Oooh, muchas gracious, Cardhulito! :)
I’d love to live in that monastary in slide #4, but I’d have to kick the monks out first. ;)
The landscape is amazing!

Amy, your post was such a lovely way to let everyone know this sad news. Have been thinking of you since the weekend, Lori. I think you know how much we all care.

[JustAmy]

Oh Man ... I went back and read my post ..... it says painful instead of painfree or painless.

I hope everyone knew I made a big boo boo.

Thanks, Billie.

I have had a very busy week.

Hi Billie, good to see ya! I had to be away some today but thought I would check my pings.

I do love that “Good Old Rock and Roll” but I like his ballads most also! I may look into his Aug.19 C.D. coming next month. He is a cutie....Did you know when he was on American Idol, they wanted him to touch up that grey hair and he didn’t want to and didn’t! I just looked at the front and back of the C.D. I have and I love his hair they way it is. He has an excellent, sexy pose on the back....! Has a bit of an Elvis pose!

Hated so much about Lori’s mom....bless her heart.

Wouldn’t you be pouting too, if your brother had a car and you didn’t~~LOL~~By the way many years later when my brother was in the antique business in Columbus, Ga, he said he could have gotten a pretty penny for a car like that! They just closed their business about a year ago! (Sold it)! Their shop was called Charles and Di Antiques. And he said he had that name before Charles and Diana were on the scene!

My mom and dad wanted me to have a big wedding but hubby to be was getting ready for a Caribbean cruise and would be gone for six months and we wanted to get married!

Anyway, the marriage took! LOL~~

[jaycee]

Thank you, dear Kitty! (((Hugs)))

Okay, just watched the YouTube of Old Time Rock & Roll - the pics are of Taylor, but the music isn't. It is Bob Seger, isn't it? Did enjoy it. :)

Yes, the grey hair always stood out. Check out the CD Cover for 'Early Works' - a little Elvis-looking, no?

Hey! Thanks for the directions! LOL

[Billie]

Thank you, Dolly - I enjoy going back to some of the early threads, and it's so much easier to find a particular one when the Hall of Fame threads were posted every 3 months.

I hope your life settles down very soon and the trial is in your favor. Know the turmoil you're going through has to be wearing on you.

[jaycee]

Yes, a lot like Elvis in Elvis’s earier years.

Thanks for the link....have you ‘early ordered’?

[jaycee]

EARLIER....not earier!

[Billie]

I haven't pre-ordered yet - I will, but I'm anxious to see the track listing. With his Post Idol cd, there was a bonus track available only at WalMart, and I had pre-ordered from Amazon, which didn't have it, so I ended up purchasing from WalMart anyway, to get "Hell of a Day" - the bonus track)

I've got to go now - it's time to start dinner. Have a good evening!

[WVNan]

Hi Billie! Yes, how did you find that thread so fast? LOL. I really like that picture of me as a kid. It's the only one that shows my orneryness. I was such a tomboy.

How are you doing? I sort of got transferred over to Amy's place somehow. I don't have time for one thread, much less two of them. I miss you guys a lot, but my life is so super busy these days, I meet myself coming and going. I have really taken on too many projects. It's sort of like, "I've fallen and I can't get up" type of thing. People depending on me and I can't let them down. I sure could use a vacation.

[WVNan]

So, the lower your score the better? This is snarling my brain. I’m 74. Does that mean I’m thinking like a 58 year old? No way! I’m 16 if I’m a day.

[WVNan]

What?! What’s with the dogs, Dolly? I’m out of the loop here.

[jaycee]

By the way Billie, you probably have the same C.D. as I do, because mine has that bonus track “Hell of a Day”. Was that 2006 or 2007? My SIL gave me mine and I thought it was last year but it was probably ‘06.

[DollyCali]

oh yes.. I have a lot of black & white shots my dad took when I was a youngster.. I need to scan them eventually.. good memories
