about oldrebel

Going down that long lonesome highway
Bound for the mountains and the plains
Sure ain't nothing here gonna tie me
And I got some friends I'd like to see
One of these days I'm gonna settle down
But till I do I won't be hanging round
Going down that long lonesome highway
Gonna live life my way

One of these days I'm gonna settle down
But till I do I won't be hanging round
Going down that long lonesome highway
Gonna live life my way
Yes I'm going down that long lonesome highway
Gonna live life my way

Long Lonesome Highway  \*/  Michael Parks  [Then Came Bronson theme song]

Thanks for stopping by. I heard there was more bad news today. I don't think it is gonna end well. Hope you are doing ok.

Soooo....are you saying I should visit Aberdeen then??? lol That was a very, very bad joke. The bf actually works there.

I'll have to look some of these places up and visit them. Thanks for the ideas!

Sorry darlin if ya went by I missed. Stop by sometime. I am sure we will be outside more once the weather warms up some.

I totally understand about cracking jokes about it and it also being like a train wreck... lol

Hey Baby Love :)

Just looked at your Mother's Finest pics again. Brings back memories of the younger, wilder days. :)

Hope you've been doing ok.

Hey, thanks for the friends request. I didn't know the kids but it was just a couple miles away. So sad. I live in the stone house near Antioch Baptist Church on on 421. We are flying an 8' x 12' flag in front of the garage. The other evening I saw a big man in a bright t shirt riding a bike past the house. He was riding slow and I thought maybe it was you so I waved but it may have been to late. We will run into each other someday, hopefully not on the road.

LOL Now that made me laugh. You better help me if you stop by. Don't make me hurt ya. LOL nut.

OR, just saw your post on my profile. Yes, we were in the tornado outbreak in 84. One of the most frightening nights in my life! Had thought about doing a blog about it closer to the anniversary, but I'm don't have a way with words like you and some of the others.

Thanks for your advice on doing the blog. I'll probably put it on paper first so I can edit as needed, then post it on the 28th.

Thanks! Glad you like them. I just added captions if there were any you were wondering about.

Hi Donald! Hope you are doing good! Have a great weekend.

Beth

Hi Donald,

We briefly met at Oakwood one Saturday with the Paranormal Enthusiasts Group. I was admiring and secretly coveting your bike! Just wanted you to know that you're not 'old'; I have a couple of years on you. I did enjoy talking with you even for such a short time and appreciate your blogs and postings.

Best regards, Deborah

Old,

A comment in you featured blog, ‘True Confessions’, reminded me of a line from one of the Star Trek original series episodes, ‘Amok Time.’

Spock: "After a time, you may find that having is not so pleasing a thing after all as wanting. It is not logical, but it is often true."

I believe that’s as true now as it’s always been ....

Ride safe and have a good weekend,

Len (aka STS)

aww, that was very sweet of you, but G-man is doing fine now. you can't even tell he's blind. most people don't notice it, until flops down on the floor with his nose almost touching the wall. and believe me, when i say most people don't notice it, that includes mail man and just about every other man that invades his turf, lol. he's quite aggressive for his size and disabilities. he bit the water man a few weeks ago...right between the legs. not hard, but enough to get him to install a digital meter reader on my water meter...one that he can read outside of my fence.

hey...I thought we was friends? :) hope you are having a great weekend..

Hahaha, i just checked the photo gallery. Ah hahahah. Quarantine, eh? That'll make ya think.

Thanks for the HB, btw. lol, mom said it on the 13th.. Ah hahahaha.

awesome...I was afraid I had done something to you!!!! I am enjoying this rain..I think this is God's way of telling me to stay home and rest. I have hardly went outside this whole weekend..hahaha..take care Friend!

well. i wanted to be sure!! Glad you would tell me up front..I am learning the hard way to speak how I feel.....that is harder than I thought...because afterwards..I feel bad...oh well.tis the life of Deb!!!! take care friend (HUGS)

had to laugh when i read your comment about your place being a halfway home for dust bunnies. Mine would come in as a close 2nd. I retired 6 months ago and still can't seem to get this 'junk' out of here !! But, I'm also my roommate's designated driver , so most evenings I'm not home. luv being retired , thru. Hope you're having a relaxed Sunday. :>

LOL! Sure we can! Hee hee! :-)

Beth

Rebel, The village idiot (your not). The song is sad, and you have been truly hurt. When you hurt every word of a sad song is like a blade going through your heart. Maybe it sounds a little dramatic, but to me it is not. Please hang in there... Warrior.

