Comments: John: Whenever I see Les Nessman, I think of you. I wonder if he had a metal detector or GPS. Oh, wait, I don't think they had been invented back then!
Comments: Memo To Jack Hawkins: I had to Google "Bailey" from WKRP, and I agree that she bears a close resemblance to Nataly. For some strange reason, the only WKRP actor I can call to mind is Loni Anderson. Now that girl could act! Here's a link to Jan Smithers who played Bailey Quarters. At one time she was married to Mr. Barbara Streisand (James Brolin). http://www.celebs101.com/gallery/Jan_Smithers/48067/jan_smithers_photo_7.jpg
Comments: JS, I like that song in the video!
Comments: Nataly's male friend is a hottie. Look at his teeth. I like a man who flosses. On an even scarier note, I looked up an investment today for our annual end-of-year financial reckoning. I put a decimel in the wrong place and am happy to report that we have over 288 million dollars. Guess this means lots more friends, obscure relatives crawling from the cracks in the walls, etc.
Comments: John, Nataly reminds me soooooooooo much of Bailey of WKRP fame. (She was my fav)
Comments: Charlotte I think those curtains/drapes double as a shower curtain!
Comments: John, that video is fun and I love the music...but oh those drapes...er uh curtains....or what ever is in the back ground...WHOA!
Comments: I was going to wait until tomorrow to wish everyone happy holidays, but -- since there was a server problem -- Happy Holidays!
Comments: Yay! It looks like the guestbook server is back up and functioning after its little hissy fit. Happy holidays and safe travel, everyone!
Comments: Before everyone gets totally immersed in the Holidays, I want to wish each of you a Merry Christmas and a safe and prosperous New Year. We've lost some great people this year and we must keep them and their loved ones in our prayers - especially during this time of year.
Comments: Lynell: I'm up for a Canada trip if Johnnie doesn't want to go. Joan and I rode the bike up there 3 years ago and it is a great place if you can avoid the rude French speaking Canadians. We even got to meet the Prime Minister. We're such celebrities.
Comments: Understated, monotonal singing? John, if you like that, you'd really enjoy a road trip with me to, say, Canada. David and Dru could sit in back with their iPods.
Comments: One of the hazards of watching too much TV is that you run the risk of suffering from "commercial overload". As an example, how many times have you seen the zany Hyundai ads featuring a guy and a girl singing Christmas carols as the scenes change around them every two seconds. Those drive me crazy! BUT ... The two in the commercial (Jack and Nataly) really comprise a musical duo that is a big hit on YouTube. They call themselves Pomplamoose. I find Nataly's understated, monotonal delivery to be kind of engaging as in this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9KMgg7T_sg
Comments: Hey Larry! Good to see you posting too. Yep, that Clyde could run couldn't he? I remember chasing him down the street on Vanette Lane. I was carrying a broom to bang him with it. He narrowly escaped, but I can't remember why I was chasing him..haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Those are the fun memories! Merry Christmas to you too.
Comments: I couldn't believe it ... last night I found myself rooting for Jud!? Let me back up ... rooting for that guy on "Survivor: Nicaragua" who goes by "Fabio" but his real name is Jud Birza. Of the five contestants left in the finale, Dru and I felt like Fabio was the most deserving and were pulling for him to emerge victorious. Contestant Holly was deserving, too - but when Jud won the final three immunity challenges, that pretty much sealed the deal. I really felt sorry for Jane who got thrown under the bus by her own alliance group. It was the first time I recall ever seeing someone told to their face "You're getting voted out tonight". At least she won the $100,000 prize.
Comments: Phil Allen and McKinney area is really growing. Regarding your question . . . . from my personal observations, 30% of the population are Yankees and people from the Midwest, 25% are tree huggers from California, 40% are illegal aliens, and the balance are native Texans. Good to hear from Clyde, he once tore me up in a race during our middle school days, really fast for a white boy - seems like Clyde and Henry were always surrounded by good looking women. John, been keeping up with your "findings", just waiting for you to hit it big and I can move in with you and Dru. And to all of you good people, a very Merry Christmas and continued health into the new year!
Comments: Clyde, thank you for your update! Congrats on the grand child and thanks for the compliment, but I don't think I am younger!! Or, were you talking about me? haaaaaaaaaaaaaa!! If you get to Houston to visit....I would love to see you and your family. I am in Houston part time. Are you still running with lightening speed? Merry Christmas!
Comments: Visited my niece,sister-in-law great nephews in Dallas yesterday. I say Dallas actually Allen Texas. I couldn't believe the traffic and growth! We ate in Mckinney, not the Mckinney Texas I remember. Who are all these people?
Comments: He's making a list. Checking it twice. http://www.noradsanta.org/en/index.html
Comments: Thanks Lynel, I hope everyone likes the pumpkin mousse as well as we did. BTW my daughter took Monica's cornbread dressing to her co. party @ Firewheel mall. She said it was a huge hit, none was left, and everyone wanted the recipe. Yeah I think I did good with Monica...I think it's called "marrying up"
Comments: Vanette lane and the younger lady with the golden voice. So many wonderful memories. I am on the East coast in Virginia. Working on our 30th anniversary. One son in Houston with my grandson and an independent daughter in Connecicutt. In good health and hoping never to see snow again. Hey, life is great.
Comments: Clyde......how great to hear from you..Vanette Lane!!! Where are you? Are you married, have kids, Grand kids??? It is so fun to hear from you!! Thank you for the update on Henry!! XXXXXOOOO
Comments: Sharon, Shoveling snow at the moment. I caught up with Henry a few months ago. He is getting better, but gets tired easily. I will try not to get lost and maybe get caught up with everyone. Will the snow is not going to let up, back to the shovel. Clyde
Comments: Clyde, where have you been? Thanks for the update on Henry. Maybe we'll get both of you back for the 50th. That would be great.
Comments: Clyde, welcome! It's nice to see your name on here. Please come back often. Thank you for the update on Henry.
Comments: Sharon, I spoke with Henry a few minutes ago. He is out of the hospital, resting and doing well. His vioce is strong. He is in the phone book. Reading comments and saw so many familar names. With all the memoies, I feel 18 again. Hope everyone is well and still causing heck.
Comments: Went metal detecting at McDade Park this morning with my pal Wayne and associate Rudy. After my meager find of only 6 coins, I packed up the Miata and headed for home. Along the way Rudy attempted to console me: "Look at it this way, John", Rudy observed. "It isn't about did you find a ring ... or did you find silver ... or even how many coins you dug. It's about the feel of the blustry wind whistling around your earphones. It's about the crimson leaves of Fall dancing around your feet. It's about the camaraderie you share with that guy detecting 200 yards away on the other side of the park who found 4 targets for every 1 you found. It's about ..." I pulled the Miata over at FM 1488 and kicked Rudolph out in front of the Valero station. Wayne's find of 28 coins: http://people.consolidated.net/swsw/12-15-10_finds_wm.jpg My anemic haul: http://people.consolidated.net/swsw/12-15-10_finds_js.jpg
Comments: Thanks Martha and Cynthia. I wish I could have attended but had a prior engagement. Looks like fun was had by all
Comments: Oh, my, yes! Barry, I am so sorry about Joan's latest break....she cannot get a break can she? Is she on Calcium?? Hope so. BTW, I think the squirrels were thanking you for your kindness toward their kind...it was joy! |
