Sure, bean soup.

He had to be nuts to do that in the bar. Well, the resulting story is soup to nuts.

Cooking up a storm: she gets jail for the soup, and he gets Bake[r-act]ed for the conduct in the bar.

No, the problem is that I prefer seeing my enemies’ houses reduced to dunghills, not my own. See Dan 2:5 (punishment for failure).

I think you underestimate the glee of destruction, sir!

I think the citizens over in Brooksville have already figured out that the job of underwear enforcement may be fraught with peril. Right, imagine some old guy trying to tell the newly hired sweet young thing that she may not be in compliance.

I’m not seeing any good way for this to work. I guess it would be inappropriate to consider whether he should just shut up and enjoy the show.

That alone might be worth some effort. Like I said, the alternative of pushing the place over in a few years is probably going to be expensive (and probably won’t give you the happy moments).

Tanner, dude, my kids are 14 and 9.

We’re all slobs.

I already live in an unbearable slum. Painting won’t change that, it’ll just look better for a few minutes and give me some happy moments.

Bacon is an almost universal good. It’s only slightly below cheese and chocolate in the perfection category.

I mean, as long as it’s not against your religion… or your ethics… or your dietary restrictions… or, well, if you’re a pig I guess bacon would suck.

But for everyone else, bacon is good.

I do give credit for adding a lot of bacon to it. I think bacon improves nearly everything.

Sure, but if you don’t shovel in the middle of a bad storm, you will never get the thing shovelled when it stops. OK, I have my doubts as to snowbird wisdom anyway.

Likewise, if you do not paint those walls, you’ll find yourself living in an unbearable slum. Your qualify of life improves with some fresh paint on those walls. I would, however, use washable paint. Eggshell is not only for those with kids, but also for messy old bachelors like me.

The alternative to the occasional paint is to just push the house over once the kids get done with grade school. That can be an expensive choice, and I am not sure you want to go there.
