Comments: What happened over there? The 62 site? Did I miss something? You guys/girls talk about cats, we have one, Sneakers, a Russian Blue, so that makes it much more fun. Ours is a therapist. He just seems to know when he needs to help.
Comments: That looks suspiciously like a typical Woodlands back yard!
Comments: In an effort to bring relief to the discord running rampant on the Class of '62 Guestbook, the following service will now be available after dark on Mondays through Fridays. Email me for directions. ![]()
Comments: Are you including your hair guy and yourself on that list of crazy things?
Comments: Me and the guy that did my hair decided we had to go to San Francisco in 1966-67 to live. Drove my MGB all the way out on Route 66 and it was still great then with crazy things to see along the way.
Comments: Charlotte: Buddy seems to be doing fine. Her leg is healed up nicely and she can sit up to eat. Until recently, she would have to lay down on her elbows(?) to eat things she had to hold. Both of her last offspring (Bob and Spook) will come eat out of our hands. Bob is DDHD or something, and is a hoot to watch. Jumps sideways and turns backflips for no apparent reason, other than to amuse himself. Spook (a female) is very skittish and more predictable. Buddy will humor them unless we are feeding her and then she shows them who is boss. We have 2 hawks in the big tree in the backyard, but so far, they don't seem to be interested in anything but doves. Thanks for asking, Barry
Comments: Thanks for the memories John....I loved that series. You are right........sounds like cool adventures ahead! Hope you are feeling better! Barry, how is Buddy?
Comments: We've been on a lot of Route 66 and most of it is pretty sad now. Time pretty much forgot about it or tore it up and put an Interstate where it used to be. The Interstate system was the death of many small towns across the country. When we take a long bike ride, I program the GPS to stay off the Interstates unless doing so would add days to the trip. JS, are you on the mend? My post about guns and the mental hospital sure ran everyone off! I'm really pretty sane unless I'm talking about politics.
Comments: Barry, on a lighter note - it's funny how certain tunes or melodies link us to particular memories or feelings. Here is one that always gives me a sense of adventure and independence ... and a bit of envy. Any of you recall this theme song? http://tinyurl.com/2cy5p6v
Comments: JS: Don;t like to see you harbor those notions of death. I was at the ER a couple of years ago and The nurse asked me how bad I felt and I told her that before coming to the ER I couldn't decide whether to go to the ER or just shoot myself. YOU DON'T SAY THINGS LIKE THAT IN THE ER! She wanted Joan's phone number so she could get the guns out of the house. "What good would that do? I have one out in my truck." THIS WAS ALSO NOT A GOOD THING TO SAY. I did get to meet a nice lady from the area mental health hospital. Ultimately I did check myself into the mental health hospital and you meet some really strange people there. I was only there one night and was in a room with a guy that had attempted suicide. I did still have my gun in the truck, but thought it better not to tell him! I learned that if your longtime family doctor is out of town on vacation and you need to see a new doctor-plan on a couple of months for an appointment. The way around that is you just go to the doctor's office, look really sick and tell them you are not leaving until you see the doctor. If you get a little loud, mother's will grab their children and leave. That's when you get to see the doctor. So JS, be careful, but if you need the number of the place with the padded rooms, I can give it to you. Just remember to keep the gun in the truck, er, Miata. (That looses a little of the effect.)
Comments: 58 minutes till Mad Men!
Comments: Phil, T said that movie was tedious and a waste of time...thought they took every opportunity to put every movie ever made it it............haaaaaaaaaa!! But, he did say it was nice sitting in the cool theater on a hot Sat afternoon.
Comments: Martha, onion dip with potato chips, pork roast and potatoes, creamed corn, Jell-O salad, chocolate cake, brandy, Dave Brubeck on the hi-fi. DVR is set in case I fall asleep before 9:00 after that meal.
Comments: Lynell, my cocktail shaker is ready and TIVO set....bring on Mad Men. Yeah!
