Willy-Bill's BBQ

Saturday afternoon Willy had a fam’ly bbq.....well, actually there was a b’day party for his grandson, Eric....
(he’s four) ‘n afterwards, a bbq ‘cept he didn’t burn the burgers the way Pop did.....David didn’t make it of course, he’s in India or Nepal, one t’other....’n Gina.....
Gina ‘n Andrew went to San Francisco for a whatever ‘n Gina had shrimp salad ‘n ended up sick....I never touch sea food of any kind m’self....I keep tellin’ ev’ryone that it’s bad for you but......
Had a fun time...got a chance to discuss politics with my liberal son-in-law.....he thinks I’m somewhere to the right of Attila the Hun...S’funny, I think I’m a centrist, that’s what I keep tellin’ m’self ‘n ev’ryone else...I was raised a Democrat ‘n I don’t feel like I’ve changed all that much over the years...I think the Democrat party moved away from me.....
I’ve been listening to the Dems slam Sarah.....well, everyone one ‘cept Obama, he’s been very careful not to be too negative about her....well, mostly.....I think slamming her is a dumb move ‘n Obama has been wise not to say much.....until yesterday when he made the remark that if you put lipstick on a pig, it’s still a pig....now, all his apologists are saying he wasn’t referring to Palin at all....’n maybe he wasn’t...I don’t care...I’m tired of all of them right now.....
It’s September but it still feels like summer....well, maybe late summer....still, there was an article in the Bee t’other day about Apple Hill ‘n t’days mail brought an L.L.Bean catalog so I guess it’s Autumn.....time keeps chuggin’ right along no matter how I feel about it....it’s like my opinion doesn’t even matter....I’d feel bad about that except I’ve been ignored so long that I’ve gotten used to it.....ah well, it’s a big club, ain’t it.....
Dave’s back in India but he sez he’s going back to Nepal...my guess is (‘n since I haven’t heard from him, it’s only a guess) that he’s buying the Enfield ‘n riding it back to Nepal.....seems to like Nepal ‘n I’m looking forward to another blog from him......