Hey Friend...You have mail!

sʞuɐɥʇ ¡ǝq ןןıʍ sıɥʇ unɟ ʇɐɥʍ 'ןooɔ

OR, based on the pic on your profile I'm guessing your cat Friday passed away....is that true?

Well then, I am truly sorry for your loss. I know how difficult it is to lose a pet, regardless of the reason. They are family.

That's why my cats are not allowed outside except for the rare time I put a halter/leash on them. I realize that's not for everyone tho'. Again so sorry.

Happy St. Pat's day

that's my dogs name -- but not the Old part.

You got THAT right. I need one.

You told me about your electric experience with Ms. Kennedy. :)You can't tell from those pictures just how amazing she was. I know everytime they were at Roadies, I was there. Ahhh, the good old days. :)

Have a great evening!

hey you and I'm so glad you stopped by. Yea -- I get enough of the "bickering" at home with my own kids. LOL!

Just trying to keep it positive -- ya know what I mean!

Hope you are doing great! I'm on facebook now with a bunch of the other crazy golo'ers -- it's more social there -- not as topical -- keeps it light! :) and only light... as far as I've noticed so far anyway.

Gonna try to catch up with everyone one of these days -- another paranormal outing would be fun! :) Or just some good food and a cold one! :)

I refuse to even go to the doc for my OCD. I'm not hurting anyone..If anything I feel I am making my home safer..lol..I am one of those people who will not take medication unless absolutely necessary. HAVE A GREAT DAY :oÞ

Thanks for the info! It's definitely something I'd like to do. The wildlife club? Is that off of Poplar Springs Rd?

Hey, Do you have a flier about the poker run? If not I'll email one to ya, if so that's good too! I'll be working but my husband is organizing the whole thing,you may know him. I'm glad someone related to this story saw it (you) I didn't know if anyone would respond or not.

Hey if you don't mind would you send me a note when you do your blog? I'm working 7am-7pm all this week and Sat. & Sun. too, don't want to miss your blog!

hey there Reb.. just wanted to stop by, give a wave, and say HI !!! have a good day! ☺☺☺

Waz happenin'? :D

hi Rebel, thanks for the friend request. How are you doing?

morning!!!! if you're online join us for a cup of coffee//./

Awe, wth? What happened to Friday? I thought someone came down to pick him up?

Hey Old Rebel, Just chillin this weekend. Getting ready for a busy next week. Hope your having a nice weekend, and I hope your doing well. Take care. Warrior

"Never read the book, but I thought the movie was pretty darn good!" (Interview with the Vampire)

The book would definitely blow your hair back if you liked the movie. The movie just hit the high spots...

Hey Old Rebel, Glad to hear you had a nice day out riding for a great cause. Im glad to hear your doing o.k.I know what you mean about keeping our minds busy and away from those negative thoughts. I try to do that myself, and its not always easy. I take life day by day and try to be thankful for what I have. You have a good night........

Great pics from the Poker Run. Thanks for sharing them,I guess it turned out to be a nice day afterall,when your doing something to help someone else it always makes for a better day! Looks like alot of bikers braved the weather with you too.

Love the pic. above, Donald! :-)

Hope you have a wonderful day. It's beautiful out!

Beth

Left a note for ya on the moment to moment page! It's about the great success of the benefit I didn't find out how great until a few moments ago.

OMG! I just went to your IG! I remember Bobbi Battista! Wait, that was Adele Awakawa. (I know I spelled her name totally WRONG), but I remember Adele! Heck, I remember Bobbi Battista. LOL!!

;-)

Beth
