Sod Buster

Seeing that this BBQ is missing the side dishes, Sod Buster starts cooking some butter beans (with plenty of butter), grilled corn on the cob, grilled sparrow grass, grilled summer squash, and baked potatoes ("e" for Dan Quayle).  Then he starts steaming some snap peas, broccoli, carrots, and pearl onions together. 

The aroma is wonderful.  ;D

Despite the fact that the whole world made fun of the e on the end of potatoe, many older books use the e, I am not sure when it was dropped. ;D

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

"Potatoe" is an archaic spelling of the word potato. The Oxford English Dictionary lists potatoe as a variant form, with the most recent usage cited from 1880: "She found the parson in his garden..making a potatoe pie for the winter." However, it is considered a misspelling in modern English. Although the English plural potatoes is spelt with an "e," the singular form is not, and no dictionary considers potatoe to be an acceptable modern spelling.

The problem is with modern dictionarys is they ferget many words, mine don't have reloading press, handload and many other well used words like that.  So if they leave these out, why should I trust them on how to spell potatoe. ;D

Dan Quayle lives in modern times.  If he went to a backwards school that is none of our concern.  The correct spelling is POTATO... as in potato chips.  Mmmmmmmm! ;D

You probably won't find those words in a regular dictionary that comes in just one volume.  It is estimated that the English language is comprised of 990,000 words.

All I did was name it 'n get it started. The posse made it great. A debt I can never repay. Thank you, mi amigos.

or if he were still in office,  he might have appointed a oversight committe to study the impact the spelling might have on futher generations.

I tink it's just a French word for ugly green. ;D  Look it up in the dictionary and find out.  Taupe is French for mole, so my taupe vest is French mole colored.

Used ta be a place here in Lincoln downtown called the Chartruse Caboose, made good cheese steak samwhiches. ;D
