I had a 1981 Nissan Skyline Turbo EX when I was stationed in Okinawa. Got on the expressway going to the north end of the island after work on a Friday. Averaged 167mph toll to toll...when I was coming to the end of the expressway I see a sign, "end of expressway 1 KM", a few seconds later, "end of expressway 500 meters", holy mackerel that will sneak up on you fast...I was so hard on the brakes to slow down before the toll booth the front brakes had smoke rolling out. In Japan they can give you a speeding ticket based on time from ticket issue to ticket pay...the toll booth lady put it in the system, looked at the time and thought there must have been a misprint on the time stamp...payed my toll, and took it a slow the rest of the way north. hehe.
Sooooo thankful that almost 30 years ago I married a woman who defies modern stereotypes.
As a kid, I grew up on this for Sunday morning breakfast. I remember getting OJ or Tang as my drink. Brings back fond memories.
Good sausage gravy is wonderful, bad sausage gravy ruins your whole week.
Never had bad…..
Learned from grandma and mom.
Make some mean sausage gravy, my almost 11 yr old girl requests biscuits and gravy fairly often.
Also have a recipe for what I think are some pretty dang good biscuits. My mom prefers them too, compared to her old recipe.
Wont lie, first time I saw a pic of the gal who runs this site I was smitten.
Several of her recipes are in use here. Her pizza dough and sauce and quite good too.

ye is the plural of thou. Since thou was the informal singular, ye is the informal plural. This lasted until Early Modern English.
Because we got lazy or Vikings in England had a hard time, we dropped informal pronouns around 1600-1700 and just use formal you/your for everything
But the correction posted is more proper as it is singular, rather than plural, and thus the original poster was doubly wrong. =)
The more ye know.
But the thorn thing is real--Ye Olde Shoppe means 'You Old Shop' which is bad. . Ye looks like a thorn letter though and because printing presses didn't have the thorn Y was used as a substitute. So Ye could also mean The because no idiot would 'you dog found a stuck', it's 'the dog found a stick' it's the difference between printing and handwritten.

Amazing how many of you guys owned vehicles that exceeded the makers published top speed by as much as 40%. Must have been running nitrous oxide...
How many days since that man last slept?An Army of one...
Benefits of reading King James version I guess. I know ye has multiple meanings as well. It just worked better for the example of how weird it could sound.
Looks familiar. I think the Mrs and I flew into this valley in NZ South Island to hike the glacier at the head of the valley. Of course, there’s so many beautiful valleys in NZ with airstrips it could be any of them.
So basically poor math skills are a global thing....
I would never eat sausage gravy in a restaurant only the home cooked version for me.
I haven't been there in a long time. I don't think they were off limits when I was stationed there 1991-1993?
Stupidity is universal and humans are much more similar than they are different
I like to watch the television shows where they lump together short videos of people doing stupid things, Americas Funniest Home Videos, Failfactory and the like. I was a little surprised and very relieved when I heard languages other than English.
Thank you,
