  1. Woman: Do you drink beer? Man: Yes Woman: How many beers a day? Man: Usually about 3 Woman: How much do you pay per beer? Man: £5.00 which includes a tip Woman: And how long have you been drinking? Man: About 20 years, I suppose Woman: So, a beer costs £5 and you have 3 beers a day which puts your spending each month at £450. In one year, it would be approximately £5,400, correct? Man: Correct Woman: If in 1 year you spend £5400, not accounting for inflation, the past 20 years puts your spending at £108,000, correct? Man: Correct Woman: Do you know that if you didn't drink so much beer, that money could have been put in a step-up interest savings account and after accounting for compound interest for the past 20 years, you could have now bought a Jaguar? Man: Do you drink beer? Woman: No Man: Where's your Jaguar?
  2. Sorry Seems to be the Hardest Word - Elton John (most utube plays ok - u just picked one that had a copyright protection)
  3. Blues Stay Away From Me - Doc Watson (Poppy - beautiful song by Alison Krauss - unfortunately the attachment was blocked in the U.S.) (btw, Alison Krauss has won more grammy awards than any other female )
  4. My GD will return home this Friday. She was a counselor again for the summer this year at a girls camp. She also taught swimming to the girls. Once again Malia and Sasha Obama attended the camp. I haven't talked with my GD for a while but will probably talk with her when she gets home. Our son told us today that it was 96 degrees in Florida and he worked outside in the heat, luckily his job is in the shade. He said that he was drenched by the end of the day.
  5. One of my Faron Young favorites...... "Alone With You".

    Cars

    I really like the Tesla. However, I would rather have owned stock in Tesla 52 weeks ago and still own it. 52 weeks ago the stock was $26 a share , today it is going for $153 a share. Quite an increase in value. An investment of $50,000 would be worth $294,230 today. Quite a gain in 52 weeks.
  7. Tuesday evening we went to a restaurant that we had not been to previously. We were both very pleased with the meal. I had a seafood gumbo comprised of scallops, shrimp, crab, and a little sausage over red beans and rice. The dish was well prepared and the seasonings were perfect. Needless to say we will put this restaurant on our "visit often" list. My wife had the seafood risotto and she said it was prepared perfectly. http://www.southernrootsfoods.com/images/dinnermenu.pdf
  8. Not my type of book. But I complement you on writing a good review.
  9. Orange Blossom Special - Mark O'Connor (great fiddle and some harmonica playing)
  10. I will have to put it on my list. Your recommendations are usually pretty good.
