• April Fool's Day What'sUP April 2 - 01:10 pm

I received an unexpected treat Friday at the Calumet Post Office: A large envelope packed with Thank-You notes from the students of the Jeffers School. A week earlier they had a field trip to Michigan Tech's Keweenaw Research Center to experience this year's Clean Snowmobile Challenge. Pasty Central and Pasty.NET provided a lunch of pasties (of course) and some refreshments for all who attended.

Wish we could scan all of the thank-you notes for display here, but I grabbed a few just to give you a glimpse of their memorable field trip:

Dear Pasty.net, Thank you for the pasty it (was) so good. I could not of lived if it was not for you. ...D.M

Thank you for the pasty's they were delicious and good. I was hungry for them and starving all day. Thank you again. Sincerely, ...B.S.

Dear Pasty.net, Thank you for the tastie pasties. I learned that the snowmobiles are battery-powered and gas-powered. My favorite part was the Ski-doo snowmobiles. It was sweet. Thanks again. ...B.N.

Dear Pasty.net, Thank you for the good food and drinks it was good. My favorite part was the sleds. I learned that the more you drink the more you got to go. ...R.B.

Toooooooooooooo funny!!!!! I like the part about 'flushing' the line. I am laughing so hard I am crying and really cannot see what I am typing. But this is a hoot. Even funnier then the 'beaver problem' post on johndee.com.

Again people who live out in the country get the shaft. First we can't get cable internet access, then to far from the central telephone office for DSL internet, now because I have septic tank I can't get TiSP. Will I guess I will be stuck with the same old service.

These kids have the right idea, I ate my last pasty the other day at work and ran out of Ketchup. I thought I was going to die. Time to make some more. No one down here understood why I was tearing apart my desk looking for any loose ketchup packet I could find.

Gee........I thought you were sleeping in this am Charlie!!!!

Cute, cute, notes

I looked at this tisp thing.....how weird....suppose it doesn't work for the old drain fields....%^(

I am a heathen today....didn't go to church....God Bless

I gotta go get a pasty. Is Lehto's open yet on US-2? That is the nearest purveyer of quality pasties for those of us below the bridge.

There's one even closer... For delivery to your door you can order genuine, lovingly handmade UP Style pasties anytime here at Pasty Central. They are safe to refreeze, so now you can always keep some on hand.

Charlie, the Google TiSP is hysterically funny April Fool's joke! Thank you for passing on a great laugh!

For those who weren't sure if it was for real or a well-done joke, check this out:

Real Pasties are in Clawson..........but you gotta find em......they have only been mentioned about 10 times before........GREAT

I got the part where the one kid likes his with ketchup. Not me, I like 'em O'natural. I know, I haven't tried the Pasty sauce.

As a retired teacher, I love the thank you notes. One of my favorite things about teaching. Sorry we never got to thank anyone for PASTIES, tho'!

All points bulletin I was just installing my Google TiSP and I let go of the spool, if anyone is looking down and sees a cable end go by try and grab it and give me a call.
