Thanks, but we're not having much luck on the football field are we?

[lodwick]

No, but the helmets are cool.

However, that does not get you a lot of scoreboard. ;-)

Nice pic of the Southern Belles. That's a long stretch from the blue jeans that we wear now. :)

Hi, Gail, To put the graphic on the left of your text (or right), all you have to do is...... inside the html command, AFTER the file name and quotation marks, skip a space and then type in align=right OR align=left whichever side you want it on, and then close the bracket. If you put that command at the BEGINNING of your next paragraph, it will align itself to that paragraph, and all the text will be beside the graphic. Just practice WHERE you add the command to get the results you want. :)

Hi, Meekie - trust your dad is doing better each day?

Howdy, and thanks. It's the craziest thing. His arm and fractured neck don't give him any pain, etc. - except the inconvenience of the neck brace, and the hand being out of commission (use). But he apparently pulled a muscle in his shoulder blade area in his back that gives him fits every day. They did x-ray his shoulder blade in Colorado and found nothing broken. I'm thinking that it will smooth out in a week or so. I remember when I was in a motorcycle accident in 1977, I was sore all over for three weeks before I could get around without pain, etc. Of course, I was 23 years old then, too. Dad is 71.

His hand and arm are a mess, and they are doing another skin graft on the back of his hand tomorrow in Tyler on an Outpatient basis. We have to be there at 2 p.m. and surgery is scheduled at 4. He won't be able to eat or drink anything after midnight tonight. Because of his shoulder blade/back pain, they did say he could take his pain medication as needed though.

Will try that. We are creating a Veterans in our Family page, it is 3/4ths done. I added some poems and info on Merrill's Marauders. We also found a photo of Dennis' uncle Ralph in uniform and posted. Dennis will update the page via FTP when he gets up from his nap...all that weather watching is tiring I guess. I'm under the weather with arthritis for the past couple of days. Hope that improves, it's the pits to hurt from the top of your head to the tips of your toes.

Thanks, Valerie! dutchess sent me the graphic - there were several more of them - poor little things, hanging like that on a clothesline. :)

[Billie]

Well, that's a pretty photo - wish it were larger - can just barely see the 'tunnel'!

[Mudboy Slim]

"I'll drink to that!"

Just another pretty Maggie. :)

[Billie]

and to add to your lovely sentiment, there is no greater gift a man can give to his children than to love their mother.... This is such a lovely thread today!

Hello, buffy - how nice to see you here today! Thank you for coming and for those special words.

[Billie]

MIXER!!! NAN!!!

Hey there, hello you two - gosh, I'm never going to get caught up today either, and I was so in hopes of meetin' and greetin' everyone. : (

[daisyscarlett]

Thanks for the freepmail Nan...I will get back to you later on it...Did not work for me but I have an idea...

[Diver Dave]

Temple Owl's looking for all the dirt.

Looks like Pulitzer Prize stuff here.

Hey, JL. I carried 4 paper routes in my 'ute.' Maybe I could help deliver...

[Mudboy Slim]

Hola, mi amigo...MUD

[Billie]

What an interesting family history, buffy! You know, if you have any photos of any of them, we would love to add them to our growing collection of FReepers and FReepers' families who've served.

[Billie]

Hey, Diver! We're having fun with this graphic, aren't we?!

[Diver Dave]

Hey, Diver! We're having fun with this graphic, aren't we?!

Ooops! I was a lot smaller in my ute. :)

[daisyscarlett]

Is Fairmount Park larger than NY's Central Park? I have never been to Philly but I loved the scenes from the movie the Sixth Sense and Rocky...

[lodwick]

Good afternoon friend - we'll take all the help we can get around this joint. See ya - bbl ;-)
