What is Duffy's Tavern?

Man, it is good to be back! Hello, and since I can't speak Dragonish, would somebody let Storm know that (He? She? Something else?) has been appointed our official executioner of those whom Guohua has marked for complete destruction?

You know, I'm surprised at how much running around I'm doing. I'm glad for the chance to sit back and enjoy the company of our supremely talented members. If it's not too much trouble, delightful Mrs. G., could you have one of your superbly trained assistants bring me a hot toddy, and a small little snack?

What a day! My 82 year-old cousin in California suffered a massive stroke. After a week in the hospital, they've announced he will live and they're even looking at some physical therapy to restore some use to his right side.

last night, my younger daughter went to a party, and somebody slipped a drug into her drink. She's on so many medications now that her body couldn't handle it, and she had an immediate attack. She's spent the day in bed trying to recover.

Good news? Next Sunday is my Dad's 100th birthday. We'll have a pretty nifty family party. It's too bad he's been dead for so long, but our family doesn't pay attention to those things.

Hey, Night Star. How did you get Storm? Obtaining, and binding a dragon is, according to the immortal words of Tommy Lee Jones in the first MIB movie, "That's double tough."

Dear Mrs. G., do you still have the blonde on staff who used to sit on my lap? I'd much prefer you, of course, but you've been taken by a great guy.

gouhua Darlin', we really do need a nickname for you. How the heck do you pronounce that anyway? I have been meaning to ask you that for like forever! LOL

Night Star,Charles1952,

Alright y'all . . . I've blathered enough about enough things hereon.

How about the rest of you posting some more diverse blathering that I can blather back at!??!

It gets annoying to scroll down repeatedly and find few others that I can harass with my replies. Harassing myself just doesn't result in the same glee or giddy euphoria.

Naw . . . I'm not really that sadistic . . . just blathering . . .

I did manage to throw some more mugs, though. Yea for that. The firing deadlines are racing down the track toward those of us involved in the . . . near term sale . . . Though, thankfully, I have my quota of 50 pots for that all done, fired and boxed up waiting for the sale. . . . Will see if I get 50 mugs made by the deadline.

Guess I'll have to go see what atrocities are still being committed at certain other TOS's.

Good Evening fellow Hernandos. I sure do have a lot of catching up to do but first, I've brought plenty of my mountain shine and some special 5 year, oak barrel aged.

I hope no one minds if I have a moonshine hot chocolate and take my shoes off, I promise my socks are nice and clean.

@night Star, How wonderful to see you and a dragon how exciting. I've always wanted to see one up close.

Dear, Dear,,,, No, Not to worry, I would never harm your Pet,,, No,,, this is a Wild Turtle who has willingly offered up his life for our eating Pleasure and the healing properties of his Shell and other Herbs hell be simmered for nearly 24 hours with,,,,, Excellent Natural Healing Properties. I will list here.

Turtle soup is highly recommended by Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as the best possible medicine to revive failing kidneys. The kidneys controls every organ in the body, especially the heart and the pancreas. Weak kidneys can cause high blood pressure, rapid heart rate, and Type II diabetes. When your kidneys are completely failing, you have two choices: turtle soup or a kidney transplant.

To serve the soup, remove the pieces of turtle shell. You may also remove the turtle meat. You do not have to eat the turtle meat, as all of the medicinal properties will be in the broth. The amount of broth that you are required to drink depends on how much you boil it down. Normally, about 12 ounces of broth will be enough to have a good effect on your kidneys.

Turtle soup can be eaten once a month until your kidneys recover. For people who don’t have weak kidneys, the soup can be eaten once a year to maintain good health.

How will you know if your kidneys have improved, after you have eaten the soup? A TCM doctor can tell you how well your kidneys are working. When your kidneys are working the way they should, you will have not have to get up at night to go to the bathroom, and you will have no tell-tale symptoms of failing kidneys, like dry mouth. You will have renewed energy and your blood pressure, and blood sugar, will be normal.

My next post here will be my recipe for the soup. How it made is Very Important.
Also keep in mind, Not only is it Good For You and Your Body,,, It Taste Good Too!  

Oh Mrs. G, i would love some of your soup, I'm sure it will do me well.

This body was unprepared for the mayhem it's been through these last few weeks. Thank you for your kindness and care G, it's been felt and appreciated.
