Lovely ..... now whenever you find something of interest, don't worry about it, just come on in and post. That's what the rest of us do! LOL

[JustAmy]

Yessss .... I really wish my wolfie Bro was here. He wanted to be here for the opening.

He said to tell everyone hello and he is here in spirit. No, he didn't say he was in the spirits, he said with us in spirit.

Stay out of the spirits, Louie! Get well real soon, Bro ..... we miss you. And you're missing all the fun.

"you'll find the couch sitting on me with it's feet up."

At least it didn't turn its toes up! LOL

[JustAmy]

"Don't tell Amy"



Don't worry, I won't tell her.
I like that racket!!
I think she went for a margarita.

[JustAmy]

LOL .... politically correct this year.

That is such a cute song ... I had never heard it.

Thank you!!!

[JustAmy]

Thank you for those good wishes.

"I haven't been writing too much poetry recently"

What? No poetry .... come by and relax with a cup of coffee or anything else on the menu.
We always enjoy your visit.

[JustAmy]

Well ..... it's great to see that you made it back tonight!

Hope your day was a good one.

[SpookBrat]

I thought it was funny too. I had never heard it either and thought it was perfect for FR. Glad you liked it.

[JustAmy]

We could not ask for better friends than the ones we find right here on FR.

Thank you for posting that beautiful poem.

So happy you like our new place. I think we will be happy here. I hope others find it warm and friendly.

An 80 year old couple were having problems remembering things, so they decided to go to their doctor to get checked out to make sure nothing was wrong with them.

When they arrived at the doctor's, they explained to the doctor about the problems they were having with their memory. After checking the couple out, the doctor tells them that they were physically okay but might want to start writing things down and make notes to help them remember things. The couple thanked the doctor and left.

Later that night while watching TV, the old man got up from his chair and his wife asks, "Where are you going?" He replies, "To the kitchen." She asks, "Will you get me a bowl of ice cream?" He replies, "Sure."

She then asks him, "Don't you think you should write it down so you can remember it?" He says, "No, I can remember that."

She then says, "Well I also would like some strawberries on top. You had better write that down cause I know you'll forget that." He says, "I can remember that, you want a bowl of ice cream with strawberries."

She replies, "Well I also would like whip cream on top. I know you will forget that so you better write it down." With irritation in his voice, he says, "I don't need to write that down I can remember that." He then fumes into the kitchen.

After about 20 minutes he returns from the kitchen and hands her a plate of bacon and eggs.

She stares at the plate for a moment and says, "You forgot my toast."

Bottle Blues

how to chase away
six months worth of blues
transistor country radio
station plays no news

how to chase away
incessant need to think
spend all the money
on top shelf liquor drink

LOL, I was laughing at the joke you posted at #110, but when I saw #112 I couldn't stop laughing.

Did you like the music I posted? I know JR is quiet and rather shy, so I don't expect him to say anything, hehehe.

[SpookBrat]

Yo Franky! Tell Amy to read this. I'm posting some country.

I can't play all the music. : (

I downloaded something over the week-end. They are going to charge me $50 a year. My son said cancel it, because there is free stuff out there but he left before downloading it for me.

I think Jim may be able to help me find something. I have WindowsMedia.com but some things will not play on it.

Woe is me! I enjoy the ones I can listen to and imagine the others.

[JustAmy]

I can listen to this music ..... what is the difference between this one and the one Victoria posted above?

A few years ago, my friend, FriendAnn, and I went to Branson for a week. We saw Charlie Pride .... what a performer he is! Worked his rear-end off.

We also saw Andy Williams Christmas Show and shoot, I can't remember his name ... the Japaneze singer. He was very good and his theater was fabulous.

[Jim Robinson]

Thanks for the great music!

Here's another video I like by Toby Keith and Willie Nelson:

"Beer For My Horses"

Just great!

I'm an old head banging, metal head, former Pantera groupie. I know I'm getting too old for it now because I find myself telling the children to turn that crap down!!! That's a big sign of age; your children's music becomes garbage.
