Comments: C'mon, Martha. You've never been thrown out of a classier joint than this one. It was that kid Lonnie and his wide lens that did it. Blame it on him!  Mike, if that thing's a Garrett, it has to be good. You will have so much fun with it!
Comments: To Geo Johnny: Wife is going to surprise me with the Garrett metal detector for Christmas. However, I won't use it till the spring-thaw, since our ground will be very white and about 6" to 8" additional cover till then. Can't wait to use it.
Comments: Yup, we got a lot of pre-Halloween snow on 10/29. However, it melted pretty quick where I live in PA. If anyone watched the Penn State football game, you saw the storm pictures, OMG. Back to normal this week.
Comments: It is not the first time I have been ask to leave somewhere. Happy Halloween to all my SOC friends.
Comments: I had a speedy reply back from The Guestbook. It was that wide photo that had stretched out this format, so I deleted the picture. Sorry, Lonnie and Martha. Maybe Lonnie will crop that picture and repost it.
Comments: I e-mailed The Guestbook people, and hopefully they will fix this haunted format soon. 
Comments: AND the Northern Lights have gone bonkers, and it's snowing on Halloween in NY!
Comments: COWABUNGA! What in the name of Ernest P. Duckweather is going on? Rangers choke, Aggies lose, Cowboys suck...what next, are they going to close the Crest Theater? At least my two fantasy football teams, the Weenie Dogs and Duck Farts (no, not potty humor, see Red Dog Salon in Juneau, Alaska) are hanging on. Next thing you know people will be charging for water and air....never mind.
Comments: This Guest Book format just keeps changing.....BOO everyone!
Comments: That same scary witchlike person flew by my house earlier in the day. Cats are still under the bed!
Comments: Rangers fans, stop sobbing and check out these ultra high-res photos. You can zoom in and find yourself in the stand if you went to a play-off or World Series game! http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/ps/y2011/gigapan.jsp Thank you, Carol Moore Monk!
Comments: The Rangers should have won the series. They had several changes to end the series in Game 6, but they didn't take advantage of them. What a big disappointment for Ranger fans.
Comments:  I can't go through what we went through last night!!! C'mon, Rangers!
Comments: Don't count the Rangers out yet, Phil. This is only the second time that Carpenter has started on three days rest. The last time, in the Division series against the Phillies, he only lasted three innings. Rangers will be motivated tonite and will mash Carpenter.
Comments: Last night was the Rangers best shot and they blew it. Now they have injuries and will be facing Cards best pitcher. 
Comments: Happy Belated Birthday, Ginger Hearn!
Comments: After last night's game, I can't watch the Rangers tonight. Felt as if I had been run over by a train. Hope everyone has a great weekend.
Comments: I remember that girl. Was she from 64 or 65?? I can picture her but can't remember her name.
Comments: I worked with an older Southern Belle who'd say, "Now I mean this in the essence of kindness" just before she'd say something horrible about a person. "I say this in the essence of kindness, but I declare that girl is so bowlegged she couldn't catch a greased pig in an alley." 
Comments: Genteel ladies of the south would never say that...I think the "Pea Pickin" is T E F for sure...I remember him saying that. Of course, my Granny did pick her peas and I helped her sometimes. Now, Terry's grand mother did say, "Poor thing. Her taste is only in her mouth. Bless her heart." haaaaaaaaaaa!! Well, the word declare does make sense in that instance for Spanish...they are declaring...but so was my granny...she was just not sayin what she would like to declare...ha ha!!
Comments: Charlotte, How about "Bless their little pea picking hearts" or was that limited to Tennessee Ernie Ford? "I do declare" is interesting because in Spanish the verb to give testimony under oath is "declarar".
Comments: I swan, Bosko Haas, those Rangers about gave me a sinking spell last night. It must have been exciting to be there in person.  Tell that quack Proctor to beam some mojo up to St. Louis tomorrow!
Comments: Go Rangers! Of course it is a southern thing...Yankee "ladies?" would not have been as genteel or as refind......ahem! haaaaaa!! Or so I've heard...Bless their hearts!
Comments: With the World Series teetering on the brink, the Texas Rangers were in dire need of help. So, last night, if you were paying attention, you might have seen the good Dr Proctor in the crowd working his usual magic. Rangers 4-2, just what the doctor ordered. Rumor has it he was there with son and grandson. Well, I swan.
Comments: Skip, I just saw on the internet that I swan might have come from "I shall warrant," as in "I promise" or "I do declare." It all means the same thing as I swear, and no Southern lady would swear (when someone could hear her.) It's a Southern thing. Northerners don't swan or swannee.
Comments: My mom used "I swan" and "swanee" all the the time.Must have been a generational thing.
Comments: Thanks Kathleen (and Bill). Maybe we can bring back "I swan" because it sounds better than some potty mouth girls I've overheard!
Comments: Lynell, I asked my linguist husband what "I swan" meant. He said it means "I swear". There are two ways to say it "I swan" or "I swun". The ladies knew that they weren't suppose to swear, so they said "I swan". I remember my grandmother saying it when i was young. Bill said he hasn't heard anyone say "I swan" since the fifties..
Comments: Charlotte, Granny Garrett would have said I swan or I swannee. I wonder what that means, the Swanne River? This was the deep south, so maybe that was it. But she lived very close to the Tennessee River in N. Alabama. I swannee, I wish I knew what it meant. 
Comments: Sandy, you kids from '66 know how to rock it! You all look spectacular. |
