Hi Mark. Have a Philadelphia pretzel. They are really good!









They look good, with mustard.

The person, who "invented that pretzel", lived two doors down from me, when I was a kid.

Living on hillcrest court, in Sleepy Hollow, IL. (home of the headless horseman..).

Yep, they started making that big soft pretzels, in their basement.

And, after a while, they started hiring people.

Then, they bought a factory.

It's a good product.

With mustard, course.

Jeez, Mark, where do you get such stories from?

The Legend of Sleepy Hollow was written by Washington Irving while living in Tarrytown, New York, and the village of Sleepy Hollow is nearby, in Westchester County.

Pretzels have been made for centuries in Europe and were introduced to the Americas by the Pennsylvania Dutch. Philadelphia is famous for the pretzels and even has the first Pretzel Museum of soft pretzels.

But I agree with you about the mustard if that’s any consolation.

I lived in Sleepy Hollow.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleepy_Hollow,_Illinois



I know

"Where the legend came from".

Every year, on Halloween, a headless horseman, would ride around, "and throw out candy".

I seen him, year after year.



Never believe, "anything out of new york".

Unless you can touch it.

I could touch, our headless horseman, could they?

Ha

Ha

Ha

Sez I.

Ho ho ho

Sez you.

Nice troll ya got gong here, Mark.



What does Wikipedia have to say:

:
Although it shares its name with Washington Irving's famous short story "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow", Sleepy Hollow, Illinois is not the original town about which Irving wrote. That distinction belongs to the town of Sleepy Hollow, New York, formerly known as North Tarrytown.
Washington Irving is buried in Tarryton New York right next to the Real Sleepy Hollow.

Have a pretzel.

Don't argue with me crazy person.

I seen, the headless horseman, myself.

He had no head.

i.e. headless horseman.

But, this is a mute point, in the big scheme of things.

I now live in Minnesota.

Brainerd.

"The Home of Paul Bunyan".



Now, if you tell me..

Paul Bunyan, is really from new york??

I would really have to smack you.

Beat you about the head and neck, with a fresh fish.

A slimy one.

Maybe a carp, or a catfish.

You've been warned.

Now I know you’re just trolling here, Mark.

Everybody knows Paul Bunyan is from New England; Bangor, Maine to be exact.

That’s the home of the lumber industry and where do you think all that lumber went?

Yessir, it went to build New York City.

:
Bangor, Maine
Bangor claims to be both the birthplace of the lumber industry and the Birthplace of Paul Bunyan. A titan of a statue in the city reminds Bangorians of their connection to this legendary character.

That guy's a midget.

Is FAMOUS..

High and low

Low and high.

For the movie Fargo.

And the real, true, "wacky way, we speak".

Hey der..

Which is a local phenomenon, probably related to "microbes in the water".

Or "brain worms".

Hard to say. Der.

Fargo



But, we're proud, of the way we speak.

It's like pig latin, to most of you.

Secret code, amongst us Minnesota intellectuals.

And, we have them..

Several.

I know about ten.

Apparently it wasn't (yet). A bunch of his shitposts appeared yesterday in Politics.

So I went ahead and (abused my mod powers and) locked him up again.

And you ain't "my brother".

Bro.

You, define everything from me, as "a shitpost".

You just don't like conservatives.

Why don't you, "just talk in the mirror?"

If you just want to hear yourself.

K?

Thank you.

Someone screaming my nane..

Someone screaming my nane..

I'm a wheel

I'm a wheel

I can roll

I can feel

And you can't stop me turning

Cause I'm the sun, I'm the sun

I can move, I can run

But you'll never stop me burning

Come down with fire

Lift my spirit higher

Someone's screaming my name

Come and make me

holy again..

The sun came out in Georgia.

No shirt season, begins.

Did not put on a coat, "one time", all winier.

The girls would cry

And say, "Oh my!!"

Not fair!!

I do it for the gals, course

All fer them

And them, fer all.

Got to give something back

I always say

In my little way.

Hey hey, yer a monkey.

Hi, you delusional fuckwit.

You’re approaching AARP territory, blew through what little $$ you had, drive a POS old muscle car with a hood decal, have no social skills, babble inane self-indulgent nonsense on the internet, dwell-in-the-past referencing old videos/images, and are living in a motel.

Don’t think the girls will be interested.
