Baseball Beds

When looking at the Boston team of Baseball I wonder if the yankess stay at a Massachusetts bed and breakfast when they are there.

I would imaagine that the yankess get what ever they want. When they want and how they want. I wonder how much something like that costs the yankess. I wonder if the players like hard beds or soft beds. Does the bed really make a differnce for hitters.

MY Kitty Cat

Bad news. My cat needed a Hair Transplant so I did not know what to know. We have a really good Chinese restaurant down the street and round the corner from us. The owner said she would love our cat. Well my cat went in and well. She had some issues with playing with food.

And well I just wrote this to be funny. I did not take my cat to the Chinese restaurant.

More thoughts on that

When putting on a restaurant one needs to have as many marketing items as needed. I have always liked marketing pens as a way of promotion.

the nice thing about them is that they go around and around and around. Hopefully they will move to many differing people and provide much in the way of marketing.

Have a most happy day.

Another Day

Today at the eating area they had to install some IBM memory so the computer will run right.

The new upgrades are taking so much extra, that I had to pop for ram. Would be nice to have prices go do. Or an upgrade be easy.

Still it is part of doing business.

Well have a most happy day.

The Count

Now a place where one goes has some serious fixed asset accounting needs. I know when I was in the service, that we would have ccounting and every single thing had to be accounted for. There were reams of dead trees hanging around in giant folders. All saying count me!

Have a most happy day.

Fond Memories

One time while staying a Condo Hotels in California, I went to a restraunt that is now defeunct.

You may recall Maxwells that was next to the pier. This place has some nice mmeories. I first had the popovers there at a brunch. It is also the place I proposed. That was an odd experiance.

just as I popped the question the waitress came up and I dropped the ring.

Well maybe I should forget that one.

Have a good day.

Lobsters

How do you get lobsters in to the transfer tank at a restraunt. I was thinking that is not a job I would want.

Imagine all the lobsters begging to put you in there. I just do not think it would be fun.

I am not really into picking out my food before eating. I like the idea that we have anonymous relationship. The thought of naming your food is a little gross.

An Observation

One of the odd things about the restaurant biz is that it is a regular business. Yet we never see the telecom audit going on or the accounting or all the little parts of day to day operations.

When you think about it, a good restaurant is like a little trip to Fantasy Island. We have people waiting on you hand and foot. the world out there is forgotten, no work just luxury

I just thought that was a weird observation.

More Food

So there I am in something like a Disney vacation home thinking about food.

So what else is new. There are simple places that are nice to eat at. Like country kitchen. This is a place that is usually good and simple.

There are so many times when simple is good. Let's be real one cannot eat at a fancy retraunt every single day. Though I would like to give that a try.

The expense would just kill me. Way to much money.

Have a happy day.

Bad Customers

As I write this I am eating at small diner.

The family, okay grandparents and grandkids, should be shipped to some Las Vegas Real Estate and out of here. I am a little put out.

It has been awhile since I heard someone this mean. I really want to slap him. I feel really bad for the kids. I see the sadness in the faces.

If you are a mean person please do not eat out. It ruins my dinner. And I like to eat out not listen to you get upset for no reason.

So please.

A Great Laugh

I was eating at a restaraunt recently in South dakota on i-90. I saw the funniest sign.

A person who was selling Funeral Insurance was advertising on bench in front of the restaraunt. I am not to sure what this means. But it was funny.

As I ate, I could not stop thinking about it. And looking at the food. The good news is that I am still alive at this point.


I am sure it is just a cooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo


(note from ER staff: He's dead Jim)

Have a happy day

More Food

One I item I have noticed is that eating out of the home today seems to require a payday loan just to pay for the bill. We went to a decent steakhouse last week and . . . OMG (gosh) the prices were outragoues.

How can they afford this highway robbery. Well it really is isn't as I am going out of my own free will and I could go somewhere else, but still. The price were way to high. I do not know why the sticker shock hit me. But it did.

Whatever, ever happened to good food at a reasonable price? Where you could feed a family well for $30. I am not sure . . . I think those days are gone like the wind.

Fish Fry Anyone

you know what else is great about summer? fishing. There is nothing like grabbing the old fishing tackle and mosey down to the river and lake and start fishing.

The best part comes in the evening though. Just as the minnesota state bird comes out for dinner, cooking your fish over an open fire. Any person can take the fish back home and start frying them.

Frying the fish over the open fire while camping is always a good thing.


Have a good day.

For FUn

I am thing about going online to buy world series tickets. Why would I do that? Simple the while area lights up with fans and food. If you want great food and fun . . . take yourself and your car with kids and dogs and go to a major sporting event. There is nothing like having some fun at a super sporting event.

Well maybe there are some things that come to mind. However, nothing that you can do with your clothes on.

In any case, have a most happy day. And keep those shirts on in 20 degree weather.
