Naaw...there's always somethin' in season in Texas...even if it's just coyotes and armadillos...got any good recipes for armadillo? I know how to fix a 'yote...

Are you serious?! We went to a big barbeque this weekend, and goat (cabrito) was on the grill! Have you eaten it?

[ATOMIC_PUNK]

UNLESS THERES COOKIES INVOLVED THEN YOU CANT FIND'EM LOL :^}

[Billie]

I'm so glad to see you, Julie. Thanks for coming, and please do come back, ok?! There's sure to be someone to entertain you. ;)

[daisyscarlett]

Do send Aqua some Willie links, Billie. Conway too but he can wait. Willie has more of a universal appeal than Conway, lol... Do you think W will ever have him to the White House to entertain or even to Crawford to entertain?

[Billie]

Ok - Willie's about to visit your mailbox. I don't have any Conway Twitty.

Thanks for the two thumbs up!

[Mama_Bear]

Ahem! Ditto! I am not going anywhere near that.

Billie, if you want me to work with you on Louie's day, I will be happy to, but it really isn't necessary. Honest, I won't feel left out. :-)

Great thread, Billie!! I saw the picture of my husband who was Mama_Bears Dad, and it brought back a lot of memories. That picture was taken in Guam about 1953 when we were stationed there for two years.

[Billie]

Hey - in the old days, you had a smile when you skipped rope!

Well I was YOUNGER then, silly. And 10 lbs. lighter of course.

Hi, how are you doing? :)

[ST.LOUIE1]

Ahem!

Sorry. : (

I know you meant no double entendre.

For a minute there I thought I was on that 'other' thread. LOL!

[Billie]

What do you mean be nice??
I am always nice...
:-)

LOL! Yeah, I guess you are. I just can't decide if you need to wear the zoot suit when I put you in the spotlight or not. :)

Thanks Billie! I saw a license plate at Wal Mart the other day as we were walking into the store. The couple stopped as we crossed in front of them (me with my three munchkins in tow. The woman in the passenger seat waved and smiled at my little 2 yr old. I chuckled. Older folks are always so taken by little ones...Then I saw the plate. "WWII Vet" and suddenly I got this big lump in my throat. I just feel my heart swell with gratitude and profound respect when I see something like that... and here they were, a couple of normal people, waving at my kids and smiling.

I'm probably not making much sense, but the two things just really seemed to get to me that day!

[Billie]

Yes, we are lucky to have them in charge at this time.

Kerry was on Meet the Press yesterday morning, and I wanted to slap him every time he opened his mouth. :)

[Billie]

For that they attacked your motorcycle?! LOL! Disagree with what you have to say so they jump on you for your logo!

[ST.LOUIE1]

Ahem!
Ditto!
I am not going anywhere near that.

Stop bickering over me, girls.

Gosh, it's nice having two beauties fighting over me.

AhhhhhRoooooo!!

Oh....and don't muss the fur. LOL!

Excellent Billie! You are a very talented lady :-) This is a great thread, Love the pictures. Am thrilled that my Dad is part of this. Bumping for all Dads. Thank You so much, I just had to post this:

Say since you were in Guam do you by any chance know what a Boodlefight is? I am posting a picture taken in the Phillipines where a mucky muck General was celebrating with the troops in the Phillipines with a 'Boodlefight".

Lori has good genes and I am happy that Billie provoked good memories for you..Thank you for your time spent as a Military Spouse....

The troops celebrated their success in their operations against the Abu Sayyaf group, led by Abu Sabaya, who was presumed dead after a clash at sea with U.S.-trained soldiers Friday.

Ooohhh! Hey, girls, did you see this post? LOL

Glad to see you, AP! Come back again! Who know who you'll get to 'roast' or 'toast' next time?!

[daisyscarlett]

I am sure he would prefer a Zoot suit over an Elvis suit, lol. If I remember correctly, he does not love ELVIS! (Or did I get that wrong and he is a big Elvis fan? It is one or the other-he either loves him or hates him).
