WV?

[NicknamedBob]

"WV?"

Almost Heaven.

Blue Ridge Mountains.

Shenandoah River.

I had to read it twice before I realized it was like unto being a joke. I have a problem with understanding humor sometimes.

[NicknamedBob]

No doubt the eclectic manner of dress of your many young ones prevented you from noticing the implied embarrassment of the described clothing articles.

Nobody in my family has an Obama t-shirt!

Ohayou! Had a heckuva thunderstorm here this morning. It actually managed to knock out the power for almost a full minute, which is a full minute more than my area has lost power since the tsunami last year.

Daytime temps in the mid-90’s and humidity comparable. Joy.

"Nobody in my family has an Obama t-shirt!"

NicknamedSue and I were looking over the book table at the store last night. She pointed out a couple of new books about 0bama, thinking that I might be interested.

"I'm sorry," I said, "but I have a standing rule to not buy any books with his picture on the cover."

[Tax-chick]

Unnngh. 83 and humid here, will probably rain later. I’ll go look for Jake.

[fanfan]

NEVER tell you mother she’s glowing like a pig...

...because pigs don't glow. ;-)

[fanfan]

LOL!

You got it!

Silly! *HUG*

[Monkey Face]

Wish you were here: 101 today, 47% humudity and 86 when I woke up this AM at 0600. I can understand humidity on an island, but I’m in the middle of a DESERT! LOL!

A tooth for a tooth
an eye for an eye
why did John Booth
shoot that guy?

[NicknamedBob]

Old times there may be forgotten,
But John Wilkes Booth never did pick cotton.

It’s probably a good thing that you two are separated by 3,000 +/- miles. I shudder to think of the carnage that could be left in your wake if you began Bob and Nully’s Excellent Adventure.

"It’s probably a good thing that you two are separated by 3,000 +/- miles. I shudder to think of the carnage that could be left in your wake if you began Bob and Nully’s Excellent Adventure."

A quest good enough for Diogenes is good enough for me, as long as someone else is footing the bills.

The rest of the rainbow, the base of the arch; you name it, and I'll go looking for it.

Mid-month ping! C’mon, you sluggards! Post something!

A lot of you are aware that last year, I asked for prayers for the great-granddaughter of my life-time friend, BonGon. The little girl, four years old at the time was diagnosed with an extremely aggressive form of brain cancer. She was operated on, had chemo and radiation, and was given a trip to Disneyland by Make-A-Wish.

In the meantime, the therapy worked, and she has been learning to walk and talk again. She has had to go for MRI’s every three months, and once the tumor was gone, the MRI’s showed nothing. Until this last week.

The cancer is back. The little girl is now five years old, but she may not make it to see six. No matter what your religious philosophy is, would y’all please pray for this little girl?

If it be God’s Will, she will be healed. But if not, please pray that her extended family with be given the strength to endure.

Thanks to all of you. FR is made up of all kinds of heroes.

If you would like specifics, please FReepmail me.

Your pathways would be strewn with empty bottles of Guinness from Ireland and wrappers from chocolate truffles from Belgium.

Worse than seeing a beer truck round a corner too fast and lose its load. At least some of it could be salvaged...

[null and void]

Prayers up.

[Monkey Face]

Thanks, Nully. For unspecified reasons at this time, you are my hero. *hug*
