Cyclist’s Excellent Adventure to Golden Corral.

Cyclist's picture

Well the boss wanted to go there for breakfast this morning so what the boss wants the boss gets on vacation. (And come to think about it, all other times as well) So off we went to the corporate feed bag.

So we get to the place and take a seat near the food bar and then I noticed them; two small kids - under 10 - milling around the dessert bar without an adult. Well guess what these darling little ones did next. Into the several containers with "gummy bears" and other assorted goodies went their little grimy and grubby hands to fish out those so delectable little treats. And it didn't stop with one handful either as they made several rounds to ensure they got their satisfaction by cramming each handful into their little mouths. This is so YUCKY!!!!! I guess their parents where either preoccupied in the ensuing feeding frenzy and either did not notice or did not care.

Oh well, I got to go and tend to some pesky fish.

worked for some number of years as a restaurant/food establishment inspector. Got more horror stories of these places than I care to remember. It's what you DON'T see going on that'll really gross you out!

I quit going to those places mostly because I got tired of wading in food on the floor and eating out of pans where jokers had done what they done! Throw chicken and steaks back, mashed potatoes into the beans, etc. Grasy seats and tables and stolen chicken for supper by big pocket book ladies also played a part.
Stuff has to be served in some kind of professional way. People have NO MANNERS anymore.
Red necky!

You think YOU negotiated that . . .Cy, Cy, Cy . . .let me help you out here buddy, or let me just ask one question - did she have the credit cards and checkbook?!? And you not around to see prices, or what she tucked away in the trunk?!?

Tell Mrs. Cy, job well done, we always let you guys think it was your idea.

So how is the weather and fishing? Y'all enjoy.

So are you saying women will spend all the money? Gee, where have I heard that one before?

Anyways, the weather and fishing has been just great. I can do about another week of this beach stuff. The toughest decision made during the day is "what's for dinner". I usually defer that to the boss. That's what the ring in my nose is for.

Well maybe some fishing would cure that for you! Keep having fun!

Cy, try www.hillsdale.com. Sorry for confusion. BTW, aside from being fun to catch on light tackle, those ladyfish make some mighty fine cut bait, slime and all.

Submitted by AtHomeGym on Tue, 06/16/2009 - 10:52am.

No wonder it wouldn't work--it's www.hillsdale.edu NOT .com. Sorry.

I can't make that one work either. It might be on my end.

I'm using ultra light tackle on 10lb braid with a little minnow grub. What a hoot.

in peace. And just what is a "work force"? Not in my vocabulary--among many other things.

You got me on "work Force" thingy. It could happen for me in 6 years or 10 years (most likely). This depends if the boss wants that big motor coach. Right now, I'm practicing for that big "R" event!!!

cy, gave up that work stuff for good in 2001. Miss the people but not the job. The missus also retired in 2004, so we are truly enjoying the "fruits of our labor."

Hutch... check your e-mail.

Cy... when we grow up we're gonna be just like AHG. Living on social security while traveling the world in our big shiny new motor homes. Eye-wink

AHG... glad you're having a blast with that 'retirement thangy'!!!

Nope, no motor home--just a debt-free lifestyle that allows us to go and do as we please. Never anything excessive or stupid.

Oh..you mean the lifestyle you worked so hard for during your lifetime that unachievers or debt addicts want to penalize because for some reason they cannot or fail to achieve themselves?

Congrats on being debt-free and being able to come and go in a comfortable manner. ENJOY your retirement!
