Outstanding! The reason I haven't seen it lately is that I haven't replaced my VHS copy yet. I think I'll take care of that soon!

Sorry you haven’t been able to get through to them. They are very hard to deal with at times. Good luck!! *HUGS*

My sister and her grown kids families are dealing with the crud for a second time since Christmas.

Hope you are all better soon....not fun.

"The Sand Pebbles" - (1966) Steven McQueen aboard a U.S. gunboat in China, during the 1920s.

"The Battle of the Bulge" (1965) - Robert Shaw is superb as "Col. Hessler" (based on Joachim Peiper). Good performance by Telly Savalas, as "Sgt. Guffy".

"Kelly's Heroes" - Clint Eastwood.

I hope you had a great Valentine's Day, Kathy.

Our tradition is that I cook Scampi for Mrs. MacNessa on Valentine's Day. We haven't gone out for dinner on Valentine's Day for over 20 years. I used a new recipe this year - more complicated than the one I had been using, but finished product was was well worth it. Got the recipe online - it's from Emiral.

It says 10 minutes prep. time and 10 minutes cooking. It took me about 15 or 20 minutes to peel the shrimp. Then additional time to cut the onions and garlic, etc.

Nevertheless, it was well received by Mrs. MacNessa - quite tasty if I say so myself. :)

Aloha, Hawaii...((HUGS))...and how are you today?

Really sunny today and pushing 32 degrees, but they say 2-4” of snow over the next 2 days. We can’t seem to keep the trees flocked this year.

Must retire – the 0445 Reveille approaches relentlessly.

The Bugler, his grim visage replete with an evil sneer, already mounts the parapet.

Do poor Tom some charity, whom the foul fiend vexes!

Good night, God bless you, and God bless the United States of America!

Godspeed our Troops around the Globe – especially those in harm’s way – by virtue of their service and sacrifice we continue to live in Freedom!
