Eat the Roo

Beard and I have been very negligent with the blog.  No excuses.  Must do better.  Starting with a few things we have learned over the last few weeks. It's what you learn after you know it all that counts.  ~Attributed to Harry S Truman

-  Beard does not desire to be trimmed and restrained but is willing to accept it in an effort to assimilate into society with minimal friction.

- Kangaroo tastes delicious.   Awesome meal at Alligator Soul in Savannah, GA.  "One minute, he's bouncing happily through the outback, ears flapping, tail flopping, with not a care in the world. The next, he's heralded as the latest superfood - delicious, nutritious and fabulously low fat - the natural solution to global warming, and 20.4 million Australians are being urged to "throw a few kanga bangers on the barbie". 

- Outlaw country music is still my favorite.  Beard and I sang along for hours to pretty damn good covers of Merle Haggard, Waylon Jennings, etc. in tiny hole in the wall bar on vacation. 

- Planning group vacations is a pain in the ass.  Yes I am talking about you.

- My boy Wylie loves him some Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.  Wish they would do an episode about making daddy delicious sandwiches instead of worrying about giving Pluto a damn bubble bath.  It would be nice to see some practical applications come out of these shows.



- The Beard and I have realized that when you mention gun control people automatically go to one of the far extremes.  Not necessary.  Nobody wants to take away the .45 by your nightstand.  Calm down.  You can have better, more practical, gun control laws without infringing on the constitution.  This goes for lefties as well.  2nd amendment is a good thing.  Want to piss off a bunch of rednecks?  lace up your tevas and go and try to tell them they have to turn in their weapons.   Meet in the middle on common ground that both sides can agree on start with topics like....football, puppies, delicious sandwiches, and then move to not needing assault rifles and clips that hold 30 bullets to hunt...those type of things.

-  Born to Run is a great book
-  Mind of a Chef is a good show
-  Bobcats are a bad team
-  We hate the Patriots

Enjoy the song

Happy New Year!


 
 Thanksgiving Beard
 Urban Word of the Day
 
An unintentional beard started over the 4 day Thanksgiving weekend, where you're too lazy to shave it off monday morning. Usually continues until Christmas or New Year's Day.

Also known as a Holiday Beard
Boss: You look like you haven't shaved in days. That's unprofessional.
Employee: Sir, that's my Thanksgiving beard. It's my way of honoring our forefathers.
Boss: Oh, I didn't realize that. Maybe I'll grow one too.
 
Great beard conversation and definition courtesy of the Urban Dictionary. Fortunately, does not apply to us.
 
 
 
Happy New Year beard nation!
