    What a good babysitter Laylah is lol
  3. My grandson graduated from High School May 25th. Here are two pictures we took in my backyard just before he headed off to the ceremony
  4. This is a combination of several recipes and the result of a lot of experimentation to match my taste lol Use gold yukon or the small red potatoes. They are waxy and will hold together better. 2 lbs. med. potatoes, un-pared 2 tbsp. salad oil 2 1/2 tbsp. cider vinegar 1 tbsp. parsley, chopped 2 tbsp. onion, finely chopped 1/4 c. green pepper, finely chopped 3/4 c. celery, diced 3/4 c. Hellmann's mayonnaise Salt & pepper 1 tsp. dill weed Scrub potatoes and cook until tender. Drain, peel and cut up. Combine all ingredients and refrigerate several hours (or overnight) before serving. ---------------- What I do is boil the potatoes until they are cooked, but still firm. Otherwise, you end up making mashed potato salad. While the potatoes are cooking, mix all the other ingredients and refrigerate. When the potatoes are done, take them out and let them cool. When they are cool, peel them. To avoid mashing them when you mix them, cut them into 1/4 inch slices. Spread a thin layer of the dressing you made earlier in the bottom of a bowl. Spread a single layer of cut potatoes. Lightly cover that layer with the dressing you made earlier. Add another layer of potatoes, and lightly cover that with dressing. Continue doing that until you have run out of potatoes or dressing. You have to spread the dressing thinly or you won't have enough. Carefully toss the salad once or twice, but don't mash them, and then refrigerate. It tastes best when it's cold (overnight in the fridge).
  5. lol, I have not had a minute of free time to test. I'll eventually test it, unless someone beats me to it.
  6. Here is an xray of the plate the Dr put in. lol when my grandson (age 5) saw it, he said in a hushed voice, "papa has a bug in his shoulder"

    Old timers humor

    A young man at this construction site was bragging that he could outdo anyone based on his strength. He especially made fun of one of the older workman. After several minutes, the older worker had enough. "Why don't you put your money where you mouth is?" he said. "I'll bet a week's wages that I can haul something in a wheelbarrow over to the other building that you won't be able to wheel back." "You're on, old man," the young man replied. "Let's see what you've got." The old man reached out and grabbed the wheelbarrow by the handles. Then nodding to the young man, he said with a smile, "All right. Get in."
  13. I think it's great he heard about us discussing his story. I wonder how many of us read the log to see what we said about it lol This sentence from his email: "In that story, there would be a happy ending. And a surprise one, too!-- I hope." got me wondering just who be happy, a Petting Zoo visitor or some well fed spider family.
  14. Thanks for the post, Dabrownhammer

    Computers

    A Spanish teacher was explaining to her class that in Spanish, unlike English, nouns are designated as either masculine or feminine. "House" for instance, is feminine: "la casa." "Pencil," however, is masculine: "el lapiz." A student asked, "What gender is 'computer'?" Instead of giving the answer, the teacher split the class into two groups, male and female, and asked them to decide for themselves whether "computer" should be a masculine or a feminine noun. Each group was asked to give four reasons for its recommendation. The men's group decided that "computer" should definitely be of the feminine gender ("la computadora") because: 1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic. 2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else. 3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long term memory for possible later retrieval; and 4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending half your paycheck on accessories for it. (THIS GETS BETTER!) The women's group, however, concluded that computers should be masculine ("el computador") because: 1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on. 2. They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves. 3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time, they ARE the problem; and 4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had waited a little longer, you could have gotten a better model. The women won.
  16. I fell out of my bed early Friday morning and broke my clavicle. I see the orthopedist tomorrow (Monday). I am posting the xray and Star's suggestion about how I should dress from now on

    Fishing

    Having arrived at the edge of the river, the fisherman soon realized he had forgotten to bring any bait. Just then he happened to see a little snake passing by who had caught a worm. The fisherman snatched up the snake and robbed him of his worm. Feeling sorry for the little snake with no lunch, he snatched him up again and poured a little beer down his throat. Then he went about his fishing. An hour or so later the fisherman felt a tug at his pant leg. Looking down, he saw the same snake with three more worms in his mouth...
