One d, from my perspective 40 makes you a mere child - in fact you are younger than my kids. Dumb guys are intimidated by independent women. The Princess was liberated before the idea was created. Walk a step behind me?

I've been running to keep up for 48 + years.

Got my subscriptions back. Not quite sure how, but I managed it. Sourland is definately not a computer geek.

AWWW!!!! That's great that you have been running to her for 48 + years!!!! Not many people stay married that long anymore. My parents have been married for 47. I remember back in high school, kids thought we were the weird family cause our parents weren't divorced. I think it's great!!! Mom told me yesterday, that she loved Dad to death, but he aggravates the mess out of her at times. Then she said, Well, I could do worse, cause Lord knows there are worse out there, so I guess I'll keep him.

What I think is the best thing about my parents is the fact my father wrote to his mother the day he met mom, and told her he had found the girl he was gonna marry. It took him a long time for mom to say yes to a date. She said she had decided to make it the most expensive date Dad had ever had. Keep in mind he was stationed at Fort Bragg, NC. So she told him she wanted to eat dinner at the beach. So they drove to Wilmington & had dinner and walked the beach. Well back then it was like a 3 or 4 hour trip, not like today when you can get from Fayetteville to Wilmington in like an hour and a half. They had to rush back to Ft. Bragg so Dad would be back for reveille. Dad decided to let Mom drive while he tried to take a nap. Well Mom missed a turn and they ended up in a ditch. While Dad was pushing the car out of the ditch, he asked Mom to marry him. They dated 2 weeks and eloped. They have been together through thick and thin since then. They even still hold hands in public. They make a great pair!!

Orps, I think that snake ate a rat that was stealing your eggs.

 

[bluesub]

Or maybe a snake that ate an elephant?

 

[sourland]

C'mon , bluesub, they don't make elephants that small.

Do they?

Didn't you ever read the "The Little Prince?"

 

[sourland]

Didn't you ever read the "The Little Prince?"

Nope, somehow I missed that one.

I'm here to annoy/aggravate you.

*poke* do you have cookies?

 

[bluesub]

It's a great little book by Antoine de Saint-Exupery. It's a very deep book, but in the beginning a little prince becomes exasperated when no one sees that his drawing is a boa constrictor that swallowed an elephant. The adults think that it is a hat.

In your spare time, Sour, you would enjoy this book.

Do you need brownies? I can toss you some, but I need to know which direction to throw from Pennsylvania...

 

[sourland]

No, no it doesn't work that way. When you come to visit you must bring the cookies or even better brownies. (Several of the Elders are brownie addicts.)
