Thursday's 171 - Heat Wave

[zippy-kat]

Laurie, if you need help with the tomatos -and don't mind dog slobber- Maggie would be more than happy to help. Mom can't keep her from picking ours!

A boxer with a tomato fetish... only us!

[DrKym]

Hi every1!

BBBRRRRRMMMMM, BBBBBBRRROOOMMMMMM,

Backs a brand spanking new cement mixer with stainless steel liner up to the back door of the bar. VROOMMMMM......BBRRROOOMMMM

Step right up folks - all the slushies you can cart away in your own containers.

My little gift to the east coasters in this heat!

[Lady's Human]

Gini, sounds like you found a winner!

Anyone for some BBQ?

It's BBQ night here at the hotel, and while it's passable, I'd LOVE some real ribs cooked on my own grill.

Anyone here remember Martha and the Vandellas - Heat Wave......

Alright everybody sing now
..and a 1 and a 2 and a 3....

Whenever I'm with you
Something inside starts burning
and my heart's filled with fire

Stop this - it's got a hold on me
I said this ain't the way it's supposed to be

It's like a heatwave burning in my heart
I can't keep from crying
Tearing me apart

Whenever he calls my name
Sounds so soft sweet and plain
Right then, right there
I feel this burning pain
This high blood pressure's got a hold on me
I said this ain't the way love's supposed to be

It's like a heatwave burning in my heart
I can't keep from crying
Tearing me apart

Whenever I'm with you
Something inside starts burning
And my hearts filled with fire

Something's got me amazed
Don't know what to do
My head's in a haze

It's like a heatwave burning in my heart
I can't keep from crying
Tearing me apart

Ok, Ok, so I can't sing....but I've got great teeth....
Holy crap Gini...where'd you get a thing like that??? Have you been bartering with those firemen again??
One giant slushie to go please and I'll take some of those ribs LH along with plenty of napkins.

[catland]

A cement mixer! and I thought that the outboard motor was brilliant!

Darn you Slick - now I'm humming your tune.

I'm more of a Joe Cocker fan (stop it people) - especially you Vicki and Laurie

Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck gettin' dirt and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity?
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
All around people looking half-dead
Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a matchhead

But at night it's a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come on, come on and dance all night
Despite the heat it'll be alright
And babe, don't you know it's a pity
The days can't be like the nights
In the summer in the city
In the summer in the city

Cool town, evenin' in the city
Dressed so fine and lookin' so pretty
Cool cat lookin' for a kitty
Gonna look in ev'ry corner of the city
'Til I'm weezin' at the bus stop
Runnin' up the stairs gonna meet ya on the roof-top

But at night it's a different world
Go out and find a girl
Come on, come on and dance all night
Despite the heat it'll be alright
And babe, don't you know it's a pity
The days can't be like the nights
In the summer in the city
In the summer in the city

Hey Julie, isn't that the Lovin' Spoonful??? I was so in love with the lead singer....

Now you've got me singing that....

[RedHedd]

Hey Julie, isn't that the Lovin' Spoonful??? I was so in love with the lead singer....

Now you've got me singing that....

It WAS the Lovin' Spoonful and now I'm singing it too.

One Slushie to go, please

[catland]

aw - heck if I can remember - I googled it and saw Joe's name - but we can say it was the lovin' spoonful

[lbaker]

HEY, this ain't a spoonful it's a MIXER

you guys... pass that dang mixer over here

CEMENT MIXER, PUTTY PUTTY
(Slim Gaillard / Ricks)
Recorded by : Liberace; Jimmie Lunceford; Hal McIntyre; Alvino Rey.

Cement mixer, putty putty
Cement mixer, putty putty
Cement mixer, putty putty
Cement mixer, putty putty
Cement mixer, putty putty
A puddle o’ vooty, a puddle o’ gooty,
A puddle o’ scooby, a puddle o’ veet concrete.
First you get some gravel, pour it on the vout
To mix a mess o’ mortar
You add cement and water
See the mellow roony
Come out slurp slurp slurp.

"slurp slurp slurp.." I rather like the sound of that

[slick]

**knock knock** Anybody home? Gee, it's quiet in here.

Happy Friday everyone! Come on, get up and shake that dust off. I see the "seement mixer" is empty. I guess I'd better get that blender out again. Sure could use an ice cold slushie and some munchies. Hey Mario, want to come in the kitchen with me and find something to eat?? Yes, you can bring the little orangie kitten with you.

[catland]

good morning - although its almost afternoon.

I wonder if there is an entry in the Guiness book of world records for world's largest slushie?

[smokey the elder]

It's cooled off here; how about some nachos?

Well, we have some competition here - seems my cement mixer is nothing compared to what is available in a blender.

I googled for world's largest blender and VOILA! there exists one that will hold 500 GALLONS.

Check out the video to see it.

P.S. - I have ordered one for Thursday's Bar. Bring the neighbors.

[Lady's Human]

Gini, if you include industrial mixing tanks with impellers in them, I know of mixing tanks used in the beverage industry that hold up to 4000 gallons. Now THERE'S a slushie you can cool off in!

No, Mario, you can't bob for cherries in the hot tub!
