Hey Stan - - I think the masters are now called Czars, at least I am hearing that word a lot now. How could he have seen that far in advance to where we have now deteriorated?

Hey, no prob - - I'll drag the fiver down to the beach - - propane, generator, music, beach stuff, bathroom, fridge, stove - - the works. UUUUPPPPPssss, see below.

By Jove, I think ye might be right for once - - can you imagine the fiver if this bunch is coming in and out, going for the fridge, using the potty, cooking - - oh my gosh - - I would have to burn the thing.



On second thought I will grab a cup and hit the road and have my party in the lanai. Sure a gabby bunch today - - 4 pages in one day - - too much time on your hands - - go find something constructive to do.

Hey Hat - - man, you gotta a problem. Those white legs just gotta go - - I think the beach party is just right for you. You look anemic, boy - - get out in the that sun a bit and turn off the computer - - enjoy life - - see the sky, the sun, the birds, the fish, the bears - - BEARS???? WHERE???? OUTA HERE!!!!!!

See ya - - como esta, Stan??

You won't believe this... the young, beautiful, shapely, multi-talented wife made me an incredible dinner this evening... pan fried salmon with capers, al-dente carrots, creamy grits, and garlic texas toast... holy MOLY!!!! None of you grubbers are allowed around her!!!

Oh, the taste! She should be famous. I don't know what I do to her to deserve all that... except for my big......................
