If you have a baby on the way, bought a new car or house, found out your kid aced his SAT, are having a good harvest, caught an excellent fish, or have some other happy news please post it. I am so depressed and sad for my country, and I don't know ANYONE in person who has had anything nice happen in the last month. Not one person.

Fred is not lost. He did some time in detox after being pulled behind us from New Zealand to the Marquesas to the Galapagos, but he is in fine shape now. He is currently hovered over the barbie preparing lunch for us.

The Houston Dis-Astros should just forfeit any post-season games should they every win the division or earn a playoff berth in the future.

You have to sympathize with the Houston sports fan. The only bright spot for the last 20 years have been the Houston Rockets, but that only lasted a few years.

You are absolutely right about that. Bye Yankees!

My sister is flying in from WA state on a plane, and NO her arms are not tired! My 7 yr old daughter is learning the Presidents of the US in school, she has been memorizing not only their names, but dates of office and their accomplishments (or in Clinton's case, well, well just leave it at his legacy). Anyway, she came up to me the other morning and told me she thought McDonald's has had to be around for about 100 years, and so I asked her why. She thought it was named after the president at that time who was in office. She said it was named after President Ronald McReagan.

giggle......

FallGuy has such a great sense of humor and he has been very grateful that I have made such wonderful friends on here. He calls the guys Snow Bunny's big brothers.

LadyX....."Captain ofMagog, don't say "Cough it up" when near your cat!"....... ROTFL.... how true.

In a way, I liked it better when the Braves sucked... I'd go to 2 or 3 games a year and would always get good seats and it was a big thrill when they actually won one! Now, they're expected to win so its a letdown when they don't.

You guys (Houston) have got a good team... a lot of teams would like to have gone to the playoffs 4 of the last 5 years. We'll probably see you guys there next year. Stick with 'em because every team (except the Cubs & Red Sox) is due to win it all eventually!

Cooooooool. If you make it to OK you'll have to show it off.

Would someone who has two working arms start a Thread 2 and post a link? Seems this is bringing joy!

Not too difficult when you're a monk that doesn't do drugs.

"OH Mr. Snow Bunny registed at FR last night and even had me to his little profile page, heh heh. He is screen name....FallGuy"

Hey, Fall Guy, welcome to FR!!
I couldn't help but notice that when you're darling wife mentioned your profile page that she used the descriptive term, "little".
Women always have this hang-up about size being the most important thing!
We men know it's the quality that counts!

YEAH !
Thanks, jackbill. I couldn't remember how to say that!
In the Corps they used to show movies to try to discourage the misuse of our "guns".
They showed this big guy with a baseball bat banging on the affected member to relieve the pressure.
Made a believer out of me!

"On a less shallow note, I know that I am ready, no matter what comes...and that is the "happiest" thing I can report. To live is Christ, to die is gain."

I thought that needed repeating.
Thanks.

"do you think COB1 and the guys will curb their flirting with Snow Bunny? "

Now you know that we were only flirting with Snow Bunny so that we could get an extra ration of her delicious Spam burgers.
That's my story, and I'm sticking to it!

I vote that before we put to sea, we get Fred a new pair of skis and stock up on Spam.
We might need a case of those LITTLE vienna sausages, too, in case Fred meets some more of those pole pruning pirhanas.
