    I second the butternut pie!
    Back when we lived in Hellinois we grew a few tons of squash. I sold most of it but always had plenty left over. We ate lots of pies, fries and soup. :)

    BTW, there's a variety called 'butterscotch' which is small but extra sweet. It's only real downside is it doesn't keep for more than 3-4 months.

    Germ have you been to Black Rock restaurants? I tried it last night I ate it all even the sides. They bring you a steak on a flat hot rock that is heated to 450 degrees and you cook your own steak, damn good.

    Dress shirts with generic sizes like small, medium, large. They never seem to fit quite right...who are these people they are trying to fit?

    Politicians who send me texts, hey I'm so and so. I'm running for xxxx

    Had a great response last night.

    Bastard didn't have the balls to even text back to "send text to 1234 to be removed from our list"

    that, my friend- is a Michigan Leuey (left-u-turn) also known as a "Michigan Left" and per this
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michigan_left
    a "Michigan loon" (never personally heard that)
    Speaking of; Germ- care to chime in? What do you call it? My family always called it a "leuey"

    It wasn't until I moved to IL 20 some years after I left MI that I learned that U-turns are illegal in some places. Then again, a lot of things are illegal in IL that aren't legal in other places. And vice versa. Like robbery. Voting more than once in the same election. And murder.

    Back to topic; it beats getting stuck at a L turn 2-3 times with short L green arrows as traffic backs up. Something I have seen more frequently- MI is implementing an innovative idea- from red across all lanes: the straight green light drops first; followed by a flashing yellow L turn arrow (still with a green straight) ; then the straight lanes go yellow to red and then the L turn flashing yellow turns to a green L arrow only for a short time to let stragglers through. It works amazingly well. Of course, IL drivers are much too stupid to ever even come close to grasping such a complicated concept and it would cause 20 car pileups all over Chicagoland.

    We just called them a Michigan Left, and they are way better than sitting in the left hand lane on a busy street forever. Also stops the jack ass who pulls out into the turn lane and then waits to merge. Yes to new comers they may seem odd, but I can't stand going other places without them.

    I don't mind the MI left turns. It's the left turn on a red arrow that confuses me. You can turn left when the arrow is flashing?

    Strike one on your man card. You can totally eat steak every night. High blood pressure and cholesterol be damned!
