US Egg

I worked there in ‘79. I had to make a delivery to a customer in Houston. Met the guy, he dang sure wanted to project a presence. Standing proudly in his giant cowboy hat, a big belly that stretched the buttons and material to the limit of his cowboy shirt, which hung over a giant oversized belt buckle that was barely holding up his duds. Along with sharp looking boots. The total Texas package. I introduced myself, he asks where I’m from, I said New York. He then went off about “got dam Yankees” taking jobs away from our boys in Texas and he refused to take delivery. So I left. I get back to the shop, they already know. He called, said if they want his business they better not send a Yankee. They told him he’s the only delivery driver they had and that he can go elsewhere with his business but he owes them whatever the order was. I went back the next day, someone else met me, but he was there a bit away giving me the stink eye. I nodded, he walked away.

Refreshing.

Wouldn’t have got that as an average long term. Just read where the CBA is up after this season, so guessing that’s going to make for some interesting decisions for everyone looking for contracts.

His athleticism is phenomenal.

Holy Cow!!! $22 mil? …..Grisham staying put.

I switched to golden safflower recently. Getting nice results already and minimal mess. No pest birds, unless one considers Finches pests. Lots of Cardinals, Nuthatches, Tutfted T’mouse, Juncos, Woodpeckers and Blue Jays….so far.

Looked liked Brown was getting in on the act there at the end….?

It’s deeper than that:

Pheasants have all but disappeared in the area. Use to see them routinely as a kid running through small fields.

Lots of great ones, just not on the level of The Beatles or impact of Elvis.

Footnote was a poor choice of a word. It was too diminishing. Lots of room for debate. My son is big on James Brown. Guessing that’s why he bought that damn 2 ton Hammond organ, as I know Brown was big on them. …..has the Leslie spinning speaker too. He won’t tell me what he paid. It’s pretty cool, but immovable.

Best feet in pop music. MJ would agree.

When future historians are chronicling the greatness of the rock’n’roll music era, the conversation won’t get much further than The Beatles and Elvis. The Rolling Stones will be thrown in some for their bad boy reputation and longevity. I should add that Michael Jackson merits to be in the discussion too. The rest are pretty much footnotes.

Fun movie for Beatles fans imo. Kind of in that theme about the Beatles being “rediscovered”. Loaded with Beatle songs, guy does a surprisingly good job singing them. Lots of clips of him singing them on YouTube.

Workin’ in a 60’s doll reference. Nice!