Comments: Just saw the movie ' Inception', you must pay attention and it is very long 2:36 ![]()
Comments: Good grief, Caldwell. How big is your house if you've lost your wife in there?
Comments: OK, I've officially lost it. Just texted my wife...and she's somewhere in the house with me!
Comments: ...bottle of Valium ... Betty Crocker cookbook...can of Adorn... Nah, just gearing up for the premiere of Mad Men tomorrow night.
Comments: Renewing your vows?
Comments: Let's see. Springolater shoes, cocktail dress with cinch belt and full skirt, pitcher of vodka martinis, carton of Winstons...
Comments: Well, the good news is that Dru can drive okay, and that John is on the road to recovery. The bad news is that they will receive bills for the next six months from unknown doctors for that ER visit. Good luck with all those drugs!
Comments: What I've got isn't life-threatening ... just makes you wish someone would step up and shoot you to end the suffering. This morning at 12:30am my symptoms escalated and Dru had to drive me to the local Emergency Room. It was the first time she's dared to drive since her June 1 knee replacement. We were there from 1:00am to nearly 4:00am (a long story). Back at my doctor's office for more diagnosis late this morning. I have a truly bad, bad case of bronchitis with an eye infection thrown in as a bonus. Can't sleep, can't stop my faucet-like nose, can't breathe when the coughing cranks up. The Doc prescribed a "metric buttload" (I think that's the medical term) of 5 medicines and 2 inhalers for me to take over the next 30 days. Dru is happy to know she can drive again. Now she'll be the caretaker for awhile. I just want the coughing/hacking to end.
Comments: Southworth, get up outa that bed. Lois beckons you from the Science place in Houston. Do I need to Fedex you some chicken soup??
Comments: I hope Dru doesn't remove the pinstripes or the neon lights!
Comments: I have it on good authority that Dru has John heavily sedated while she redecorates the house, and has the Miata repainted...pink.
Comments: He probably got sick at my $10 offer for his treasure maps. I was just trying to get him some return, and help him avoid getting lost in the desert somewhere. Get well soon cuz. I know Farouk is missing your evening drives around The Woodlands with the top down on the Miata and the undermount light tubes a glow.
Comments: Our buddy JS has been sick as a dog. Got an e-mail last night saying that he has barely avoided the grim reaper. Probably got some ancient disease from that treasure book, or perhaps a curse. I know that the curses are real because I have seen stories on TV and movies about them. Johnny is on the mend and as soon as the exorcism is complete, he will be back.
Comments: My guess is that JS is parked at the Houston Science Museum, eagerly awaiting Lois's emission of the aroma of a decomposing corpse. This is to remind him of some of them loosey-goosey Kimball gals he used to squire around the local Dairy Queens. Rumor had it he plied them with vanilla Dr Peppers, cherry Cokes, and the like. Charlotte, I need a property manager.
Comments: JS has not said one thing to run anyone any where except maybe after the bulls in Spain or after treasure." Look to thyself and get over thyself" she said sweetly. It was 50* here in the Rockies this morning, but then got up to a scorching 77* by the afternoon. Rain storms come through nearly every after noon. They last for about 20 mins then blow on through. They bring a nice cool breeze with them. Forgot to tell all you applicants that we have a condo mgment co that care takes, cleans etc. Afraid you are out of luck in those categories. LOL!
Comments: Sam: I think JS is on a treasure hunt. An e-mail and a phone call were ignored in the last couple of days. One can only hope he has found the treasure. I hope word does not get out that "W" actually drove himself, unescorted, to Fort Hood after the shootings to visit the wounded and the survivors of those killed. He left only after being ordered to do so by the White House. Obama, meanwhile, scheduled a photo op some time later and didn't even visit the wounded. Now there is a man of true passion. Only problem is, HIS passion is destroying our country. Have you ever noticed that after all this time the English spell checker does not recognize the word "Obama"? I guess you have to get the "M" version. Time to go listen to Mark on the radio and get some inspiration from someone that really cares about our Constitution and our country. |
