Hey Nick, this reply was hilarious. We (my better half and I) are watching A League Of Their Own, at the moment. Knowing your fondness for the Cubbies, I am curious about one thing. What are your thoughts and feelings about the universal DH rule?
Nick, I have been thoroughly entertained by your Thursday (Saturday) post. Considering how hard I chuckled and snorted, I’m glad I did not have my coffee in hand. Currently, we’re having a yard sale. The tools I laid out have not sold yet. I’m starting to think that people don’t know how to use tools anymore. Many mothers, fathers, etc either do not know either or that don’t have the time. It’s something that I’ve attempted to pass on to my kids, but sometimes I get a little boring in my instruction. Plus, the dad jokes are not as entertaining as they used to be. I’ll have to up my repertoire. What is your favorite cut of beef and pork, include your fish of choice in your answer? I like NY strip, mid-rare, with a peppercorn crust. My favorite part of the hog was the tenderloin until I had well prepared jowls in Spain - delectable. Snapper topped things for awhile. However, freshly caught trout here in MT is hard to beat. Eat well and prosper!p
I like when they self-reveal upfront, though. “Tell me you’re a dick without telling me you’re a dick.” Oh, you went ahead and did it anyway? Okay, thanks.
I’ve been a dick and a Dick but never a Grandpa. I’ve also been Rick but now I’ve re-embraced my childhood nickname Ricky.
To the point: When you begin your posts with that chuckle of yours, I chuckle. How could anyone consider that you’re wearing an angered, torturing look? Jovial comes to my mind.
As for time zones, I am currently in a zone of my own. I didn’t get to the stack until Wednesday (I’m reminding myself it’s Wednesday) I was recently fired, so I bought an RV and retired.
My hometown is Easthampton, Massachusetts. I’m currently just up the road a piece on my first foray into the full time RV life at an awesome in Pittsfield ( what a name)/ Lanesborough, Ma. I have to plug it. Mt Greylock Campground Park. 2 thumbs up. I’d give it more but I was only given 2 thumbs at birth.
My questions: Have you ever considered taking a break from it all and becoming a nomad?
Will you ever or are you now, a grandpa?
Best decision I ever made.
Grandpa: definitely a creeper.
Love, to you and Megan,
Ricky
Ps. One of my favorite P&R episodes was when you went to Scotland.
Haha. I had a Grandpa Dick. That is why I clicked. I thought u were gonna talk about your wdytya episode. Great response though. My question: Have you done any more digging or thinking about your ancestors?
Hey Nick love Donkey Thoughts and ALL of your work. Hope you have a great time on whiskey Islay island (a hunch since Lagavulin, Laphroaig, Bowmore, Jura and bunnahabhain are all birthed and raised there) and hope you are looking out towards the out hebredies this misty morns with a glass of the water of life; as I am about to head back to work as the school kids in Falkirk are getting ready tae go back to school. Hope you didnae get wet in the heat storm last night ken. Keep up the good work. Ps thats a crackin shot of Prince Harry and William you just would never get those two together for a photo ever again lol.
Right im offskies to work imagining your singing......
"Im not Ron Swanson... but I am on Whiskey Island ooooooooooooh
Im not Ron Swanson... but I do like Lagavulin. Aaaaaaaaahhhhh
Im not Ron Swanson...... but shit i missed my bus now noooooooooh"
Hi, Nick. My daughter, Phoebe will be looking after you at The Machrie. She’s a big fan but a professional, so probably won’t nerd out around you. Say Hi for me as we won’t see her until September for my birthday. We both like Lagavulin FYI
Grandpa Dick is certainly aptly named (and I don’t mean the “Grandpa” part).
Everything about this is gold.

I prefer pitchers to hit. It's more sporting.
Despite growing up a Red Sox fan, and being grateful for everything Big Papi did for the team and the city, I couldn’t agree more.
Do you have a time machine? As the crow flies, I’m not too far away and it’s Saturday here 😂. Big love to you and the good lady from County Antrim xx

Very effective use and emphasis of Grandpa Dick with the spoken word here.
Mrs. Grandpa Dick may need to monitor his screen time.

Well defended, Nick! This gruff demeanor is evidently a byproduct of testoserone, as it is a hallmark of every man in my Family.
ME: Why are you mad?
HIM: I'm not mad.
ME: Let's see you smile...
HIM: I am smiling.
I have also come to accept rawwwwwr and grrrrghhhh as sounds of contentment, but I still do not know when he is smiling.
