Happy Mother’s Day All!

It’s a good lineup of shows and am looking forward to the Quiz Kids with the highlight being the Phil Harris Alice Faye show...

How are you? Will be back later in the show...

[Viking2002]

Evening, folks.

[WXRGina]

Hi, Guys!

Viking, I hope your Mom’s doing okay on this Mother’s Day, and you and Mrs. Viking, too, of course. :-)

[Viking2002]

Mom's doing fine, until she has to get up and put her walking boot on. As soon as the missus gets back from a birthday party, we're planning on buying a new Troy-Bilt Pony riding mower at Tractor Supply to replace the two hand-me-downs that finally gave up the ghost on us:

Then next Saturday, it's time to get down and get medieval:

Tickets purchased; and I have one Pub Crawl pass and stainless beer stein reserved with my name on it.

[WXRGina]

YAY! I’m glad to hear your Mom’s okay, and you have a cool lawn mower and a FESTIVAL coming up! :-D

[Viking2002]

Loads of fun. One of the better fests I've seen:

[WXRGina]

Way COOL!

[Vision]

Evening. Congrats Viking, have fun.

[Vision]

Phil Harris, Alice Faye Ping!

[Viking2002]

I just finished cutting the front yard. In the dark. That’s how bright these new headlights are.

[Vision]

Nice.

[WXRGina]

SUH-WEET!!! :-D

[Viking2002]

Next big ticket: a 50” or 55” flat screen for the living room. The old 42” we rescued and repaired from the fire finally gave up the ghost. We have a universal wall mount over the fireplace mantle, and I have all the wiring hidden in conduit running down the back of the bookcase. Should be hang-n-play.

[Vision]

Tv’s seem cheap nowadays.

Alice Faye sings so beautifully in that show it renders me powerless. Can’t get over it.
