TRUE ???? # 14

A while back, the menu board was offering O rings. There was no size or price listed, and no clue as to whether they were for an automobile, tractor, bathtub or what. They must not have sold well, as they were replaced on the board with onion rings, which I'm quite sure were tastier, and not nearly as chewy.

Curtis took some corn to his deer lease and his trail cam took pictures of a nice 8 pointer fighting off a couple of rather large grasshoppers. The deer actually only got a couple of bites of corn before that horde/herd of gigantic hoppers came in and drove it off. Curtis tried the next day to get a shot at a big solid pink grasshopper, but his scope fogged up because of the humidity. I believe him about the grasshoppers, but I ain't sure about that much humidity.

Charlie assured me that his being on the school board for 71 years had absolutely nothing to do with him getting a school named after him. Robert said he believes, but can't prove, that the school board actually has a loooong list of names, and every so often picks the next name on the list to name a school after. Charlie named himself with a name from the list, but his timing was off, as Charlie's name was supposed to have been picked in 1947.

Carol had a senior moment the other day and was referring to the fellow she was talking to as Heronymous, but his name is Jerry. She was having some difficulty getting into the swing of waitressing since she has been cooking for so long. Rex, Harry, Curtis and I signed her up for waitress boot camp, and after only two days she was back waitressing with the best of them.

All ya'll that don't come into the cafe for dinner may not  have met David, the new night cook. He was taking his AR-15 to get some practice today, so we may get some wild game on the menu. Since Curtis won't shoot any of those grasshoppers, I'm going to suggest he tell David where his deer lease is.

Donna has not said this, but I think she might be ready to suggest to her dart team that they might want to take up skydiving, or some similar sport that doesn't involve darts. I can recommend sacking rattlesnakes.
