Breakfast or lunch, it matters not to me! A Beef on Weck and a glass
of Genny would be a great way to enjoy some ham camaraderie.
I might opt for a soft drink instead of the Genny, but other than that
it sounds good to me. Be sure and let me know ahead of time next time
you plan to head up this way, and we'll plan a get-together.
(For those not familiar with Western new York culture, Genny is a
locally brewed beer that's quite popular in these here parts)
Rochester, to be exact. Gawd, I miss that stuff. Red hots, beef on a
weck, real wings.....
If you get to Rochester or Syracuse, check out Dinosaur BBQ.
Snow blower!? You ain't a "real" Western New Yorker! If you were,
you'd use a shovel like they used to do a hundred years ago. It's
still a perfectly efficient and viable means of snow removal. Anybody
who uses a snow blower is just plain lazy. :-)
Damn straight. ;-)
I still have and use my shovel from Palmyra/Newark days. Just the
right size for the car trunk, snow slips right off, eay on the back.
If I were to
ever move again, I think I'd just go to various places and walk
around carrying a snow shovel. As soon as someone asked me,
"What the heck is THAT?" -- I'd stop!
Reworking of old Navy story about a sailor with an oar...
Just make sure the guy who asks is a local resident and not some
tourist from somewhere in the Mojave Desert who's just visiting! Or
one of those lazy types who's just interested in clearing the driveway
and has never even owned a shovel like a "real" Western New Yorker.
Ayup. Or who thinks "lake effect" has something to do with a
California basketball team...
