    I'm back on my regular eating game plan today, Andrew. Today's cookout will be mostly grilled veggies for me. :)
    It's all in a day's work, Keith. Pass the ice cream please. ;)

    Thank you Jason. I like the grain on the olive wood handle. They described it as virgin olive wood. To me it feels untreated which I guess was the meaning.

    How times have changed. My Dad grew up in rural Alabama. He drove to the courthouse, paid 50 cents, and got his driver's license. I spent 30 days in the driver's seat with my Dad as the instructional co-pilot. He strictly controlled my driving habits for the first couple of years. Looking back, I'll always be grateful for his wisdom.

    I'd be really curious to see the statistics showing how all the new regulations have improved driving safety. I see people driving and texting almost every day. Even saw a guy texting while riding a motorcycle. Maybe that's covered in the new training?
