Baby are you down, down, down, down, down.

Greetings to your bones!


As you all know we here at Bones Schmones love to celebrate a good holiday, so, in order to prepare you and your marrow for the holiday season we would like to give you a few helpful tips on how to keep those old skeletons a' grovin' even though the turkey is a' gurglin'.


1. Don't eat moose, espcially not this moose. It's no good fo dem bones. Look at him, he's just a friend. If you are offered a slice of moose, reply politely, "I'm not a moose guy."





2. Pray for Joseph Ambrose. Look, just cuz your bones are nimble doesn't mean you get to forget about ol' brittle bones Ambrose.



3. Butter up them bones. Look, obviously Thanksgiving is a tough time because there is so much food and it just goes right through your bones. So why not slip a little butter right on the source? Them bones will soak it right up!


4. Use a straw. Just use a straw.


5. Lastly, listen to Jay Sean's new hit single-Down. Sure to bring the whole family together.



See you back here on Thanksgiving Day for a report on the festivities!

A Debut of Sorts: Straws


Submitted for the approval of the Bones Schmones Society, I call this story "The Tale of Straws"...

The first know straws were made of long, hollowed out pieces of grass by the Sumerians for drinking beer. Straws that you and I are used to nowadays were patented in 1888 by a jolly fellow named Marvin C. Stone. There are many different types of straws. Bendy straws, crazy straws, spoon straws, candy straws, mini straws (for juice boxes), cereal straws, etc. One thing I love about straws is how great they make everything taste. What is with these things? No matter what you are drinking, if it comes through a straw, it is going to be a whole new beverage. I hope you all enjoy straws as much as I do.

your new friend,

Mike

p.s. I want to note that this week is full of holidays...
