Slicks.

My dad said his gandpa and grandma always called them slicks. And they where served at every meal. I have not heard them called that anywhere else.

I went into a small town diner for breakfast one morning in N.D. Waitress had never heard of biscuits and gravy.

I have never heard of slicks. I never had or heard of biscuits and gravy until I was around 25 years old. I never had home made biscuits and gravy until I was around 30 years old. I should have Diane makes biscuits and gravy tomorrow.

I have never heard it called anything but biscuits and gravy, my Mama made the best and always served proper like every meal, with sliced onions and maters. I'm hungry now lol.


I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

When you think about it, not much different than creamed chip beef on toast........or what my dad said they called sh*t on a shingle in the army. We never had it for breakfast but did have it now and then as a dinner meal. I didn't like it then.......had it for breakfast yesterday.....with a couple runny fried eggs on top.

Oh yeah the ol' sh*t on a shingle. It was on our menu at school back in the 60's early 70's. (It wasn't called that though)!

Just like chipped beef, my dad was in the army and he said in the army son it's $#!+ on a shingle lol.
But slicks are for racing, so that's a new one for me.


Let me sugar coat this

Slicks are what we call smooth talkers to dumb to know they're being insulted when we call them that.
