My girlfriend was aghast -

She said: 'You KNOW that I can't cook a damn thing!' (True.)

My Mom said: 'Look - I'll mix up the cake mix from the box -
but all this stuff you are talking about - the different (2)
layers and the chocolate whatever - THAT is YOUR deal.'

So be it.
These women are just not ambitious....

And the cherry pie filling goes on top, you see...

I'll do it. I must...

Aren't you a little old for a birthday cake?

Birthdays are just another day these years. Maybe when I was twelve was the last time I had a birthday cake.

I understand. It is like my wife, being nice, wanting to BBQ steaks on Father's day. The Grill area is the man area and burning expensive animal flesh on the grill is manly business. So I let her marinate the steaks of course and cook the sides etc. But the burning of animal flesh remains manly work especially on father's day:)

I told them if they did not want me 'slaving' over a grill (really it's fun) for father's day then just take me to a ball game:)

One is never too 'old' for a birthday cake. My grandmother had one on her 100th birthday.

Birthdays are just another day these years. Maybe when I was twelve was the last time I had a birthday cake.

That could explain a lot:)

Right. My mom didn't even want to go to the trouble
of BBQing hamburgers on the outdoor gas grill.
My girlfriend doesn't know how to do a shrimp stir fry -

"Okay - don't worry - I'll do it...

Happy birthday indeed, eh?

Why go to all that trouble? Just go to Wal Mart & buy one.

Personally, I would rather have a good strawberry, peach, apple, lemon, blueberry, or pecan pie. Yum, yum!

You either have to wait until the As come to town (23rd) or maybe go to RR plays Iowa...

And for most of their 22 years in the league. They haven't had a winning season since 2010 and rarely have been in contention. In fact they only had 7 winning seasons since the came into the league. Even their best year when they went to the series they did not win the division - and they had to win 21 games straight at the end of the season to make it as a wild card.

It's a real shame because Coor's Field is a very nice place to spend a summer's evening and watch a ball game - one of the best ballparks around. Perhaps that is why people are still buying tickets. That and to see their favorite visiting team when in town.

We celebrate birthdays all wrong. We should start with the number of candles on the cake for our life expectancy and remove one candle each year. When we get to no cnadles we are living on free time. Now that's worth celebrating!

LOL. Not quite there yet, but a few years behind you. However, I've noticed that the second 'half' of life seems to add depth.

Have a will and pre-pay for your funeral. I'm working on both and I might have 30 or more years to go.

I went to a funeral a few hours ago. 84 year-old German woman married to a GI. Very nice couple. He passed on in 2011, so they're together again. First time I saw one of those Columbarium storage crypts opened to store her boxed ashes.

Afterall... she does have 5 kids, ya know....

Yeah.
My Dad passed away last October.
(89yo - 3 1/2 moths short of 90)
We have the box of his ashes.
He's going to be buried with full military
honors in Brigadier General William C. Doyle
Memorial Cemetery (northern Burlington county, NJ).

My Mom didn't want to deal with it in the winter.
Neither did I. But now it's now not winter.
So time for taps.

Gotta make the arrangements.

That's why I'm steering clear of her -
even thought she is quite attractive.

So am I a jerk?
I don't think so.
The two guys who left her and her kids are the jerks.

I completely understand. Anyone who doesn't understand, doesn't understand cake and should not be trusted.
