Evening everyone.
Made a good dinner tonight. Grilled some chops, boiled some sweet corn, and made a batch of scalloped taters. Had a good pork rub for the chops. I also gave then a good hickory smoke on the grill too, they came out nice and tender! Got some left overs if anyone wants me to fax them some!
I'm glad you think I am not associated with the others on that list, as they are a silly bunch.

Morning.
Today is Thursday, August 12th.
On this day in 1851 - Isaac Singer was issued a patent on the double-headed sewing machine. (He came up with this invention after his wife kept 'needling' him to do something different. He got the 'point'!)

1867 - U.S. President Andrew Johnson sparked a move to impeach him when he defied Congress by suspending Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton.
1877 - Thomas Edison invented the phonograph and made the first sound recording.
1898 - The Spanish-American War was ended with the signing of the peace protocol. The U.S. acquired Guam, Puerto Rico and the Philippines. Hawaii was also annexed.

1998 - Swiss banks agreed to pay $1.25 billion as restitution to World War II Holocaust victims.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
Why are builders afraid to have a 13th floor but book publishers aren't afraid to have a Chapter 11?
Coffee & ph00 are on. No tea! Claude didn't even show up yesterday after I went thru all the trouble to make the hot water!
