There is so much wrong with that second sentence, one doesn’t know where to start.

I stop things by refusing to bankroll, my kids have no other source. The 25 yo still asks if she can do things and I say you’re grown you decide!

Metallica was dead to me after “And Justice for All”...

Once Hetfield decided to ‘train’’ his voice, that train went down hill fast.
Yeeahyeaaaaahhhhhh... (Blechhhh)

Plus, I sided with Mustaine in the original breakup....

Metallica’s biggest,gift to music, was Kirk Hammett’s exodus from Exodus.

I’ve always favored Megadeth as the better of the two bands.

Bob Rock puts his pants on one leg at a time. Then he makes platinum records.

Yeah, Metallica, um, drifted from their origins. But stagnation is not a recipe for success in most cases. People grow, things change.

They lost me when they did a song called “The Unforgiven II.”

Naaah, that’s Bruce Dickinson....lol

Though, I prefer the maestro Martin Birch.

It sickens me, that producers don’t get the credit they deserve.

That is interesting that Irish girls come there to work for the summer. My son has a friend from Northern Ireland and all of his friends travel and work each summer. They live for their summers abroad. I guess that is more widespread than I thought.

While I was in college i vermont, my oldest kid was in kindergarten, and at the beginning of the school year, her best friend brought in her pet cow Kim the Calf. All the kids loved playing with Kim the Calf.

At their little graduation ceremony, they had burgers made from Kim the Calf. YUM!

Sometimes I wonder if the beef I pay extra for is really some old falling down cow named “Prime”

You’ll see it all over Cape Cod and the Jersey shore. I know Six Flags New England would recruit summer help from Europe, the pool of local kids willing to work there is too small.

When we used to go to Cedar Point every summer, it was like that, too. Lots of Polish and other European help. They even had their home country on their name tags.

A combination of hardy breeds, tarps and infrared heaters for when it gets really cold.

That reminds me of one of my stories from the days I worked overnight at Wegmans. Bunch of college students had a two litter bottle of soda and were tossing it like a football. It was not caught it burst open across the front of about ten registers. I was alone up front, so I got the phone and paged for a “wet clean-up at register 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, and 30”. The whole cleaning crew came up from break, followed closely by the night floor manager in charge of the restockers, as well as all the guys who restock overnight. Security was clocked out, but had been back in the breakroom and he came up, too. Retired state trooper. The guys who thought it was all funny, suddenly sobered up when faced with some 20 men just staring at them. I just stood there smiling. Reinforcements had arrived.
