Thanks, Meekie! Now you have more mail! :^)

[Pippin]

Hey! What's with the girls in towels!?

They aint got nothing I aint got! SHEESH!

[WVNan]

Looks like it's only you and me, Pip. Where is everyone? Is there a ballgame on?

[LadyX]

May I crash this party of - one?!!
LOL

[Pippin]

Not that I know of.

[Pippin]

no, but you can crash the party of two! LOL!!

Good evening, LadyX!

I'm watching the President and Mrs. Bush at the Kennedy Center Performance on CBS, Nan.

Had a wonderful invasion yesterday by three grandchildren - Aubrey is 20, and she's a sophomore at the U of South Carolina - Kyle is 17, and Morgan (granddaughter) is 12.

Today's treat was my sister, Anne, and her husband stopping on their way back to Florida!

No Liberals in the bunch..:)))

[LadyX]

Bravo for your staying power, Pippin - and a tardy Happy Birthday!
I know you are loving having time in your new apartment to truly enjoy it.
May your life there be full of love and joy and happiness, my dear.

[Pippin]

Thanks for the headsup, Lady!

[Pippin]

Thanks!

[LadyX]

Did you receive a lot of snow there for Christmas??

[Pippin]

Not much of an accumulation. It was mostly gone by the evening of Christmas Dayu. We still have a little bit on the grass yet. but it warmed up a bit since then.

[WVNan]

HI Maggie! Glad you're here. I was posting and then going over to the news. Sounds like you had a good Christmas, especially with no libs in attendance.

[WVNan]

We also had a dusting of snow on Christmas day, but no accumulation. Cold as the North Pole though.

[LadyX]

Yes, Nan, I was praying for Infinite Patience for you each day, and Enlightment for The Others..:)))

[Pippin]

Who had Meek's post at 379 removed?

[WVNan]

Thanks sweetie. It almost worked. We made it from Monday night to Wed. night before the argument broke out. I don't know what triggered it, but they started in on Christianity; specifically Jerry Falwell. My daughter attacked him with such viciousness I had to remind her that her attack on Falwell was far worse than what he had said and showed far less tolerence. That got the ball rolling. There's no talking to them about religion because they have swallowed the party line. I closed the discussion by stating that I couldn't argue religion with anyone because I know too much and can't get down to their level of ignorance. Everyone tried to put on a brave face for the rest of the visit. We had breakfast together at Bob Evans yesterday and they went back to Boone. Thank God they only come once a year. Am I awful to feel this way about my own babies? I don't know them any more. I keep wondering where my babies went.

[LadyX]

I hadn't been here on the thread yet, Pip, so I have no idea what was there or who removed it.
Came along after Nan did.

[Pippin]

It was a picture of some women in towels, not really offensive or embarrassing. it was tastefully done. But someone must have thought it didn't belong on the FR's Finest. But Meek would never post anything offensive. So I can't understand why it was removed.

[LadyX]

Ah, yes - those wrinkles in life do happen.
Had an unfortunate one myself, generated by a daughter-in-law and - well, getting her way, as usual - old story, repeated over and over.

Like you - LOL - I stood my hallowed ground..:)))

Think we are less able to put up with nonsense, don't you?
And - are we not entitled to that as 'Venerable Ones?'??
