Luee

Luee
We adopted Luee from the Humane Society in 1996. He was 2 years old, but still a pup. He has slowed down a bit; his age is catching up to him. He is the best dog anyone could ever have. Luee had to be put to sleep on April 15, 2009. Rest in Peace Pup.

LET IT GO AND GOBBLE



Good Morning Guys and Dolls:

Not very much in holidays to talk about today except if you are a YO-YO fan, the American version was started in 1928. The other holiday is “LET IT GO DAY”, meaning pack up all your problems and worries and ship them off for a day. There is not much going on in Central Florida except for the heat, no rain and the Casey Anthony trial for those who are familiar with it.

June is also “TURKEY LOVERS MONTH.” I like turkey but usually on Thanksgiving Day with all the trimmings. I prefer a couple nice slices of white breast meat, mash potatoes with gravy, stuffing and not that cornbread stuff, it has to be soft made with bread and all the rest of the good stuff that goes in it. Vegetable wise is a tough one for me, string beans, pearl onions and stuffed mushrooms. Add on a little sweet potatoes and cranberry sauce and you will have made a turkey lover out of me. Now if I’m out and in the mood for an open face sandwich I would have to choose an open face roast beef sandwich over a turkey one, sorry gobble lovers. So if you are a turkey lover, have some tonight, either at a local diner that always has turkey on the menu, buy some roasted turkey lunch meat or grab a TV dinner and enjoy.

I’m going to make it a short post today, have a great day and I’ll see you tomorrow.

Hi Joe:)
My Dad would play with a yoyo toy for one of us on Christmas and could a bunch of tricks he learned as a kid, it was very entertaining:)

Joe, you have to remember the Korean General that used to do the yo-yo routine either in front of Willets, City Line or the Brunswick Bank.

He was spectacular and had any number going at the same time.

He sold the Duncan line and the Imperial was the bomb.

Skip: I don't remember the Korean General at all, what year was this?

Oh, about 4'th grade for me so that would have been 5'th or 6'th for you since you were in Bob Bugdal's class right?

1957 or 58 perhaps. He may have been from China but I thought perhaps after the Korean War was over.

I am sure he was not a real general but wore a green GI jacket with stars and a campaign hat.
