True story from my adventures in Alaska.
One of my best friends there was the sous chef.
He was there cooking when the pipeline was being built.
In other words a lifetime.
Here's the story he told me.
He was working in the kitchen when the phone rang.
He answered.
"We need coffee brought up to the meeting room."
"Ok it's on its way."
Now before you think any farther realize this isn't a 5 star hotel.
Big wig oil executives don't get room service there.
If they want coffee or anything else they have to get it themselves.
Well after awhile the phone rings again.
"Where's our coffee?"
"I'll have to check on it."
This went on back and forth for some time.
The executives were furious.
They wanted their coffee.
So much so they sent someone to check on it.
They showed up and asked my friend where the coffee was.
He said what coffee?
The coffee we ordered to be brought to the meeting.
We don't deliver coffee to meetings.
Well who in hell said its on its way
I have no idea I just got here.
The head chef shows up and asks what the devil was going on.
No idea I was storage getting supplies.
Sometimes myself and my supervisors and coworkers would would be walking to the cafeteria for supper.
The sous chef would pass off a brown paper bag to me as he walked by sometimes.
What the hell was that they all asked.
My order from the pantry was my reply.
One time it was about 5 pounds of dried shiitake mushrooms.

The perfect combo grill + cooler

Says the fish that has culturally appropriated the ancient practices of Egyptians....
I think the only safe costume might be some vegetable these days such as a tomato

Love the cartoon! Because too many people have lost their sense of humor (not to mention their minds), I think if I were still dressing up I'd do as I please. Just call me an equal opportunity offender.

Politics and the election got you uptight? Colace cares.

It's that time again...

​An old Rabbi was walking slowly out of a shul in New York when a gust of wind blew his hat off and down the street. Across the street, a young gentile man saw what was happening, rushed over and grabbed the hat which he then returned it to the Rabbi.

"I'm an old man and could have retrieved my hat by myself," said the Rabbi. "Thank you very much!" He then placed his hand on the man's shoulder and said, "May God bless you."

The guy thought to himself, "I've been blessed by the Rabbi, this must be my lucky day!" So off to the racetrack he went.

In the first race he noticed a horse named 'Stetson' at 20 to 1. He bet $50 and Stetson came in first. In the second race, a horse named 'Fedora' was at 30 to 1, so he bet all his money on that horse and it came in first, as well.

At the end of the day the man returned home to his wife. She asked him where he'd been. He explained about catching the Rabbi's hat, and being blessed by him, and how he then went to the track and did so well betting on horses named after hats.

The wife: "So where's the money?"

He: "I lost it all in the ninth race. I bet on a horse named 'Chateau' and it lost."

The wife: "You fool, 'Chateau' is a house, 'chapeau' is a hat!"

He: "It doesn't matter, some Japanese horse named 'Yarmulka' won."

The Gotch

I hope that everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving as much as I did

Great old time humor. Watch the whole clip.
