Comments: Sam, I agree with you. Still, the whole name rule will apply to this guestbook as long as I am the wrangler of it. 
Comments: Not on the internet if you just use your first name! I'm trying to think of any other job where you get fired, and they don't immediately shut down your email, or take your credit card, or take away your expense account, and escort you out of the building.............unless you're a member of Congress who loses your job in the November 2nd election (or a union member). The Democrats have a "lame duck" agenda of about 20 bills, which, if passed between November 15th and the Christmas recess, represent about $415B in new spending. Another $415B we don't have to spend. A bunch of those Dems, and some Repubs are losing their jobs, but they get to come back and spend money like there's no tomorrow........wait a minute, there isn't for them. Outrageous.
Comments: Thank you, Charlotte. Like it or not, Sam, I guess we're all out there on the Internet. I was amazed that along with the old editions of socbears.com, the photos are still there, too, if you're patient. The photo might not show up, but if you click the place holder, there it is! Incredible.
Comments: Wow, Lynell..............I went to that web site........How fun t.o see the ol' SOCbears.com site with your front page. Interesting that it is there............when is disappeared it was such a tragedy..........but now we can go back and read some of the stuff leading up the the 45th. Who knew? how do you find this stuff? Of course, going back we can also see the problems with the anons etc. I am so glad that you require us to sign in with both names. Welcome home Jud! Glad you had a great time.
Comments: Sam, if you Google yourself and you'll see some mentions of your name that have nothing to do with this website. I'm just saying. All SOCites and friends of SOC are welcome to post here, as long as they sign their whole names.
Comments: Lynell, you say that "what is put on the web never goes away". You're right, and that includes the fact that your requirement on this site for full names invites that they'll be on Google at some point. Just try it. They don't do that with first names only.
Comments: I heard of an interesting website on the radio. It's www.archive.org. In the area called Wayback Machine, type in the URL of a bygone website and say Abracadabra -- and there it is! I found the old Socbears.com website in its entirety. What is put on the Web never goes away!
Comments: Welcome home Charlotte and Bill!
Comments: Barry, you and JS should rent a large truck and head south. Think of the gold bars, cannon balls, diamond rings, etc. in that unscanned sand. JS, you should return Dolly Parton's underwire to her.
Comments: Lynell: That IS Dru's spoon! John just put it in the picture to show the relative size of his recent "find". I'm waiting for them to officially close Matagorda Island State Park. That island has a lot of history, dating back to LaSalle's landing on the Texas coast. During the Civil War, there was a Confederate fort there that was captured by the Yankees and then retaken by the Confederates. There were military bases there in both WWI and WWII. We tried to take a metal detector there about 5 years ago, but there were still Parks and Wildlife people on the island and they said "No!". There's no one there now, so I assume that you could take a metal detector there and no one would know. We'll probably need help carrying all the booty back to the mainland.
Comments: Please, Barry. He owes his first payment on the metal detector to the ShamWow guy, and he'll just about have it if he finds the rest of that silverware. Keep diggin'.
Comments: Sam: I only wish everyone would take the time to watch that video.
Comments: John: I'll give you $0.25 for the coins if you'll pay the shipping.
Comments: What a haul! Is Dru going to claim that spoon?
Comments: Had my best day yet of treasure huntin' and bagged 5 coins last Friday morning at Lake Conroe Park. My brother-in-law scouted out the place and went with me to see the detector in action. We had the whole 10 acres to ourselves. On Saturdays & Sundays the place is jammed. At least I can report that my discoveries are becoming more diverse (see pic). That danged curved piece of metal had us digging half way to China because of the strong signal it produced. Also, I think we discovered that silver spoon that Ann Richards claimed was in George Bush's mouth at birth (or was that a silver foot?). 
Comments: .................November Is Coming.................Here's a good video to explain it: http://www.breitbart.tv/november-is-coming/
Comments: Bill, I really enjoyed your photos that you shared on FB. Y'all sure covered some miles. Thanks for sharing.
Comments: Welcome back, Bill and Donna. At last you're home safe from marauding bears.
Comments: Good Morning Everybody! (No posts for two days. I got tired of looking at Barry's name.)
Comments: So far, the new shows are a bust. We tried to watch Lone Star and Hawaii 5-0 and turned them both off before half time. Rubicon has us hooked as does Castle. None of the reality shows are worth watching and who wants to watch a bunch of has beens embarrass themselves on DWTS? At least we still have Lock N Load and the History Channel.
Comments: Yeah, buddy. Give me half a beer and I might turn into Isadora Duncan. Please remind me not to drive and wear a neck scarf.
Comments: Lynell, I think you'd be more suited to "So You Think You Can Dance?"
Comments: The Wheel of Fortune tryout was at Fair Park. It was cool to hang out with Dorothy Malone, and amazing that the young production assistants were clueless about who she was. She went further in the process than I did. She was relaxed and she talked about her grandchildren. I was nervous and have no grandchildren. I was too dull for them. I aced the written test though. Some of those who tried out couldn't spell. Gotta wonder why they went down there on a cold winter night. That's like me trying out for American Idol. Come to think of it, some of those contenders can't sing either.
Comments: Lynelle, I'm impressed that you were able to try out...that is a grueling process! I went early one morning to a car dealership in Arlington to try out for Deal or No Deal...what a fiasco...no I didn't get picked, but I had lots of fun with all the other "crazy" people (hundreds) waiting to get in for their 5 second turn! I love Howie Mandel!
Comments: Claudia, I think everyone fully understands what you're saying.
Comments: Charlotte, what an easy dinner guest you would be!
Comments: I slow drank a bottle of wine. Does that count?
Comments: I slow-baked a hen, cooked wild rice and fresh beets (not together,) and even found some cranberries in the freezer to make a nice sauce as garnish for the chicken. Cranked up the DVR and we watched two minutes of the new but not improved Hawaii 5-0. Then we switched over to Wheel of Fortune -- who, by the way, rejected me for their show because they had already had too many court reporters as contestants. Who better to figure out undecipherable stuff? However, I got to meet a fellow Dallasite contender, Dorothy Malone. She was charming and nice, and we had a delightful chat. The producers were clueless as to who she was.
Comments: Thanks JS, for telling the truth, that's all I really had to say! Anything else I say is just too difficult for some to understand! You are the BEST!
Comments: Hey Jud - didn't you think that Becket lost too much weight over the summer fumning at Castle? She really looked lean and mean last night. Maybe it was her hair. I am sure her wait for you will be longer than her wait for Castle so the poor gal is just in a world of hurt, ya know.... |
