Tell the clown to leave a note 'n get on with it - hisownself. Save a tree er two.......

Mornin', y'all,

With a l'il luck it'll stay in the sixties all day. Can't ask for more'n that.

Wonder if the kids can still find steelies. Them's was good shooters. Knocked the snot out the other marbles. Kinda like gamin' up a shoot with mouse fart loads. 'Course I wouldn't know 'bout such things.

Nice visit with the kids yestitty. Stayed a couple hours then headed ta Target ta get Laney a new bike so she can ride on the boardwalk. Don't know if Alex has ever been there. When we wanted a week on the beach when Ali was growin' up we went to Wrightsville Beach outside of Wilmington instead of OBX. I reckon they don't know there ain't a boardwalk there.........  

[Leo Tanner]

Steelies were a prize but the cat's eye was the grail.  It didn't shoot no better but everybody wanted one.  Used a piece a sting for the ring if we was indoors, chalk outside.  Thinkin if I got Spud ta playin it may come back an spread around.  Heck if bell bottoms could do it why not a good game?

Had a monster of a grilled chicken salad last night, nuthin else necessary.  Course there was some bacon in there an dried up bread cubes with a good dressing.  Fergot ta boil a few eggs but it was just fine as was.

Don't remember ever playin' indoors, outside we drew a circle in the dirt.  I say a kid playing marble a couple of years ago, indoors, on a computer, sittin' in a chair.  Hard to get kids outside to play these days unless there's referees & uniforms involved.

That's true but we played when it was rainin.  We did the circle in the dirt too but marbles rolled better on the side walk.  Almost put a kid's eye out once...

[Texas Lawdog]

We aalways played Marbles in the dirt, there were no sidewalks on my street. It's been raining since about 11 am. A good day for sleeping in and Victoria is taking full advantage of it. More rain forcast for tomorrow. The front yard looks like a fairway.

That sounds suspiciously like a comment someone who plays golf would make.  WM

Amen, complete absence of accountability.  Problem for him is the folks where is goin don't see things that way.

Pulled pork is a favorite.  Reuben ta win, Philly cheese stake ta place and pulled pork ta show.  We's havin fried cabbage with beef an sauage an assorted peppers.  Should be good.

Mornin All, praying for those in need. 

Thanks fer the Cawfee, got up early an when it was time fer Lil ta go the garage door wouldn't open.  Turns out some idiot that wears cowboy boots busted it by havin the spare tire rack open when he hit the button.  Said idiot got the thing open manually and will be spendin some time taday gettin it workin proper agin, just glad he didn't make his wife late fer werk.  She was panickin somethin fierce.

[Delmonico]

I am on the air again, didn't work earlier, been on the phone with a good ol' 'merican tech.  (Internet Nebraska uses them) Had to reset in my computor, he walked me through and had a laugh a couple times when I'd tell my helper to quit likin' my ear.  Had it on speaker phone and he'd tell me something and Rowdy would answer him.

[Leo Tanner]

Shoulda called me, I coulda broke it worse fer ya.

[Leo Tanner]

Sent ya a PM.

That'd be kinda strange lookin'. Woulda needed one in .356.

The fat lady'll go inta spasms when the power goes out, don't care whether the door's up or down. Lost count ah the times I showed 'er how ta snatch the rope ta disengage it from the opener. Got POed at 'er once, opened the thing 'n backed 'er car out inta the drive then shut the door. Tolt 'er she didn't have it ta fret over then.

Funeral was short. Saw a second cousin I ain't seen in years. Fact 'is he remembered the last we'd seen one 'nother I was in K-9. Got thrown outta K-9 January of '80. The man standin' with 'im was 'is son..............

[Delmonico]

I carry one of those 1st grade type pencils cut short in my watch pocket at work for marking my # for commision, think it would be real close.
