We have a Six Shooter which makes me very happy. A “LISTENER’S CHOICE” of Sam Spade (let’s hope he’s taking requests), some sci fi with X minus one, and ending with a new one to me, The Silver Theater and Misty Mountain from ‘39 (sounds great).
How’s it going?
Thank you. A life saving oasis, at just the right moment.
I’m glad, enjoy...
Hi, Vision! I see you’re going to have to find another picture for your intro post.
How YOU doin’? :-)
I am great, back in the flow of everything. What are you seeing on the picture? I don’t get it in the post notification but do see it in the thread.
The picture is a “minus” sign, nothing in it, a big blank.
I’m glad to hear you’re doing well. We’re fine, too. Baby back ribs on the grill, housework and laundry done for now.
Hey Viking, what’s the latest update with you?
YAY!!! My favorite picture! :-D
Yeah, Viking, what’s your status? We hope you’re doing much better. :-)
Jimmy Stewart! Out on the deck now with a cigar and coffee liquor.
Superman? Meh.
“’Americans don’t frighten that easily’. Worth remembering”
Murray just said something cool.
Even a blind squirrel finds a nut sometimes. :-)
If you like The Six Shooter, remember 20th Century Radio plays it and Gunsmoke, Dragnet and CBS Mystery Theater during the Big Broadcast time frame.
We don't give the Big Broadcast killer any hits anymore.
Evening, folks. Had a status quo week, all things considered, other than the perpetual War For The Central AC Thermostat with the wife. LOL She just went to bed, and I’m in need of another beer, so it’s time for a counter-offensive. *snicker* I need to find a place to live where the median annual temperature is about 45. How did your week go?
Viking, that sounds like a very good report! I thank God for that.
We’re just fine.
Glad it was a good week. All is well up here, lots of rain and cool temps.
