Nos genuflectitur ad non princeps sed Princeps Pacem!
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)

Boy am I late arriving!
Well, I just got home...good evening to you, Sand...((HUGS))
We are fashionably late. LOL!!
G’Day, Janey...((HUGS))...what a little cutie, and getting a treat from our heroes.
God Bless and keep the British fallen heroes.
Nite, Conor! (((hugs)))
Evening, Kathy! And happy Purim!
Good evening, Luv...((HUGS))...been working with my Dad on his computer, writing down the instructions so he can find his VISA statement to print out, finding his old toolbars, etc. His computer installed IE9 by itself somehow. d:o)
I had to poke all over the place trying to find his toolbars and familiar ground for him. I found them by accident and now he can see them. (So far I don’t like IE9.) A lot of the time now he says he understands, but I can see on his face that he doesn’t.
This evening was helping my Dad with his computer. And hoping for no more snow this week. ENOUGH!
Chocolate! Yum!
Hope you get your wish for no more snow, Night Owl. And I completely understand how frustrating working with computers and their programs can be. Think of it like we think of the weather....it’ll change again tomorrow.
You have a point. LOL!
Oh, BTW, it is almost single digits outside. *sigh*
((HUGS))Good morning, Kathy. How's it going?
BTTT

A dash of this...a little surprise, yes? no?...
Wellington College, which was founded in 1853
and specialized in educating the sons of soldiers,
was quick to adopt its own set of colors
for its sports teams.
Its rugby team played in orange-and-black striped jerseys,
while its cricket team sported light-blue caps piped with yellow
— colors taken, curiously but appropriately,
from the ribbon of the Crimean War medal.
Between 20,000 and 60,000 bees live in a single hive.
The queen bee lays nearly 1,500 eggs a day and lives for up to 2 years.
The drone, whose only job it is to mate with the queen bee,
has a lifespan of around 24 days and has no stinger.
Worker bees — all sterile females — usually work themselves to death within 40 days,
collecting pollen and nectar.
Worker bees will fly up to 9 miles (14 km) to find pollen and nectar,
flying at speeds as fast as 15 mph (24 km/h).
The Netherlands are the lowest country in the world.
It is estimated that 40 percent of the land is below sea level.
The Beatles' last concert took place August 29, 1966,
before a crowd of 25,000 people
in the 45,000-seat capacity Candlestick Park (now called 3Com Park).
Although the group recorded together until 1970,
they did not play live in concert after 1966
because of the frenzy and noise of the crowds.
The last song they played — Long Tall Sally.
I've got to make my rounds.
But, you stay right where you are.
Keep the troops entertained and the Canteen clean...
Cause...if you don't...I'll tell Ma!
Come in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee, tea,
pancakes, conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS
PLEASE REMEMBER THEM ....
