  • Irishman's first drink with his son
    J JimmyRopes

    While reading an article last night about fathers and sons, memories came flooding back to the time I took me son out for his first pint. Off we went to our local pub only two blocks from the cottage. I got him a Guinness. He didn't like it------so I drank it. Then I got him a Kilkenny’s; he didn't like that either------so I drank it. Finally, I thought he might like some Harp Lager? He didn’t-------I drank it. I thought maybe he'd like whiskey better than beer so we tried a Jameson’s. Nope! In desperation, I had him try that rare Redbreast, Ireland's finest. He wouldn't even smell it. What could I do but drink it?! By the time I realized he just didn't like to drink, I was so drunk, I could hardly push his stroller back home. I'll get my coat. :sigh:

    Still a disproportionate amount of force for the situation at hand. Imagine if there were collateral damage what the story would morph to then. What is wrong with taking out a pad and writing the license plate number and then radioing it to others on patrol?

    J JimmyRopes

    or as some have come to call it Foodbook This is for those of the older generation who do not really comprehend why Facebook exists. Presently, I am trying to make friends outside of Facebook while applying the same principles. Therefore, every day I go down on the street and tell the passers-by what I have eaten, how I feel, what I have done the night before and what I will do tomorrow night. Then I give them pictures of my family, my dog and me gardening and spending time in my pool. I also listen to their conversations and I tell them I love them. And it works. I already have 3 persons following me: 2 police officers and a psychiatrist.

  • The difference between 15 and 50
    J JimmyRopes

    I remember taking my Mother out for lunch and as we were walking to the restruant we were chatting. All of a sudden she steps off the curb onto the roadway where there were a lot of cars going by. I took hold of her arm so she couldn't wander into traffic and told her to look both ways before stepping out onto the road. At that moment I had memories of her telling me the exact same thing when I was a small boy. I realized then that the roles had reversed and things would never be as I remembered them. The circle of life had indeed turned.
