Is this supposed to be funny?

No funny at all! Bully boss.

Some wines are that expensive!

Then how about you enjoy a bit of stuffed cake, tray and all.

“Thanks. What can I do that will get me three weeks salary?"

Crabshaw’s or his?

It’s only a $3 wine. Oh.

That,s a piece opf cake M’lud.

Sounds like Mr. Veeblemiester.

Don’t screw with the one handling your food.

I like wine. I drink it almost every day. I can tell the difference between a cheap wine and a good wine. I cannot tell the difference between a good wine and a great wine.

I have two kinds of wine in my house: “swilling wine” and “chilling wine.”

I buy the swilling wine in 1.5 liter bottles and drink it at night while sitting at my computer at night eating peanuts. It is exclusively red, very full-bodied and dry.

As for the chilling wine. I actually make an attempt to pair that with a meal or serve it when we have guests. My wife and I also drink it when we are on vacation.

forget wine, I’ll go straight for the single malt scotch

I wouldn’t berate him until after the meal – he still has to bring out the hot coffee…

I used to buy the cheap California port in a half gallon jug. When I realized that I had become a common sewer instead of a connoisseur, I drank my way into AA. A long time ago, and I will be forever grateful to those folks.

But you’re the clumsy oaf that spilled it!!!

Let’s make it 4 weeks. Eat this cake jerk…..

With what you pay, he’ll hardly notice.

The Resurrection of Pigboy Crabshaw by Butterfield Blues Band, 1967.

I worked at 6 companies before I retired. At each they would have pizza day for the workers once or twice a year. At a few, upper management would actually serve us (at least for a little while). When I was at the Diablo Canyon nuclear facilities, I happened to be a meeting in the management area on pizza day. While they sent us worker bees down to the cafeteria they were bringing in lobster and shrimp for management. They really care that much about the worker bees.

I guess I’m the only one who found this extremely unfunny. Big joke, “I’m rich , so I can be an a’hole.”

“Thank you, sir. Shall I do it again?”

No use crying over spilled wine. (Dig that girl!)

My dad drank a glass of red wine every evening with his dinner. His Dr. told him a glass of wine was good for his cholesterol. He drank a large water glass every night. He didn’t like it, tried buying a “good” wine, said it wasn’t any better than the cheap stuff he had been buying.

That’s Crab talking to Shaw.
