 Free Republic is the premier online gathering place for independent, grass-roots

conservatism on the web. We're working to roll back decades of governmental largesse,

to root out political fraud and corruption, and to champion causes which further conservatism in America.

And we always have fun doing it. Hoo-yah!

Pretty well...I can't complain. I've learned that it doesn't change much anyway -- LOL!

[apackof2]

I bet you might find pictures in the local library especially if the family that lived there was active or prominent in the community

It would be worth a little research

[RosieCotton]

Not at gunpoint?

Heh...some of these songs I haven't heard in years! This one cracks me up...

Mom and I used to use "Little Blue Man" as a euphemism for guys that couldn't take a hint.

[Paul_Denton]

LOL

[RosieCotton]

Time for me to get to bed! Good night all!

[Paul_Denton]

Goodnight Rosie.

[scott7278]

Time for me to get to bed! Good night all!

Oh no! Good night, I guess.

[carlr]

Possibly,although I`m not sure how to start.The county records system is a maze trying to sort out.
I don`t know if there is much historical stuff in the town library,I have never been in there except this year in the lobby because thats where they moved my voting place to.

[carlr]

Me too,after midnight here and morning is right around the corner.

[apackof2]

Bed time for me....its been a looooooong day

G'Night all

[scott7278]

Good night to you! I probably won't last too much longer, myself.

[scott7278]

Good night, apackof2! Have pleasant dreams!

[Nowhere Man]

Is "Spiderman" still on?

Nope, "The Mummy" (1999) is on now, another cool movie. I just love that Egyptologist lady, she is a hottie! B-)I admire her for her knowledge and intelligence too, I just can't stand women (or anyone) that is "dumb as a box of rocks."

Aside note, my buddy met a girl from the Maritimes in Canada online and brought her down here to love, boy she is "dumb as a box of rocks," long story there. Had to explain what and who "Anne of Green Gables" is and was and that book series and character is to Canada what Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn are to America. I love my buddy likea brother, been hanging with him since gradeschool, but I think in his mind, he is willing to take anyone.

[scott7278]

I just found Resident Evil: Apocalypse.

[Nowhere Man]

I'm good. Cat disappeared again, but I think he'll probably be back this time.

Welcome aboard! Sorry to hear about your cat, I know if that happened to any one of mine, I'd be a wreck. Pansy is the only active one now, she was born in 1987 and she is sitting up like a proud statue.



Pansy, b. 8-19-1987

[Nowhere Man]

Well, I think I'll call it the night, starting to run out of gas. B-)

[scott7278]

Goodnight -- I was just about ready to say that my cats are four (the orange one on my homepage) and two (the black one).

[pcottraux]

If you're reading this tomorrow, since you're gone and all, here's the situation with my cat (Leo):

He's an outdoor cat. Sometimes he likes to prowl the neighborhood at night and come back in the morning. He's usually only gone for one night, but sometimes he'll be gone for a few days.

In a scary situation, he disappeared for 5 days. And during those five days, a brutal ice storm hit. I braved the icy frozen elements in a safari looking for him, but turned up nothing. We were starting to panic...that's the longest he's ever been gone...but this morning, he showed up at our porch looking like he hadn't even been gone.

A few hours later, though, we had to leave so we put him out. He was gone when we came back, but I'm pretty sure he'll be back sooner this time instead of scaring us to death (did he do it on purpose? I wonder...)

[pcottraux]

Leo. You'll notice he has an enormously fat head (you can't tell as much with this picture). He's a funny cat. His chubby cheeks have made him a legend in his own rite.

[scott7278]

That's funny, you pointing out his head. He looks like a sweet cat.
