♣ Happy St. Patrick's Day, Yacs! ♣

♣ Happy St. Patrick's Day ♣

HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey, I have been getting them... I would have to see what the last one I received is. I will let you know after I have a minute to check it (I am on hold with my cell phone company)

#13 was the last one I got

Good Tuesday morning Dan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Have a great day my friend!!!!!

Good morning, Yacs! Hope you're having a wonderful day. http://www.wral.com/golo/blogpost/2593057/

Hey Man! How in the heck have ya been?

LOL @ Yacs..no, the OTHER L. Well, that one too I guess.

You going to the 'big event' Thursday?

Yep, I just found out today too while buying wrapped stuff for their eggs for the hunt. I'm excited, the last one he only got like 2 eggs, we went to Sandy Bottom Park (or something like that) and there were 50 children and 10 eggs. LOL

Think it starts at 3. :)It was a rough crowd and there was so much pollen on the leaves minime turned green. LOL

while I've caught you on here, let's be friends............love to read and you write some funny stuff...........works for me

Thought I was subscribed but have not received one, so maybe I need to make sure. Tops on priority list...................subscribe to bainwaves..............gothcha!! Have a good night/morning/or whenever you read this!!

Good morning my friend and have a great hump day!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was 9 and remember just about the whole thing. Had our box seats along the third base line. Couldn't hear hardly anything at all, but no one really cared. Just seeing them was enough. And I was amazed at the number of girls who fainted. Even my dad was impressed, though the Beatles were pretty much the opposite of the music he liked -- old time country.

And you never even asked ME out!

Job must be going well, you are back with some golo time!!

Nanu, nanu!

How are ya? Are you hiding eggs for your young'uns at Easter? Biting off bunny ears, lol?

Susan

I had a very nice birthday: lots of well wishes, BF cooked me steak and shrimp for supper, had a few brews, just chilled out. About all I can expect at this advanced age of, ahem, 39.

If I could find it, we have a tape that you would enjoy. It's the winning entries to the 1990 Canadian Film Board for the category of animated short films (read cartoons). It has a great variety of stuff, and 95% of it is appropriate for kids. It's hilarious. I should start looking for it.

Susan

OK, I'm there now. Hope your day is a good one!!!!

I am the walrus...........

Now I'm confused. Was the golo screen name Tango???

"What became of the flag? Ironically, we are supposed to burn a flag (respectfully) once it's become dirty."

Surprised it didn't burst into flames on it's own.

I'm not watching, am so disgusted with State I boycott. Plus, foundation going in cabin #2 this week coming . . .

Hey Dan!

Wishing you and your family a very special Easter weekend!

sending this to all my friends...

I started a raleigh based message board and am getting rather lonely talking to myself...please drop in and say hi and become a founding member! lol! :)

I'm still learning the board- I think it has more features than I know about, so as I learn, things shall be added!

http://raleighinfo.myfreeforum.org/index.php

"But I have to disagree on the Stones, unless I have my dates wrong. Exile On Main Street was arguably their masterpiece; didn't it come after SF?"

It was released after SF, in 1972, but was composed of outtakes and tracks laid down beginning in 1968 through 1972, so artistically, it arguably came before SF.

The first album comprised entirely of material composed after the band's exodus from Klein and the UK was "Goats Head Soup," which began the long period of decadence and excess that we've come to identify with the Stones of the 70s through today.

That's my $0.02 worth anyway.

"What do you think of the Beatles? I've heard many people say it has to be one or the other, but that's never rung true. I like them both, although the Fab 4 are definitely tops for me."

I like them, but I stop a little short of putting the "Messiahs of Music" crown on them that many other people feel that they deserve. They did some innovative things and some pedestrian ones as well. All in all, I consider them a very listenable band with an enjoyable sound that's stood the test of time exceedingly well.

"Would love to talk to you some time about having watched all of that music evolve during the 60s; I was born too late. :("

I'd enjoy that. I lived in the UK for a number of years in the 1960s, so I got to experience it from a slightly different perspective. It was a unique time, that's putting it mildly.

Happy Easter!

Good Friday Morning Dan and Happy Easter to you and your family my friend!!!!!!!!!!!

Mornin'. It was OK, watched all the little one's eat and talked with the teachers for a little while. There were 2 other mothers there and that was it. Yeah, we're still good until Halloween for the candy department. I've still got a huge bag left from Valentine's Day. Didn't get the teacher's anything this holiday and usually do. Ooops. They all pitched in together and bought and made the baskets. Will have to get thank you cards this weekend. They are good to the kids. :) They keep minime in check that's fo sho! Have a great afternoon!!

If hispanics of Mexican descent that are in this country legally call ILLEGAL immigrants from Mexico wettbacks - is that racism? I am very curious what your answer will be because I intend to forward it to several of my LEGAL Mexican friends in Arizona that refer to ILLEGAL Mexicans as wettbacks all the time. Oh- and they range in age from kids to geriatrics. Legals refer to Illegals as wettbacks ALL the time in Arizona, Texas and other states that deal with the huge population of illegals. It is not considered racist, it is a term that says: these Mexicans are here illegally. The LEGAL Mexicans DO mean it in a deragatory mnanner in AZ, you can tell by the laws they are passing how inudated they are with illegals and how tired of them they are of them ILLEGALLY entering our country. Does this make them racist?

You're right about semantics, and it does mean different things to us. Richard won't come out here...he is dead serious that he thinks he would be killed out here. Crazy guy, he is a funny man without trying to be. BTW, one of the early loves of my life was Richard's friend - Phillip Garcia.....I can't tell you how many notebooks I wrote Dawn Garcia all over :-) Probably a good thing that didn't work out - he had a hot blooded personality and was my size....I imagine only one of us would have lived to tell the tale. GOD knows our needs better than us, which is a good thing.

Happy Easter to you and your family.

...con't from your Blog

you do have a Friend who fixes such things *wink*

I agree Dan, that pic, and this may seem weird..It make me think of a visualization of Hell. I can't explain it..maybe its the hopelessness, the fire, the desperation..For me, it's Hell.

Yes not a problem...did you get it fixed or still jammed???

"May that Hell never come here again...." Amen...Never again.

Loved your Easter article... I may have a nightmare about trying to locate some exotic chocolate creature. Keep up the good work!

Terri

chocolate pigs? now that is going tooooo far. lol.

ranting yaks....pffffttt....I always thought of myself more of a spitting camel...hahaha...Good to see you. I have been swamped today...

Chocolate pigs, hmmmmmm. Well, there's no telling what else we're going to be seeing as far as interesting confections go.

I became the proud owner of one of those plastic reindeer that "drops" brown jelly beans, courtesy of an after-Christmas sale!

Notice that I said "after-Christmas", and not "after-holiday"?

lol...OMG

Welcome back.

I think you are right...have a good evenng.

Mombo go dogface to the banana patch?

your spam filter probably stopped my last response.

Happy Humperz!

OH Hail no - we had better not get that crud back in this house! I will snap in half. I was sick for FIVE, yes count them, FIVE weeks. I went through two runs of Antibiotics and finally kicked whatever it was that took hold of my lungs. Wanna talk about a momma on the verge of snappin'? Yeah, that was me. LOL Can't handle that again. No sir No how No way. Keep it in your house.

Other then that how are ya? lol Hope you guys get to feelin' better, really, I'm sorry you're sick again...that does suckith!!!
