LOL! We have a 7A and a 7B now. OK!!

John Mayer is from Fairfield.
Born in Bridgeport
He was one of my faves too. Until he admitted to lying about military service.
Yeah, Bridgeport hospital. Never lived there, though. Any way, have a great day. Let’s hope we get our country back in November.

7A. b. places for business and careers in America
7B. c. Raise a family
Good Morning All! Two rallies, another beautiful day.

My mother made fuses somewhere in the Waterbury area during WWII. She went back to work at an artillery shell plant around Burlington, New Jersey during Vietnam. I had an uncle who lived in Waterbury and worked at Scoville Corp. They manufactured a hell of a lot of stuff in that area.
Great post!
History is in the making and we will all look back to these days many times in the future and recall these memories to our grandchildren.
The win in New York has changed the character of the race, and the character of the man leading. Trump is a born leader. He is destined to be our next president.
Hear! Hear!
We’ll miss you, NIKK. Hurry back!
As a 12 year old boy in the mid 1960s I saw a picture of a young Gene Tierney in a magazine, and thought she was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen.
I saw him in Levittown Pa at the shopping center.
Rules say you have to post just once all the correct answers in order, but since is the first time for the contest, we’ll let you slide, and declare you our first winner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was said that Gene Tierney was the great love of JFK.
He wanted to marry her, but she was divorced and papa Joe
said no-it would ruin his political career if he married a divorced Roman Catholic woman.
Our Trivia Buff exit82 won our contest today. He didn’t follow the rules, but that’s ok this time. He got all the right answers.
I think it would be proper that he repost all his answers in one post so we can make it official.
Coming to Bridgeport Klein memorial? Lowering standards isn’t he?
