Zip and Mrs. Zip stood proud this morning to FReep the peaceniks at the Columbia Post Office. Due to a previous engagement DogRobber and I have been unable to counter the protesters the past couple of weeks. The corner has been covered each week, though, by dedicated Americans who refuse to let our military and veterans see only the leftist message from the protesters.
Mrs. Zip snapped these photos for forever fix the images for the sake of history. Thank's to the Zip couple for their dedication.
Peacenik useful idiots.
One man band. When there are two, you get photos!

The post office in Columbia at 511 E Walnut St - which is just about 2 blocks east of Providence Road. Walnut runs parallel to Broadway just one street northThank you, this helps a lot.
Do you recall the North/South street that runs along the back side of Roblee & Laura Stephens Halls?
I'm not remembering Providence Road.
Thanks for your help mgc. I'll bet I could find it if I had the time to wander down 63.

good luck on getting back on quickly. I won't have anybody to pick on until you get back. At least the weather cooperated and didn't rain or sleet. Hope to see you Saturday.

Good afternoon. As promised, here is a little duck hunting story. A city slicker decided to go duck hunting down in Taney county (on the Arkansas line) and spent 800 dollars on the "right" clothes, licenses, cabin on the lake etc. After spending another 600 for a good shotgun and ammo, he set off on his hunting adventure. On the way to southern Missouri, he had a fender bender and got bruised up but rented a car and continued his trip. When he got to the cabin, he found it was primitive, but he was going to prove to the world that he was a great hunter. On opening day, he went to his blind and tripped and fell into the lake, spraining his knee but again decided to continue on. After several days without seeing a duck, he started to wonder about the "wonderful" world of duck hunting. About two hours before he had to pack up and head home, he saw a lone duck flying over. He shot 6 times and managed to bring the duck down.. The duck fell on top of a barn, bounced a couple of times and fell into the farmer's lot. Excited, he ran to the lot and climbed the barbwire fence. Of course, the way his luck was running, he snagged is 200 dollar insulated coveralls and tore the leg out, in the process tearing a hole in his leg. But that duck was so important to his "manhood" that he continued on. As he reached down to pick it up, he heard a voice "What do you think you are doing?". He turned around and saw the farmer. He explained that he had shot the duck and was picking his duck up to take with him. The farmer looked him over and said "that duck is on my property so it's my duck". The city slicker thought about all of the money he had spent and the agony he had endured and decided he deserved the duck. As he again reached for it, the farmer said "since you're so set on taking my duck, let's settle it Missouri style. "What's that?". The farmer said that is where you face each other and kick each other in the ....groin...until one gives up. The slicker decided it was worth the battle and stood up and faced the farmer and said "give it your best shot". The farmer did exactly that and the slicker fell to the ground in agony. After 5 minutes, he managed to get up and said to the farmer "OK it's my turn" but the farmer looked him in the eye and said "Nah, it's your duck".
How's that for a groaner.

Like I said, cable modems are wonderful, well worth the $40 bucks a month. High speed, ease of use.
Dogrobber for Bluesage
P.S. She is asleep, work very much hard this weekend.

Are you thinking of College Avenue - which intersects Broadway? If so, take Walnut street (next intersection) north, and turn left (west). It'll take you straight to the post office.

That's it. Thank you so very much. I don't know if I'll ever get a chance to get down there to stand with you folks. None the less, it drives me nuts when I can't remember things I used to know. (Here in the cornfields of SE Iowa,,, we refer to this condition as CRS,,, Can't remember "stuff".)

Congratulations on you all being done with your move. I did it about a year ago, not much fun. Are you all
going to have a housewarming party with Galleger and his
gang from across the street?

Shoot, this move will take at least a decade! Too much stuff. We will be having one heck of a garage sale come spring, I'll guarantee!
Meanwhile, we will be there tomorrow. The signs and camera are located and unpacked, and the peaceniks have had enough peace for the present. Let's give them heck tomorrow! Gosh, I've missed you all!
