Parking Tin Signs – Party Time – It’s NOON Somewhere

April 4, 2011

It’s been a while since I did a song for a parking sign. I have always like Alan Jackson songs and this one fits this parking tin sign. Here’s the lyrics for his song. Hope every one likes it.

 

The sun is hot and that ol’ clock is movin’ slow
And so am I
Workday passes like molassas in wintertime
But it’s July
Gettin’ paid by the hour and older by the minute
My boss just pushed me over the limit
I’d like to call him somethin’
But think I’ll just call it a day

Chorus:
Pour me somethin’ tall and strong
Make it a hurricane before I go insane
It’s only half past twelve, but I don’t care
It’s five o’clock somewhere

This lunch break is gonna take all afternoon
And half the night
Tomorrow morning I know there’ll be hell to pay
Hey, but that’s all right
I ain’t had a day off now in over a year
My Jamaican vacation is gonna start right here
If the phones for me
You can tell ‘em I’ve just sailed away

Chorus:
Pour me somethin’ tall and strong
Make it a hurricane before I go insane
It’s only half past twelve, but I don’t care
It’s five o’clock somewhere

I could pay off my tab
Pour myself in a cab and be back to work before 2
At a moment like this, I can’t help but wonder
What would Jimmy Buffett do?

Jimmy Buffett spoken:
Funny you should ask, Alan
I’d say
Pour me somethin’ tall and strong
Make it a hurricane before I go insane
It’s only half past twelve, but I don’t care

Pour me somethin’ tall and strong
Make it a hurricane before I go insane
It’s only half past twelve, but I don’t care
He don’t care
And I don’t care
It’s five o’clock somewhere

Jimmy: What time zone am I on?
What country am I in?

Alan: It doesn’t matter

It’s five o’clock somewhere

Jimmy: It’s always on five in Margaritaville, come to think of it

Alan: I heard that

Jimmy: You’ve been there haven’t you?

Alan: Yes, Sir

Jimmy: I’ve seen your boat there

Alan: I’ve been to Margaritaville a few times

Jimmy: All right.
That’s good

Alan: Stumbled my way back

Jimmy: OK Just want to make sure you can keep it between the
navigational beacons

Alan: Between the bouys.
I got it

Parking Tin Sign – Why Should I have to Press 1 for English

posted by pbwethy @ 12:00 PM
August 26, 2010

Historically, English originated from the fusion of languages and dialects, now collectively termed Old English, which were brought to the eastern coast of Great Britain by Germanic (Anglo-Saxon) settlers beginning in the 5th century – with the word “English” being derived from the name of the Angles. The language was further influenced by the Old Norse language with Viking invasions in the 8th and 9th century.

The Norman conquest of England in the 11th century gave rise to heavy borrowings from Norman-French, and vocabulary and spelling conventions began to give the superficial appearance of a close relationship with Romance languages to what had now become Middle English.

The Great Vowel Shift that began in the south of England in the 15th century is one of the historical events marking the separation of Middle and Modern English.

A significant number of English words are constructed based on roots from Latin, because Latin in some form was the lingua franca of the Christian Church and of European intellectual life

English is arguably the largest language by number of words; the Oxford English Dictionary lists 500,000 words, not including technical and scientific terms.

This parking tin sign makes a great gift for anyone.

For all you Boston Red Socks fans here’s a parking tin sign for you. I know how some people like baseball it’s  like a reglion to them. My dad was one of those people.

 

Fenway Park is a baseball park near Kenmore Square in Boston, Massachusetts, USA. Stadium is located at 4 Yawkey Way, it has served as the home ballpark of the Boston Red Sox baseball club since it opened in 1912, and is the oldest Major League Baseball stadium currently in use. It is the only one of the original standards ballparks that is still in use. It is also the oldest stadium used by a professional sports team in the United States.

Parking Tin sign – Soft Serve Ice Cream history

posted by pbwethy @ 12:00 PM
May 19, 2010

The first commercial offering of soft serve ice cream was in 1938 by J.F. “Grandpa” McCullough and his son Alex McCullough, future co-founders of the Dairy Queen chain of soft serve and fast food restaurants.

Soft serve is generally lower in milk-fat (3% to 6%) than ice cream (10% to 18%) and is produced at a temperature of about −4 °C compared to ice cream, which is stored at −15 °C. A warmer temperature allows the taste buds to detect more flavor. Soft serve contains air introduced at the time of freezing. The air content, called overrun, can vary from 0% to up to 60% of the total volume of finished product. The amount of air alters the taste of the finished product. Product with low quantities of air has a heavy, icy taste and appears more yellow. Product with higher air content tastes creamier, smoother and lighter and appears whiter. The optimum quantity of air is determined by the other ingredients and individual taste. It is generally accepted that the ideal air content should be between 33% and 45% of volume. More than this and the product loses taste, tends to shrink as it loses air and melts more quickly than that with less air.

All ice cream including soft serve must be frozen quickly to avoid crystallization. With soft serve, this is accomplished by a special machine at the point of sale. Pre-mixed product is introduced to the storage chamber of the machine where it is kept at +3°C. When product is drawn from the draw valve, fresh mix combined with the targeted quantity of air is introduced to the freezing chamber either by gravity or pump. It is then churned and quick frozen and stored until require.

Here is a little history of soft serve ice cream. I know in the summer time I always want to go have ice cream. This ice cream parking tin sign makes a great gift.
