake.
Q. According to Cosmopolitan, if you meet a stranger at a party and you think that he is attractive, is it okay to come out and ask him if he's married?

Q. Which of your five senses tends to diminish as you get older?
A. Charley Weaver: My sense of decency.
Q. In Hawaiian, does it take more than three words to say 'I Love You'?
A. Vincent Price: No, you can say it with a pineapple and a twenty.
Q. What are 'Do It,' 'I Can Help,' and 'I Can't Get Enough'?
A. George Gobel: I don't know, but it's coming from the next apartment.
Q. As you grow older, do you tend to gesture more or les s with your hands while talking?
A. Rose Marie: You ask me one more growing old question Peter, and I'll give you a gesture you'll never forget.
Q. Paul, why do Hell's Angels wear leather?
A. Paul Lynde: Because chiffon wrinkles too easily.
Q. Charley, you've just decided to grow strawberries. Are you going to get any during the first year?
A. Charley Weaver: Of course not, I'm too busy growing strawberries.
Q. In bowling, what's a perfect score?
A. Rose Marie: Ralph, the pin boy.
Q. It is considered in bad taste to discuss two subjects at nudist camps. One is politics, what is the other?

A. Rose Marie: Unfortunately Peter, I'm always safe in the bedroom.
Q. Can boys join the Camp Fire Girls?
A. Marty Allen: Only after lights out.
Q. When you pat a dog on its head he will wag his tail. What will a goose do?
A. Paul Lynde: Make him bark?

A. Paul Lynde: Whatever it is, it would never be afraid of the dark.
Q. According to Ann Landers, is there anything wrong with getting into the habit of kissing a lot of people?
A.. Charley Weaver: It got me out of the army.
Q. It is the most abused and neglected part of your body, what is it?
A. Paul Lynde: Mine may be abused, but it certainly isn't neglected.
Q. Back in the old days, when Great Grandpa put horseradish on his head, what was he trying to do?
A. George Gobel: Get it in his mouth.
Q. Who stays pregnant for a longer period of time, your wife or your elephant?
A. Paul Lynde: Who told you about my elephant?
Q. When a couple have a baby, who is responsible for its sex?
A. Charley Weaver: I'll lend him the car, the rest is up to him.
Q. Jackie Gleason recently revealed that he firmly believes in them and has actually seen them on at least two occasions. What are they?
A. Charley Weaver: His feet.
Q. According to Ann Landers, what are two things you should never do in bed?
