OMG! Never seen that picture of her before.

Made me grab my oxygen mask and melt 2 nitroglycerin pills under my tongue, STAT!

Oh yeah...I’ve gone “9 and 1/2 weeks” before.

Still need that song by Joe Cocker playing. ...

Don’t know about you, but “Being Given a Surprise Seven Billion Dollar (AFTER taxes) Trust Fund” would make me super duper happy! And yes, I could spend most of it in a few months. I would buy a few countries that need buying.

Not bad being she was in her mid 40s when it was taken...

The only three things that really make me happy are:

1) Being an awesome dad to my teen-aged daughter
2) Playing or creating music
3) Sex in an intimate relationship

Which one makes me the happiest? Depends what I did last.

Reminiscing about the past? Doesn’t even make the long list.

Among my top few would be spending time with our grandchildren and the cat purring.

A job finished and well done and another one to look forward to. A neatly plowed mowed or baled field. Getting home.

I know a slightly more adult version of that including a new pair of shoes. LOL

2,040 adults in the United Kingdom

The UK, huh? Home of boiled cabbage and missing teeth? No wonder they're not having sex - and apparently eating chocolate is rotting their teeth.

A warm puppy works for me.

Or remembering watching Charlie Brown with my family when I was a kid on TV.

Interesting concept. I am unfamiliar with the term as a verb. I suppose it is the process of making a scrap book? I have never made one or even seen one except on video.

Combining the 2 would be...... Strange

I agree, I love reminiscing. Wish my cousins would join with me more often for that.

However, chocolate does indeed give me real ecstasy. Well, the best chocs for sure. Sexual things don’t rate that high!

Actually, I love reminiscing but could not care less about “scrapbooking”. I love looking at the old things my mom arranged. But that was when it was only a noun and generally only photos and greeting cards. Not all this overwrought artsy-crafty stuff now. I won’t waste my time doing that.

But I have a very self-sufficient crafty friend who made a terrific “scrapbook” about my pre-wedding ordeals! Loved it.

I like old timey stuff

Got a circa 1882 model 73 winchester. An 1891 vintage trapdoor springfield. A brace of 1890s top break s&w pocket pistols and an1944 bone stock 1911A1 remington Rand. And a original ww 2 Springfield garand.

They ‘all’ go to the range...no safe queens. Yup I like old tymie stuff too.
