Grape Ape is old -- like from the 70s I think. I watched him when I was a kid.

Yea, well....and what are you saying here? I didn't know who he was. LOL!

[Old Sarge]

"Psst, Eddie, how long do we stand like this, I gotta go..."
"Didja HAVE to go 'Pssst'?"

[tomkow6]

I was worried that you might have fallen off your perch....

[Kathy in Alaska]

Everybody is going.

Hurrah!! And we get to go too.

[Soaring Feather]

How kind of you to worry about me dropping of my perch.

[Lady Jag]

            You're the best!

[Old Sarge]

A little adventure is welcome?

[Soaring Feather]

Oh you betcha, adventure is welcomed.

[StarCMC]

Music bumps for 532, 536 and 551.

Hello once again, folks. My sister and I have just got back from Wichita Falls where we shopped for Christmas gifts and ate at the Picadilly.

We have been looking for a new TV for Chuck wihtout any luck. My sister's gone to town to look for a TV.

I think we're gonna have to get the UPS/battery backup sooner or later because we're getting close to the winter season and there's always a possibility of power outages.

Dell has some of those things in their catalogs. I'll take a look the next time one comes out.

I'mgonna go eat some more of this food from Picadilly. It tastes real good.

[Old Sarge]

Gimme a few...

[GodBlessUSA]

Ok, you can bring Kitty and burkas. LOL! Just have kitty behave. No stinky business. :)

[StarCMC]

You got it!!

I haven't been to a movie for years and years, but I just might go for this one......imagine a pro troop movie, the guys and gals who make it possible for the lefties to make stupid stuff. I wonder if it will get any mention by the MSM? Hmmm....

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good grief, now that I'm awake, I need to fix my tune template. Jeez!!

[Old Sarge]

Riding under darkened boughs, the forest close around me,
I came upon a sight to see, to welcome and astound me,

a closed-in bower, a meadow in the forest lit with light,
and before my eyes the Queen's Court appeared in in plain sight!

So many sights I beheld, in the court by light of day,
before the throne, a gyspy-girl I saw to dance and sway,

Slowly I dismounted, and started walking toward them,
but an arrow pinned the ground before my feet as I approached them,

A stealthly elven archer from out of nowhere came,
and warned me, "Only knights so brave, and without stain of shame,
approach The Queen so bold, Sir Knight!" a pretty guard she made,
"Before you pass me, you must reveal to me your blade!"

"My sword does naught but honor," I told the elvish maid,
"the charge that all defenders have, upon our shoulders laid!"

A word of musical voice I heard, "Archer, bid him here,
from such as this one, we have naught to fear."
And there, before the Queen I stood, greeting I gave that dame,
and gave my arm in escort, and to the dance we came,

The gypsy girl, she spun and twirled, and smiled as I came near,
with a wink and grin, left the glade with a spin, and the Queen and I were clear,
and to lute and pipe, and drum and voice, we danced there in the glen,
and music ending, bowing, and taking hand to dance again,

I had come to this place a stranger, but knew I'd leave as friend.

[StarCMC]

Well I think you've definitely won the hearts of the Gypsy girl, the Elf and the Queen one and all!! Nicely done Sarge!!
