That’s a touching home page.
I dunno. Ya just picture a guy with the FR name DUMBGRUNT carrying around a Louisville slugger and having trouble counting to 10 :).
You are OBVIOUSLY VERY FAR from that biased and misinformed interpretation on my part!!
It would be like you thinking I always wear black and have a cross on, and am a sports car driving thug with fuzzy dice and Rosary Beads hanging from the car mirror, with uncles that were/are mobsters and who indeed DOES have a baseball bat (among other accouterments) in my car and who says “forget about it” all the time just because I’m Italian and live on Staten Island.
Well, come to think of it... :)
I did live in Bloomingdale Il for some years and ALL my neighbors were Italian.
Good people.
I’m still not sold on the burying the fig trees for the winter thing?
Lot of work.
I dunno. Ya just picture a guy with the FR name dp0622...
I picture a guy I worked for long ago.
Very large Played football for Philadelphia in the 1930s.
Very Italian and a real gentleman, with a great sense of humor. Oh, he could laugh!
One day I said, Joe with all the money you made playing football why are you still working? (at age 67)
Big DEEP laugh and he says Grunt, Grunt, Grunt let me tell you...
He said not only did they not always get paid and they were to receive train fare to the next game, maybe. Even if they were paid they would HITCHHIKE to the next game!
Not exactly big bucks!
He was a joy to work for.
