SPECIAL ANNIVERSARY EDITION


Today marks the 1st year Anniversary of Carol's ownership of the Rendon Cafe. Breakfast this morning was followed by an anniversary cake which was very good, which is in keeping with all of the vittles prepared and served in her cafe.

To celebrate this momentous occasion, and commemorate her recent plane crash (she was NOT driving the plane), some of the Wild Bunch have decided that maybe she should learn how to fly, and maybe have her own plane, so she won't be at the mercy of those airlines. There were a lot of ideas kicked around, what kind of plane should she learn in, and maybe ultimately buy? Jim and Sharon suggested a Beechcraft. Jim and Darlene said maybe a DeHaviland Otter. Curtis and Linda put two cents in for a Cessna; Wayland and Jay both thought an F-18 Hornet was the way to go, while I personally favor the SR-71 Blackbird. (If you're going to fly, fly exceptionally FAST)

I received a phone call from the space station, and wondered who would be calling me from there at that hour. Turns out the call was from Chester in Pennsylvania, and he had the call routed all over Hell's half acre and then some to keep me from getting that Pennsylvania phone number. Someone from the Cafe had notified him about the maybe plans for the plane and Carol's maybe lessons. He wasn't happy about all our recommendations for a plane. He felt that Carol deserved the very best, and I told him that's why I wanted the SR-71 Blackbird, the fastest plane in the air which can't even be shot down by a rocket, cause a rocket can't catch it.

Chester said we weren't really concerned about Carol getting shot down, but he was thinking comfort. Further discussion with Chester revealed that he was looking into the future, as Carol expands her business, builds a larger building, etc.,etc.,etc. He thinks she should learn how to fly in a 787, so when she takes a jaunt, she can take all her customers with her. When I suggested that she needs a vacation from all of us, he replied:
"She just had a week or two South of Galveston, swimming and laying in the sun on the sand getting a nice tan. What more could she want?"
