I’ll have a lot of time now. Just got back from walking the dog. It sure is nice outside here today.

[luvie]

It’s in the mid-40s here but we have a stiff breeze really cooling things down for being outdoors for any length of time.

Glad you are having a lovely day! :)

[Arrowhead1952]

Good morning Kathy and (((HUGS))).

[Arrowhead1952]

It’s already over 60 here, and just a little SW breeze.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good morning, Dolly...((HUGS))...thanks for sharing your memories. And we thank you for your service to our country.

[blackie]

Thanks Kathy!

Received in an email:

One thing about blokes from Scotland is that their hearts and humor are always in the right place!

Jimmy MacDonald, a City Councilor from Glasgow, was asked on a local live radio talk show, just what he thought about the allegations of torture of suspected terrorists. His reply prompted his ejection from the studio, but to thunderous applause from the audience.

HIS STATEMENT:

'If hooking up one rag-head terrorist's testicles to a car battery gets the truth out of the lying little camel shagger to save just one Scottish soldier's life, then I have only three things to say; Red is positive, Black is negative and make sure his nuts are wet!



Etiam non princeps sed usque ad genua, Principis Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Good afternoon, beachy...((HUGS))...your's is almost over.
I wish we had time to be bored.

Have a good rest of the day.

[luvie]

ROFL! Hubby liked it too! :)

[AZamericonnie]

Good afternoon Conor! *Hugs*

Would it be unladylike for me to ROFLOLMAO at that joke? ;-}

[ConorMacNessa]

Good afternoon, Connie!

*HUGS*

I think not - those Scots are certainly eloquent, aren't they?

I posted some family pics on Amy's Place earlier this afternoon. If you're interested in seeing them, here's the link:

Aloha Doc!

Great photos....great memories too, I hope (personally, I avoid cameras and rarely show up in a photograph).

[ConorMacNessa]

Thanks, Biglook! I've gotten gun-shy in my later years. I've started allowing myself to be photographed again despite my overweight and decrepit appearance - the sons and daughters deserve some kind of record of me, regardless of what I may look like.
