Uncle John: ...keeping it simple and avoiding exercise.

Comment by Uncle John on December 8, 2012 at 4:27am

Ha.  Like Wes's comment.   The secret to enjoying Christmas for me is keeping it simple and avoiding excess.   Linda picks a gift.  My mom loves a gift certificate to the HyVee grocery.   Two son's family get a check and use it as they see fit with the stipulation that each grandkid (4) son and daughter in law get something from grandma and grandpa B.

 

Both sons called last week and expressed honest appreciation..  I hope they can do the same for their kids and grandkids.

Will help the local needy a bit.  I have one shirt picked out from Bass Pro for me and I ask the kids not to get me something.

Linda and I are not even close to wealthy, but we have everything we need and much of what we want.  Much to be thankful for.

Shit.   Hope you won't take my curmudgeon status.  I'm still an old fart who resists change.

My Gramps worked for the Hamms Brewing Co. in St. Paul  for over 40 years. He retired as their workforce labor union rep. He drank it room temp. and always from the bottle. The original recipe Hamms was a pretty good beer actually.

I'm only a "mostly first generation Southern Californian". My folks moved here when I was five, (in 1951), so I'm almost a native. For all of the idiots here, it's still home to me. The interesting thing is hearing friends who moved out of state to places like Arizona, Nevada and Idaho talk about how the people there bitch about the Californians moving there and ruining things and saying that the ones who bitch the most are the former Californians. Retired now, so on my "fixed income" I couldn't move anyway, but I still like the place I call home. Though it would be better if we could get rid of our idiot politicians and tear down a bunch of the ugly boxes people call homes. Maybe I just need to move to the woods and become a hermit. :)>

Last I heard the Hamm's Bear and Smokey started a commune in Oregon.

Hamm's had the best TV commercials and bar signs ever.   Hamm's is gone.  My hair is gone.  My energy is going.  The world is going to hell in a hamm's basket.

Small Faces?!?!?! Rotten long haired hippy scum should take a bath and join the army and get a haircut and become lumberjacks and go to church and drink Hamms the beer refreshing from the land of sky blue water and wash their mouths out with soap and stop sassing me the greasy haired little-faced freaks l ain't taking no sass from no little-faced freak that's for darned sure and I'll tell you something else...  ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

From the Land of Sky Blue Waters,

From the land of pines' lofty balsams,

Comes the beer refreshing,

Hamm's the beer refreshing.

Brewed where nature works her wonders,

Aged for many moons, gently mellowed,

Hamm's the beer refreshing,

Hamm's the beer refreshing.

From across the rippling water,

Through the whisp'ring pines and birches,

Comes the beer refreshing,

Hamm's the beer refreshing.

Comes a call to cool enchantment,

Comes a call to cool refreshment,

Hamm's the beer refreshing,

Hamm's the beer refreshing.

Hints of lakes and sunset breezes,

Dance and sparkle in each glassful,

Hamm's the beer refreshing,

Hamm's the beer refreshing.
