First Cup Diner!

[jerryd6818]

According to the on-line translator, the literal translation is:

"Good tomorrow my friends.
I hope, they have peaceful meet"



I don't know German from my elbow so as far as I'm concerned it could mean:

Hello earthlings
I came to conquer you.



And in English:

Good morning everyone.
Since the straglers are still up and some of the west coast pogues haven't gone to bed yet, I should go back to bed and wait until a decent hour.

Good morning, first cup brewing, gotta get ready to hit the road for a couple of days. Taking my boss on a two day, whirlwind tour of my jobs at Camp Lejeune and Fort Bragg.

Morning all! Big day today. First day of school for the kids in the district I teach in, and my anniversary. Maybe that's my wife's present getting me out of the house. Lol.

But no coffee this morning. The electricity is out.

Wow, that seems early for school to start. I haven't even heard the grands talk about school yet. I'm sure theirs is a couple of weeks away yet.
My first cup is poured and just the right temp for sippin.
Hope everyone has a great day.

Mornin' kids.....been up about an hour now.

Hi Ray. Jerry. Phil. Bruce. Glenn. (I see ya looking at the thread).

[philco]

Good morning Ray..............and the rest of you straglers.

Ray thanks for stepping up to help Joe Dirt's neighbor kid.

Got a lot of windshield time ahead of me today. I'll be back after I do 300+ miles today.

You're welcome, Phil, seems like a worthy cause. I have a nice trapper packed and ready to go.
I remember those 300 mile territory runs. Don't really have time to do much work, just spend time driving. I used to have a saying that the further I got from home, the easier I was to get along with.

[jerryd6818]

Just picked up my bugle and was limbering up my lips. It's a beautiful day in the Great Midwest. I'm happy to be alive in America.


Reveille





Looks like I'm a little late with reveille this morning. Took to long to compose this post.

Good morning everyone.

[Bacon Lover]

It's nice here in Maine, also. Just a bit humid. I'm gonna work a half day and then maybe do a little trail running.

[TripleF]

Thanks for that blast Jerry!!


Love Maine! Love it. Mornin' Liv.

[Unk]

Well, I'm trying to drink my first cup....and get a little work done. But I seem to have a developed a big lump on my arm.

That's Milo, by the way.

[jerryd6818]

It's hard enough being a south paw in a right handed world with out having a growth on your arm. And you named it.

Well, Milo looks like he's (?) a fairly arrogant fella. Just has that look on his face that says, "I own everything within a day's walk and I walk fast.".

[Paladin]

I like Milo right away! He looks like my Booger. My wife always called him Buster for obvious reasons.

[Unk]

Yep, Jerry, you pretty much nailed his personality. We have a big german shepherd - Schatzi - and she gives ol' Milo a wide berth. Kinda like having a real life Garfield and Odie in the house.

Morning Gang !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope everyone has a "'GREAT DAY"" & Wins a Gold Medal !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Old Hunter]

First cup of coffee, a little quiet time, then hit the road for another busy day - have a good one friends!

Ps My new NC hunting regulations digest came in the mail yesterday - one month until dove season - the ceremonial opening of hunting season (my favorite time of year)!

[jerryd6818]

Well frogs. I should have blown reveille when I got up at 0400. Now it's too late. I see Monk and the Colonel are up an at 'em anyway. Now where's Scott? Probably still sawin' logs with the rest of those malingerers.

Beauty day to all.

[Paladin]

No lolly gaggin here! I have my 1st cup about half gone and thinking about the rest of the day.
Hope all have a great day.

Morning gents. eerrrraaAAAWWWWWHHHH. I figure thats how you spell out a big yawn.? Im about a cup and a half in, and just about to put me boots on, pick a pocket pal and head off to work. Sun is out, beautiful day, looks like Im leavin two wheels at home.

[philco]

Just for the record I"m up and at em. Been scanning the forums and checking for spam and such. All's well.

Looks like rain here today. That won't hurt my feelings as long as it doesn't storm. Have a good one.

[Bacon Lover]

Hi Phil, it's Liv from Maine. HHH here, but I'm ready for something.

[jerryd6818]

Sir! Private Philco reports post AAPK all in order. Post and orders remain the same.

Carry on Private Philco.

[whitebuffalo58]

Geez Jerry, surely Phil's earned his Sergeants stripes by now!

WB

[jerryd6818]

Maybe WB but Sergeants don't hump a post. They stand duty as Sergeant of the Guard. We can promote him to PFC or Lance Corporal if you feel he's capable of pulling the rank.
