Moo If You Want Another Beer

“Do you still own a pickup?”

“I haven’t owned a pickup since 2002…why”

“I need to move some stuff out of one storage area into another one.”

“And, again…why?”

“There’s a new place that just opened up, and they have two year rates that are $10 lower than what I’m paying now.”

“Why don’t you just get rid of that stuff and save the whole amount?”

“You sound like my wife.”

“You boys want something to drink?”

“I’ll have a Yuengling.”

“Make that two.”

“Dammit, I wanted to order some wings, today.”

“You can order them after I finish my beer.”

“I knew you were going to say that. You’re putting me in a bad mood.”

“I’ll drink it faster today.”

“We’ll see. Anyway, I wish you hadn’t asked about my pickup, now I’m thinking about how much I miss it.”

“You miss having a truck?”

“I miss that truck.”

“What was so special about that truck? – Wait, I didn’t mean that. Tell me one thing that was special about that truck.”

“It didn’t have air conditioning.”

“Oh, sure, I’d miss that…not.”

“It didn’t even have power windows, but it had vent windows and a split back window, and it was huge fun to drive.”

“I said, one thing. And, I bet it was hot in the summer.”

“Not really, it wasn’t like today’s cars, it was meant to be driven with the windows down.”

“You mean it didn’t go ‘whumpa-whumpa-whumpa’ when you drove?”

“Exactly!”

“Still, with the AC on, you’re comfortable and you can listen to music or have a nice conversation.”

“You can’t moo at cows.”

“What are you, seven?”

“I love mooing at cows.”

“Seriously?”

“Yeah, ask my wife and daughter.”

“You mean you used to moo at them when your daughter was little. I can see that.”

“No, I still moo at cows.”

“That’s stupid.”

“It’s not stupid, it’s fun. I even once had a cow moo back at me.”

“That’s funny. Oooh, do you have that app that identifies songs?”

“Soundhound, yes.”

“Quick, scan this one for me.”

“You’re kidding, right? That’s the Supremes.”

“I know that, but what song is it?”

“All of them. It doesn’t matter, they’re all the same.”

“I was gonna put these beers on the house, but not after that comment.”

“I take it you like the Supremes, Cheryl.”

“I do. For the record, that’s ‘Where Did Our Love Go?’ – somewhat appropriate for the moment…Dan.”

“Nice going chief.”

“Sheesh, who knew?”

“What’s that thing your family says…why do you speak?”

“She’ll get over it.”

“Well, just in case she doesn’t, you’re paying today.”

“That won’t be so bad, you’ll have had one beer and we’ll never get to order any food.

“Did you boys mention food?”

“I’m getting hungry, but Mr. Onebeer is still nursing his Yuengling.”

“We’ve covered this before, I don’t guzzle, like you.”

“I don’t guzzle, I drink at a normal pace.”

“You want another?”

“Yes, thanks Cheryl.”

“It’s not going to work.”

“What?”

“Being polite, you were hatin’ on the Supremes.”

“I’m sorry. What if I stop, in the name of love?”

“Nice try. That was one of my favorites. Here’s your beer.”

“One of your favorites? What was your favorite Supremes song?”

“If I must choose… Can’t Hurry Love…yeaaahhhh…”

“Isn’t that the one the Phi Collins released in the 80’s”

“Yeah, but there’s nothing like the original. Diana Ross had such a good voice.”

“OK Cheryl. I think we’re ready to put those wings in.”

“Are you sure, he’s still has a lot of that beer.”

“He’s done, it’s mostly spit at this point.”

“Whaaaat? Why would you say that?”

“Each time you sip, a little spit goes back in.”

“Cheryl, give me a glass of Meiomi, please.”

“Finished so soon?”

This visit to the bar has been part of Linda G. Hill’s challenging weekly series: Stream of Consciousness Saturday.

Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: “moo.” Base your post on the word “moo” or a word that rhymes with it. Bonus points if you actually use the word “moo” in your post. Have fun!

Five of the photos in the gallery are Faith’s. See if you can guess which ones they are. I’ll give you some of my bonus points if you’re right.

You have to look close but there’s a cow in the door

I still don’t understand how this picture made it to the top of this list. It’s also in the Top-10 most often viewed pictures. I do like Mini-Moos, but…

Normally, my chocolate milk is whole milk, not this lowfat stuff

American made and organic, plus a few hormones and a few chemicals (but they’re probably organic too).
