How did you go missing in the first place? Guess a big bump in the road tossed you out. And we didn't miss you until today. LOL

Humph! You were laughing so hard when you hit that bump you didn't even see me get tossed out! Gee, thanks a lot! LOL

I hope you've finally learned to wear your seatbelt. : )

As long as wolfie's driving, I will remember to buckle up!

Les Paul

Mr. Polfus
Lester William Polfus
Known to the world as Les Paul
Tinkered and invented all his life
I met him and talked with him last year
It was the closest I could have ever come
To meeting the likes of Ben Franklin, Thomas Edison
or Nikola Tesla

A life brimming with optimism,
genius, and the never ending quest
"How can I make this a little bit..."
better?"
This life he was given he has given back now

He went home at the age of Ninety-Four
A long deserved rest for a restless spirit
and a journey which has now changed
for the better

We see lots of prickly pears here, but I’ve never seen such beautiful blooms on one!

You can have a piece of me. Anything but my tail. Because you'd probably tie it to your truck's antenna..... and let it flap in the breeze of the dusty old Texas back roads. : (

How did you know?

Pfffft!! : (

PETA will be in touch with you.

As will wolfie. : )

Thanks for today's Memories.
I had forgotten this one too.

Thank you both for this repeat.
Thanks for the memories.



PS:I started this post almost 2 hours ago. ... sigh .... First a long phone call from a friend and then I needed to get clothes out of the dryer.
I'll catch up some time today. LOL

Happy Thursday, Yorkie.
Those are beautiful Prickly Pear Cactus Blooms.
I have seen some cactus blooms but never anything this pretty.
Thank you.

Is today a little less hectic than yesterday.
So far, (knock on wood) no problems with FR.
Sure hope it stays that way.

Enjoy your Thursday.

Great to hear that you are still blowing bubbles, Weinie.

Bet all of your friends at Rainbow Bridge are enjoying them as much as you are.

Good to see you again StarfireIV.

Such wonderful memories for you. Thank you for sharing them with us.

I always enjoyed Les Paul and Mary Ford ...... One of a kind music.

LOL! At the risk of giving you a really, really big head or making you pop all your buttons, I gotta say it: "I've missed you. You are so cute. It's so fun having you pop in to snarl, smirk and/or leer at us again." :)
