Speak Your Mind.

You beat me to it Bro.........

then don't ever, ever watch Old Yeller.........

Guess I'm pretty much talking to myself huh? Well, that's ok. At least I understand me, well, most of the time...

I've found that this thread is only active for a few minutes once or twice a day, then it goes silent til the next day.

That's alright I am always talking to myself whilst everybody else is asleep. The good thing is I get the hot coffee and fresh donuts. It's usually a good conversation too lol.

Thank you😀

You sho’ bout dat unnerstandn’ yerself part? Ain’t you from Bama? I fer sho ain’t always sho bout what I just said whenever folks are lookin’ at me like I’m from the moon whenever I’m proudly speakin’ my rural English lol.

Is this a dessert?

It could be anything... we have it for breakfast, you can have it for dessert or lunch. Whatever you wish. But it’s best made with homemade biscuits... and chocolate puddin for the gravy.

Gravy here is salty like what you have on beef or chicken. Biscuits here are sweet so when I read biscuits and gravy I thought 'how can that be" lol.

Sausage gravy is the regular type here.

Sometimes - combining something sweet with something salty can be quite tasty!

The right amount of sweet with the right amount of salty - along with the other defining flavors of the combination - can be quite delicious.

If you are talking about pre-packaged food items from the store (as opposed to home-made-from-scratch), then - they put something sweet in just about everything these days...

It did not use to be that way - not nearly to the same extent, anyway.

But today, everything is overloaded with 'high-fructose corn syrup' and other sweet-but-unhealthy substances...

In the U.S. - in the South, at least - gravy for [breakfast] biscuits is made from the grease left over from frying bacon and/or sausage.

not when they were $100 pillows....
actually, I did when they were half off ( so $50 each......)
still backfired on me.
oh well........ if I buy a "MY PILLOW" I can actually look him in the eyes and say "You can't have this because it's MY PILLOW.... see says right there on the tag "MY PILLOW"

Yes... BUT... when he looks at it and it says "My Pillow," it's telling him it's his LOL

Wow, hundred dollar pillows??? Yikes

Well, I was looking at wayfair the other night and saw bath towels for over a hundred bucks

And lamps for 3-6 hundred dollars each What the heck?

I'd rather shop second hand

to the company or to the store?
Well, most major box stores have dropped MY PILLOW brand since he openly supports Trump and is on the "stolen election" wagon (but theres plenty about that in OTHER threads.....)

I hated that they made us watch that in Jr high (WITHOUT reading the book first )
I had a teacher who loved the story and so for about half a week we watched it and I thought "oh nice, we get to watch a movie in class without having to read it first" I had NO IDEA what it was about other than a boy and his dog. Ah man, even the tough boys in class were crying at the end.

Sorry guys and girls....I got totally buried in some research. The past week has been a nightmare requiring more research than normal. But the market tanked and I was looking for safe havens for my investments. By the end of the week I only lost a Benji...but I know guys that lost numbers in exponents of that. And for whatever reason a stock I liked has become a glamour stock (meme) and so by the end of it all I'll probably be up.

Kinda stupid stuff...but it's not a get rich quick and easy scheme that people make this out to be. It takes hours and hours of real study and research to find good stocks. And because of that research you get "lucky" occasionally. But in reality it's the hours and hours you spend to do 10 minutes of actual trading that pays. Not glamorous like the movies make it out to be. Most of us are nerds with glasses. We paid attention in the most boring classes in school. (Economics, accounting, and math).

Everyone else that does this ends up testifying before congress for pump and dump schemes and SEC violations and courtrooms as defendants in lawsuits. (As the headlines this past week demonstrates)

There's a reason why it's a line in a famous country music song...

"She didn't cry when Ol Yeller died and I won't cry when she is gone"

My wife refused to watch ol Yeller on dis+ ...(she's 17 years younger than me and doesn't really understand the movie)

Most people don't understand that movie because most people have never been in situations like that where you have a job needing done that seems overwhelming...but there's nothing to do but do it anyway. Life and death struggle there. And then the one helping hand you had... you have to kill. It would break anyone's heart.

It always does... especially if you have been there and done that it any measure. Which is why I really love some of the seemingly flattest stories in scriptures...when I finally figured out what is being said...and why I always want to scream and shout. Caleb's story and Elijah's story are two of my favorites. I get their passion, heartbreak, and triumph.

I believe it!

HAHAHAHA

(You always seem nice to talk to - so, why not - when you are talking to yourself?)

Do you use your hands a lot when you talk?
