Speaking of Cherie....

She had a bad day at school yesterday and was pretty down ...

Maybe a few 'emails' might help cheer her up!

AFTER she does her homework!!!

There are worse things old men could be doing on the internet. This forum and my saw are more productive than watching reruns on TV....

 :D I am not sure if there is a trend but have you noticed that men over 50 are easily addicted to scrolling?  ;D

I was born in 1958.

Have not noticed Ron, but now that you mention it I was born in 1959 and will turn 51 next month ;). Must be our good judgement that got us going in this hobby.

I don't know if Cherie noticed but I was in Springfield today and waved when I saw the sign for Drury College.
Ron, you can't be talking old yet.  I had started college when you were born and David, I was in the navy when you were born.  There is one other in this group but I think he is older than me.

LOL David, it has always varied between 10 to 20 posts ahead or behind depending on the time of day. You are just now noticing?  Do you really think I have to worry at 289 ahead  ??? LOL

And don't forget Boraxo and the Twenty Mule Train G.B.!

First home I remember well was a farm house in Nebraska, no electricity, a wall phone with a crank (2 longs and a short ring meant the call was for us) 3 bedrooms and a path.  Had a Wind charger to charge the battery for the radio.

But she is a "coed" now and has to keep up with HOMEWORK instead of us!
