Comments: I caught the last 10 minutes of DWTS and saw Emmett, who is now in 1st place. He still has the moves. I darted between The Voice, DWTS, Monday Night Football and the Rangers until my head was spinning. One of these days I'm going to have to learn how to use all the gadgets on my TV.
Comments: P.S. I lasted 10 minutes with DWTS. Hope Emmit wins.
Comments: Anybody else plan to watch at least the first part of Dancing w/the Stars?
Comments: Now, I heard on the news, that Mitt Romney didn't take all his deductions...! It happens...
Comments: Well, the anon is a coward for not posting her or his name while saying something so ignorant. If you post it OWN IT !!! I suppose we can't expect everyone to be intelligent enough to "think before one posts". But I say if that person does it again they should be blocked for about 6 mos....or until AFTER the election...LOL!!! Good point about everyone takes all the deductions allowed by the IRS.....such a simple thought and maybe it will be a "conversation stopper" on the subject. Is anyone who reads here going to the '62 Reunion? If so...let us know and take photos!! 
Comments: Charlotte, this software identifies the computer and location of posters and, yes, it will block people. That's what's so great about it. However, the "Rachel" anon does post something worthwhile now and then. Jack Hawkins, I know we do. We take every deduction that's allowed. I think most people do.
Comments: I don't want to get in trouble or start any trouble, but I have heard people say this "fair share" statement before. What I can't get anybody to tell me is what is a fair share? Might as well push my luck and ask another question. Is there anyone out there who doesn't take every deduction the IRS offers?
Comments: It's Monday...Life goes on... 
Comments:
Comments: Oh good Diane..I crochet, too, and have made several afghans.. I'll look for your two afghans..thanks.. 
Comments: Ginger, Jana has a crocheted afghan and I have an afghan that is counted cross stitched.
Comments: Baloney like this led to the demise of prior guestbooks. Anons are not welcome. For that we have bathroom walls. Trust me on this one: I know who the Rachel Maddow poster is and will keep it to myself unless it continues.
Comments: Okay...Who is it..? I can't go on like this.. Not knowing...not knowing...not knowing.....  Please, Please Lynell..tell us.. (It was Jud that did it, right..? )
Comments: Diane, what crafts did you two...do..??? I have to know what section to look in... I'm going Member at Large with the DAR, this year... I may not volunteer for another year. I've done the DAR Good Citizen Award for 3 yrs.. I think I'm going to be 'invisible' for a while.. Oh Jud, thanks for reminding me..I left you out of the mix..!
Comments: Bill, you are spot on!
Comments: Ginger, be careful at that DAR house. They're liable to put you to work! Plus, they always have nifty things to raffle off for charity. It's an interesting place to visit, for sure. The bird show is worth it, too. There are a few seats on the lower left (as you enter from the back) that have a little shade. I got sunburned out there last year  .David and I always hit the Greek place inside the food court for a Greek salad -- slightly healthier than fried buttered bacon, or whatever the rage is. It's a great area for people watching. The fair is cleaner and safer feeling than it used to be! I remember it was pretty yucky for many years.
Comments: If you go to the fair this year check out the crafts building, Jana Milham and I have crafts on display. My girlfriend and I go every year, last year we decided we are getting up there to go all day. Really do enjoy it. Not as much fun when you out grow the midway.
Comments: I should say that the DAR House will not give me anything free.. I've never been to that place.. at the State Fair..??
Comments: Okay...Missy Lynell. The OC Boomer date is Thursday, October 11. What luck..! (or maybe Danny Smith planned it that way..?? for all us 'old people'..) And I can just 'whip out' my DAR card or my national number at the DAR house... Good to know..! 
Comments: The State Fair lets seniors in free on either Wednesday or Thursday, so you might want to check the internet. Bottled water and canned drinks have always been $1 at the DAR house near the Marine band performance area. It's about $4 from the Fair vendors.
Comments: If we all 'target' the date of October 12, maybe enough of us 'Oldies but Goodies' will show up with those Boomers...that are only 2 yrs our juniors... maybe it will even be cool..? Who knows.. Not today, though.. The dates...are 9-28 to 10-21..so we've got time.. I typed in State Fair of Texas on FB... I'd like to find a 'free ticket'...I'll look for one of those.. I haven't been since the 70's, so a lot has changed..including the price, I'm sure.. I always enjoyed the 'exhibits', best of all.. Well, except for the time Mike Murphey and I smooched in the Planetarium Show with the Little Old Lady, sitting next to us.. I've not done that since.. I would imagine that a lot of kids have done that..but it was unique at the State Fair.. and of course with MMM, who is married to his 4th wife, now, who happens to be 'very attractive'.. Bob Baker and I share comments about the 'old days', and he was a friend of MMM. Bob was also one of those 'original' Cowboy Cheerleaders with Mary McCord, wasn't he..or does my aging memory fail me.? I call them "Charter Members of the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders".. Bruce Pffeifer..Adamson Cheerleader and an old friend of my sister, puts those early Cowboy Cheerleaders' pictures...up on Facebook, but they're later pictures..since Bruce and all 'those people' are Boomers.. No one has put a picture up of our cheerleaders at one of those games... (Lynell...find one...an put it up.. I know there's at least one, in our annuals..even though I haven't seen mine in years.) Onward...through the 'Hot as Hell..first day of Fall in Texas'..So...what else is new..?
Comments: fAIR DAY,You had to go.free ticket and a day out of school. The young ladies would dance across the stage on the midway to the song Rockin Robin. They scared me to death.Of course all of you senior girls scared me!! 2 things to do now is watch the Marine Corp Drum and bugle band at 3pm and the Bird show. Both have been there over 30 years I'm thinking. Police presents makes it a safe place.Skip the fried banannas..The 1 st week has all of the livestock. See you there!
Comments: Do any of you remember the burlesque shows at the fair when we were children? They were discontinued years ago. I remember scantily clothed women standing outside on a stage and they would try to get men to come in and watch them do their act. Most of the men wouldn't go inside, but liked to see the free preview.
Comments: Next week..Forgot what date..?? I probably can only last 4 hours.. That's okay with me... Type in the State Fair of Texas on FB..or look for their website..
Comments: We'll probably go to the Fair, though my tolerance for such events is down to about four hours now. I remember when I would stay out there much longer. Wish I had realized then that I was experiencing the good ol' days.
Comments: The last picture I saw of Big Tex, he had been updated to a more modern look. Too bad. Didn't he used to talk? Does he still? When does the State Fair begin?
Comments: Hey, Kids...tomorrow is National Hobbit Day (or so FB says)...Go Barefooted..! I've got a headstart... The Oak Cliff Boomers on FB...are meeting at Big Tex, at noon, on October 12.. I'm seriously thinking about going... Haven't seen Big Tex, in person...in years and years..
Comments: Donkey and Elephant are both in trouble with Uncle Sam, who represents a 'whole lot of people'... There's been a good cartoon on FB about that.. We all agree that they're doing a poor job in Washington... It's been going on for years.. Don't blame it on the 'Black Man, who is also White'..in Washington. Disregarding a lot of 'goings on' for a lot of years, through Democrat and Republican Presidents.. 
Comments: What about all the illegals of all countries who are paid in cash? They pay no taxes and their employers call it "contract labor" so they pay nothing either.....there are MANY types of people who do not pay "their fair share" I'm not talking donkey or elephant here just facts.
Comments: From personal experience, I can attest to all manner of people who thought they were entitled to skim income and not report it to the tax man. Shame on them, I say. |
