An oldie but goodie ...
The IRS decides to audit Grandpa, and summons him to the IRS office. The auditor was not surprised when Grandpa showed up with his attorney. The auditor said, "Well, sir, you have an extravagant lifestyle and no full-time employment, which you explain by saying that you win money gambling. I'm not sure the IRS finds that believable."
"I'm a great gambler, and I can prove it," says Grandpa. "How about a demonstration?" The auditor thinks for a moment and said, "Okay. Go ahead."
Grandpa says, "I'll bet you a thousand dollars that I can bite my own eye."
The auditor thinks a moment and says, "It's a bet."
Grandpa removes his glass eye and bites it. The auditor's jaw drops.
Grandpa says, "Now, I'll bet you two thousand dollars that I can bite my other eye."
Now the auditor can tell Grandpa isn't blind, so he takes the bet. Grandpa removes his dentures and bites his good eye.
The stunned auditor now realizes he has wagered and lost three grand, with Grandpa's attorney as a witness. He starts to get nervous.
"Want to go double or nothing?" Grandpa asks. "I'll bet you six thousand dollars that I can stand on one side of your desk, and pee into that wastebasket on the other side, and never get a drop anywhere in between."
The auditor, twice burned, is cautious now, but he looks carefully and decides there's no way this old guy could possibly manage that stunt, so he agrees again.
Grandpa stands beside the desk and unzips his pants, but although he strains mightily, he can't make the stream reach the wastebasket on the other side, so he ends up urinating all over the auditor's desk. The auditor leaps with joy, realizing that he has just turned a major loss into a huge win. But Grandpa's own attorney moans and puts his head in his hands.
"Are you okay?" the auditor asks.
"Not really," says the attorney. "This morning, when Grandpa told me he'd been summoned for an audit, he bet me twenty-five thousand dollars that he could come in here and pee all over your desk and that you'd be happy about it!"

Good Have A LAFF Tuesday Evenin HOG!!!! Gettin in late as I had a funeral I had to go to this afternoon. It was an old fashion funeral so it was much like goin to a church service. It was long!!!! By the time I got home it was time to start fixin dinner. It has been a long day. The funeral was the mother of a girl I dated back in HS. We got back together a few yrs later. Her mom was a great person and definatly kept me on my toes when it came to her daughter. I was also good friends with her brother as well. Ended up when we moved out here he lived down the street. We used ot have a good time hangin out till his wife went crazy and dumped him. He is all better now and has his life on track. His sister is married to a lawyer in Norway Sweden. We try to get together every so ofeten when she is in town!!! Loonier - Good old classic one!!! Midnight - Nice of ya to keep us supplied in food and beverages!!!
Off to relax before hittin the sack!!!

Happy Hump Day HOG!!!! I just got off the phone with the GB team. It was mostly a survey type of questioning. They were looking as to what type of products to add to the app. I did let them know that a lot of folks do only the desktop posting and not the app. I told them them I would hate to see them alienate those folks. I also said that app are more of a younger generation deal and they move from app to app as the wind changes. I would hate to see GB die for that reason. Once the survey was over we talked more about the elimination of the forums. Seem a lot of folks have brought that up. I said a lot of folks hit the forums not for points but for relationships like a family place. She said she had gotten a lot of that type of comments. I also said that adding stations was impossible to do on the app. I have tried to add 3 new stations for 5 mos now and they haven't been added yet. She said she's heard a lot of folks have made that comment as well. I also said changin the name or gas afil took forever and an email to the meds to get it straightened out. Another suggestions I offered was to show the station name as well as the gas afil. We have several 7-11 stores that either sell Exxon, Mobile, or Chevron. Also we have some mom and pop type stations who ya can't see the name but ya can see the gas brand. Ya should be able to see both on the app. All in All she acted like she was willing to pass on that info even thought that was not what the call was about. Hopefully all the people she talks to will express their views and they will be actually heard. Only time will see if this is the demise of the GB site. Midnight - Thx for the breakfast pickles!!! Off to get to cleanin!!! Catch Ya L8TR HOG!!!!

Hello HOG! Thought everyone knew about the 100 pts for posting on a GB news article. That way all can get the max pts per day. Unless one has those apps. Did some work in the bath. Got an email from HD saying the delivery is going to be two days late. Oh well. Opening a pint of ale. Want mine ice cold at the end of the day. You want one too?! Pours almost-clear copper with nearly zero head, just an off-white right. Nice color though. Aroma is slightly malty and just a hint of earthy hop. Flavor is a whole different bag...Hence the name Double Bag. Delicious waves of malty goodness bread/cracker mixed with a nice dose of caramel. Very slight earthy bitter catches up at the finish, leaving the palate very clean and ready for a another sip. Yes, Delicious!
