My older son gave me a hug tonight and asked, "Where did you go, Dad?" I guess I've

[Redstone]

lost too much weight lately (40 pounds since last September).

Anyone want to go out for bacon cheeseburgers?

1. That's some pretty excessive weight loss there, Red...

That's some pretty excessive weight loss there, Red. I've got co-workers who would give up a paycheck for your secret.

But if you;re up for a splurge, might I suggest two foot-long chili cheese hot dogs from Sonic, plus a side of chili-rings? <In my best Andy Griffith> "MMMmmmm, that's some mighty good eatin'."






(I hope the weight loss is intentional and not... you know, something else, otherwise I come across as a real jerk. And even though I am, I don't like to come across that way)

[Redstone]

2. Gawd, I'd give up a toe to have a Sonic within 300 miles of where I live...

Redstone

[Redstone]

17. No, it wasn't intentional, but no, you do NOT "come across as a jerk." Really,

you don't.

Redstone

[Gormy Cuss]

3. Well damn. Make that three bacon cheesburgers.

Two and a half for you, one half for me.

[Redstone]

8. That works for me. Provolone on mine, please.

Redstone

4. Make sure you dip it in 85% cocoa-content chocolate and then deep fry it

:P

Aisle pass. Thanks anyway, and congratulations! :fistbump:

[Redstone]

6. Thanks, but I don't eat chocolate. But the frying part? I do like that.

Redstone

[kentauros]

30. The chocolate part was for those that are into

"chocolate-covered bacon"

Deep-frying a whole burger would be akin to a "Monte Cristo" so why not? :D

[Lil Missy]

5. It's a date!

(And I have a Sonic a couple blocks away from my house!) :D

[Redstone]

7. I would if I could, but I can't. The nearest Sonic is about 300 miles from here.

I'm jealous of you, dammit.

Redstone

[RevCheesehead]

9. Come on over and I'll make you one.

:hi: :loveya:

[Redstone]

10. Would that I could; at least I'd know the cheese would be the best! Thanks for the offer.

Redstone

[PaddyBlueEyes]

11. Did you say cheeseburgers??

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Im there.

[LynzM]

12. Yum!

I <3 Bacon Cheeseburgers... second place goes to the food at the Polish diner near our place. You game? :D

:hug:

[Redstone]

15. A Polish diner? I've never been to one of those, just the Greek ones. I'm game, indeed.

Redstone

[LynzM]

34. Yeah, it's good stuff.

Potato pancakes, kielbalsa, pierogies, and excellent "typically American" fare... pancakes, eggs, bacon, etc. Oh, and stuffed crepes. Yum! Look up Nita's in Willi... :D

[harmonicon]

13. sounds good

but I'm trying to lose weight.... maybe 40 - 60 pounds. Ugh.... will eating bacon cheeseburgers help me do that? is that how you did it? :)

[Redstone]

18. Uh, no, actually I lost the weight from having MS and chronic pain; the burgers are what I hope

will get back the 20 out of those 40 pounds that I really can't afford to not have.

Redstone

[harmonicon]

33. damn

that's rough man. Sorry. Eat a few for me then!!!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

14. My dear Redstone!

Now, you've just got to get you and MrsR out here! I make one mean bacon cheeseburger!

My local meat market has the world's most awesome baconburgers all ready to cook...

So c'mon! Consider yourselves invited!

:9

:hug:

[Redstone]

16. Give us four days to make the drive out, since I don't fly anymore. I'll advise you of our ETA.

Redstone

[CaliforniaPeggy]

27. The guest room is ready! (nt)

[graywarrior]

19. Yipes!

Do yuo feel any better?

[Redstone]

20. Better, maybe not so. But lighter, definitely.

Redstone

[graywarrior]

22. Well...go have a sundae.

[Redstone]

25. Thanks, but no thanks. They'd kick me out of New England if they knew that

I don't eat ice cream.

Redstone

[RetroLounge]

21. Meet me in Pittsburgh next month

I'll buy you a Primanti's...

:hi:

RL

[Redstone]

23. A Primanti's? Hell, I'll pay, and pick up the taxi fare as well. It's been over 30 years since

I've had one of those.

Redstone

[RetroLounge]

29. miss pie took me for one a few months back

yummy indeed!

:hi:

RL

[PaddyBlueEyes]

32. PRIMANTIS

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

[DS1]

24. I know you mentioned an awesome cheesesteak place that was local to you

Skip the burgers, go for the full sub!

[Redstone]

28. Tomorrow, I believe I'll do that. It's the only place in Connecticut that callls it a "hoagie,"

instead of referring to it as a "sub" or a "grinder."

Redstone

[applegrove]

26. Good for you. That is what I have to loose. And I'm not doing a good job of it.

[Redstone]

35. Hey, just don't do it the way I did. Eat well and exercise instead.

Redstone

[Metta]

31. Mazel tov. I'm feeling the love.

Congrats. :toast:
