Miles, I want you to have it, if only because you have just parodied from one of my favorite movies of all time.
I too want you to have all cool stuff that you want, if only because you have recognized my parody. :-bd

This bad mamba jamba will slice meat, cheese and veggies. After I got that, I'd build a smoke-house and start smoking my own meats. Mmmm ham, turkey, chicken.
And if you get this, I want to move in next door. I'll trade desserts for your ham, turkey, and chicken!

When you get one, can I come over to try it out? It looks like a lot of fun. :)

I think I might get creative and mount the Berkel Food Slicer to the throttle box on the Dreamflyer. Then I can slice meats and cheeses while increasing and decreasing thrust.

I would like to have a greenhouse. Not a huge one, maybe 12x20...I would like to grow tomatoes & cukes and whatever in the winter plus start my own plants for the summer garden.

I second that, greenhouses are fun, and they are a great escape in the winter.

As long as you're willing to do a lot of the crashing on the couches.
And maybe buy me a couple of sandwiches or something along the way.

I meant Nov 27 (the day before Thanksgiving), not Nov 17.
But anyway. Pretty solid adventure. Back to Atlanta just in time for the first big Christmas party. Yes, please.

My big Christmas party is the Saturday closest to the Winter Solstice. So that makes it December 19th this year.

Back to Charlotte the next week, probably Dec 15-17ish. I promised my cousin's kids I'd come and initiate them to the delight that is Home Alone this year.

Miles, fire up the cheese plate.

And although I know you know I wasn't serious, I can't come after all. I cook Thanksgiving dinner around here. I wouldn't be allowed to leave the day before.
