Well, they are not reciting Bible Verses and Poetry to keep sane..or maybe they are. I forgot what McCain said he did to keep sane in the POW camp.. I heard about those kids.. Is there any hope that they will actually get out...?

John,

From what I saw of the story on GMA, this couple has been a couple for many years.  Both of the mothers were on and said they hoped this would also help to bring their families closer together as friends during this trying time.  It was a rather sweet story.  They are trying to get the marriage ceremony approved while in prison also.

You are too much John! haaaaaaaaaaa

Two of the 3 (2 guys and 1 gal)American hikers are engaged!!  The guy wove a ring from his shirt material to give to her when he asked her to marry him.  The other guy will be their best man.

The gal is in isolation, but the guys are together.  I saw their mothers this morning on TV.............their imprisonment is such an awful travesty.

This morning I read a headline which says "Jailed U.S. hikers get engaged in Iranian prison".
 
I don't have time to read the whole story but think it is swell that these American young folks found some "marriage material" in a foreign prison. I wonder how they overcame the language barrier? What are the odds?

Thank you John.  What a nice tribute.  Brooks was quite a photo cutie when he was a little one and you can already see that mischievous glint in his eye ....I really enjoyed seeing him again.

As some may recall, Brooks Barr passed away in January of this year. Yesterday I ran across an internet tribute page in his memory. If this is old news, please forgive me - I had not seen it before. There is a link on the site titled "View Life Images" which presents a neat little slide show covering Brooks' life.

Brooks has a grown son from his first marriage to Beverly Blankenship in our class. Those of you who went to Clinton P. Russell might remember her from Nimitz Dr. in our old neighborhood.

Ginger, "clean" is a relative thing.
 
On the bright side, one can now skate on the Trinity all year round.

On the subject of  RIVERS.... Did they ever clean up the Trinity...? Or does it still have tacky stuff floating in it...?

Johnny, as a good SOC boy, you must use Uncle Ben (A. Matthews) brand rice.  Just follow cooking directions on the box.  I'll always wonder why you threw your phone into the chilly Llano instead of the nice, warm, slow-floating Brazos.

One of you (whose name eludes me) recently posted a comment on Facebook about dropping a cell phone in the Llano River. The water rendered it inoperable. You went on to say that the phone was then packed in rice overnight and the next day was functional again.
 
My question is this: How long should I cook the rice?

I'm sure our President will want to use all three names as part of his legacy. In the future when all those cities name major streets after him, BHO Blvd will sound much better than BO Blvd.

A Democrat member of the Texas Board of Education, objected in the textbook hearing this past week, when Obama's name was introduced into a textbook as Barack Hussein Obama.  She was successful at getting his middle name removed.  That's such brilliant logic that I think we should change all references to MLK, and make them Martin King.  Could have just called him Barry Soetoro and the Hussein deal wouldn't have been a big deal.  He'll know better next time he changes his name.

I recall the depositions I took of non-English speakers.  Sometimes opposing counsel would ask for ID.  This is normal in a deposition, by the way.  It is not profiling.  Many times the witness presented a gold-plated metal Social Security card.  If anyone asks me for ID, I cough up my driver's license that has a, albeit goofy looking, picture of ME on it.
 
Now I don't know about you, but I had to present all manner of stuff to get my SS card at age 16.  It turned out to be some cheesy little cardboard thing with my name in typewriting on it.  I complicated things by getting married, so I had to show them my marriage license to get a new card.  Still a cheesy little thin cardboard thing.  I want to know how to get  a gold-plated card.

Cuz, do not pick on Pamela Anderson.  She did pretty well on DWTS, and I'm sure would make a great citizen.  I'll sponsor her.  The others need to leave.

At least our immigrants from the south have improved our lives with tequila and mexican food.
 
I am far more worried about all those immigrants sneaking in over our northern border. Everyone is so busy complaining about the Mexicans, while the Canadians are just pouring in!
 
Where is all the indignant outcry about the likes of Neil Young, K.D. Lang, Pamela Sue Anderson, Paul Shaffer, Paul Anka, Celine Dion, Raymond Burr, Anne Murray, Martin Short and others of their ilk!?
 
How would you like to wake up one morning and see Paul Anka moving in next door to you? Playing his damn piano music to all hours of the night!
