Thoughts for the day

My family lives in Charleston. There are ladies att he market that have carried down the tradition of making beautiful baskets out of sweet grass.
They sit there and holler back at one another in gullah. There is also geechee(sp) which I think is a local dialect of the gullah language.
It's really a trip to sit and listen to that.

I was just in line at Subway and the woman behind me was ordering and the woman behind the counter was flying thru the choices of cheese. One of them was "White American". :laugh:

You've never heard of White American Cheese?
There are two kinds of American cheese.

So Friday night I got to see one of my all time favorite musical groups in concert: ZZ Top.
We had tickets on the main floor, third row, it was perfect. The music was not too loud, the crowd not too big and by the end of the show we were 10 feet away from them, so stylish and effortless in their playing.
Then Saturday I go by the office and see the ad for the Sunday paper announcing our open houses. The one I had signed up for was completely wrong. Wrong house and everything and it was too late to change it. They managed to get a "Cancelled" banner across it, but no way to get the right one in. The poor sellers are facing forclosure so I went ahead and did it anyway.
Two sets of people showed up from the signs and balloons. One set was neighbors and the other was an elderly couple with sever osteoporosis. They had been looking at the house next door that was for sale and wanted to compare it to this one. They told me they had a house AND a farm they would have to sell before they bought anything and the wife was so sentimentally attached to the farm she had been paying taxes on it for 10 years. I did not see anything working out on it.
So I mention this to the seller as I am leaving and he wants to know all about them, wants to go see what they might have and trade houses with them. I cannot see how that would work, as their loan is not assumable. Plus, I don't know who these people are, they didn't sign the sign in sheet and I don't feellike staking out the AARP meeting.
