Don't you just love that show? ;-)

Aloha, Hawaii and JJ....more story on Elmendorf's C-130s....they are moving to Japan for good. The C-17 Globemasters are the new kid on the block/air base. A spokesman was talking about how involved these C-130s were in the sandbox. Lots and lots of flights.

Good evening to you darlin! I had to re-boot so I'm behind as usual!:) *Hugs*

[AZamericonnie]

Thank YOU for Finally Friday! *Hugs*

[Mrs.Nooseman]

Yup,I do.
I had withdrawals last month, when I had to work over night
and couldn't watch it.

[MoochPooch]

Hi, Kathy. Taking a break in my Passover cleaning to FReep. (Shame on me, but I can't help it.)

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Es...((HUGS))...hope you've had a good day. It's bright and sunny here.

[LadyPilgrim]

Hey sweet one!

Have you had a great day...or what??? ;-)
Re-booting is a pain sometimes...but you'll catch up! ;-)

Now you'll be alright!
Here with FRiends and good music!
And sweet people!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Hey, cleaning is hard work...everyone deserves a break here and there. Good evening to you, Mooch. Are you making good progress? I'm tackling a single closet this evening.

[MoochPooch]

I've got the living room down. Soon my bedroom -- which isn't a problem, since I don't eat there. More like a spring cleaning.

Soon -- the kitchen! (Euh.)

Hi Ma.
My day was okay (you got the afternoon off?)
It was nice sunny day here too, a breezy 75* .

[Kathy in Alaska]

I had to reboot too.....IE decided it needed to quit! BUT....I posted from my laptop, so I just switched. LOL!!

[Old Sarge]

Are you here?

[LadyPilgrim]

I just don't watch tv....but I've just started watching that and LA Law for the first time.
I'm ashamed to say, I've sorta gotten hung up on them! ;-\

I quit watching FOX and any news, after we lost in the election and I don't turn it on any more.

But when I do...it's either A&E or TNT to watch those shows, or the Animal Channel or National Geographic.

Happy 2nd birthday, Kylie Rose!
It seems like only yesterday
that we heard of your birth!

[EsmeraldaA]

Hello sweets.

Here I am.......

[Kathy in Alaska]

Beautiful, bright, sunny day....but still cold. It was in the 20s a couple hours ago, and now it has made it up to just freezing.

[luvie]

You, too?

I had to TiVo it, so am watching it now.

[Old Sarge]

Whatcha think?

[luvie]

Howdy, MY!

Having a good week so far?
