It's a long story...
But, I figured I'd better go ahead on and give out our "First Annual Comment Of The Year Award."
Like I said, it's a long story...
But, I figured I'd better do it before Friday.
Anyway...to make the story really long, the guys that work in Maintenance at my day job always invite me to their parties...Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc. So, I'm invited tomorrow, and I decided to bring my offering of the best damn cookie that I've ever eaten (or baked, btw).
While putting together my recipe, and getting ready to bake it this year, I knew something was just not right. The dang thing looked WAY too big, and all. It came out okay, but I realized right before I popped the sucker in the oven that the last time I made one of these (Jan. 7, 2012), I used Nestle's chocolate chips, and the "Toll House Cookie" recipe. This holiday season, I cheaped out, and bought Hershey's chocolate chips, and used their recipe on the bag instead.
The dang thing expanded up on me, and nearly made like a bad science fiction movie. Still, it looks (and smells like heavenly sin).
So...to make a long story even longer...I looked back at a blog post I did extremely early in 2012, because I knowed I had told y'all how to make your own pan full of sin. I just love the internet...it reminds us of junk we just KNEW we'd remember to do, even though we forget within a few days.
Anyway....from this post, the "Comment Of The Year" goes to Jim at My Bossier:
"When I saw all that plaid flannel and dungarees, I thought a lesbian had got loose in your kitchen. Then I realized their was no work boots and that it was just you."
Thanks so much to you ALL for all the pithy, funny, and serious comments in 2012. (Too bad none of us will be around after Friday to continue on with the pithy, funny, and serious).
Crud...
But, ALL Y'ALL'S comments are just grrrrrrreat! It's been REALLY NICE knowin' y'all!
But, y'all are all losers (except for Jim)... being initially mistaken for a lesbian really touches the heart of the panel of judges....
I don't know what to say, I've never not been a loser before. I think I will call this my Martina award. On behalf of myself and all of the staff at My Bossier, thank you.
ReplyDeleteIf you got any valuable possessions (money, jewelry, guns, drugs, good food) that you want to divest yourself of before the world ends, I'll gladly take any donations...
ReplyDeleteCongrats Jim. You must be very proud and you certainly deserve to win. Anyone who can win after hurting Andy's feelings like you did, had one heck of a comment. (remember indicating there might be a something between Corch St Nick and Andy. He was very upset.)
ReplyDeleteThank you Bill, and you're right. Andy is very, very touchy about his relationship with Nick Saban. I never meant to offend.
ReplyDeleteAnd Dave, I'm giving up most of my stuff but I'll never surrender my Martina Award, it's priceless.
In re: the WX forecast. You KNOW how weathermen are. Just sayin'.
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah, the lesbian comment was danged good.
Andy, I made a badge and put on the blog noting this significant award. I'll probably leave it up there for many hours.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jimbo. I'm e-mailing your prize/award/whatever (which I forgot to post).
DeleteI truly did not take offense to your initimations about Corch St. Nick, and myself. I am secure in my manhood, and have thrown many Y chromosomes to prove it.
...have thrown many Y chromosomes to prove it.
ReplyDeleteMe, too. Some of 'em actually TOOK.
NYUK!
DeleteYou crack me up! That cookie looks fabulous!
ReplyDeleteCB, they are more fabulous than you can imagine. Make you some!
DeleteGlad to see you back at the keyboard. Really.
Congrats to Jim. And Andy, good thing you weren't wearing those boots like you usually do.
ReplyDeleteFunny Dan. Reeeeeeeellll funny...
DeletePartner, I've been silent over at your place, even though I've been reading. It's just that once you get finished writing, there is nothing to add.
English teachers...
Sigh.
Homonym alert. Should say "there" was no work boots. That was should prolly be were, but ain't sure on that one.
ReplyDeleteJim...you can only get away with "Anonymous" so often.
DeleteJust sayin'...
Hey, Andy! We're still around, boots and flannel or not!!
