Anybody Remember Euell Gibbons?...

[Dean in Eureka, CA]

In another thread, on another forum... I Joshed Mike about putting broccoli on his pizza.
He fired right back, about the importance of fiber in the diet, now that we're getting older.
I was "Owned" as they now call it and it got me thinking...
You know, I haven't allways been the "Meat Monger" that several of you personally know about me...
Euell Gibbons used to be my Hero!!!
In fact, I still have a Wild Hickory Nut signed and given to me from Euell Gibbons.
Here's one of his Grape Nut commercials from years ago...

I walked 20 miles (Round trip) to listen to him speak at a local college before I had a license to drive and this was my reward.
I wonder what this would fetch on Ebay?

BTW-That was the only Euell Gibbons Grape Nuts commercial I could find on the internet... My favorite one was when he asked, "Have you ever ate a pine tree?... Well, I have..."

There's not much out there for videos.

I used to love Grape Nuts with whole milk and blue berries.
I think I'll get some on my next trip to thr grocery store.

Thanks,

Rob,
I was wrong in my post above...
It shoulda been, "Ever eat a pine tree?..."

So... What should I do at the Dam?...
23 lbs. of steamed broccoli or 23 lbs. of prime rib?

Bring plenty of toilet paper and a bottle of Beano

Joanie only let me have the chili at our first Dam Gathering... Catch my drift?

Weren't you given orders to stay off the puter? Or maybe it was that we were to keep you off.......... Sorry I forget. Maybe Joanie will forgive if you bring veggies and Prim Rib.
