Cussing is not a bad thing. By cussing you can raise your tolerance for pain in a painful situation, and no substitute words do not work.

I wanna be like him in all aspects (look, management style, general behavior). I'm sure my staff will really appreciate it.

Don't think I would want to commit to the look enough to shave the beard.

I vote you hijack his office!!!!

I found a neat photo of my mom's parents when they were "courting"

[Porsche-poor]

That is so cool!

[GH85Carrera]

Yea, there are huge piles of photos I need to scan.



This is my grandmother when she was a kid having fun. No roads to ride on, just wagon trails.

Those pictures are great, Glen. I wish I had a lot of old family photos, but unfortunately, no luck.

The transport company is planning on picking up the garage queen tomorrow. Of course part of the day tomorrow is supposed to be rainy. Oh, the humanity!

I don't even have pictures of myself as a baby. Nor my parents. My mom said we lost most of them in the war and while coming to the US. And once we were in the US, it was a couple of years before my parents could afford a camera. I have one picture of myself when I was about 18 months. Then none until I was about 4. And then, we only have a handful. They were pictures taken by our sponsor family. My grandfather's house in Vietnam was bombed by the communists. I don't know what my grandmother from my dad's side looks like. Treasure those photos. You are lucky you have them.

the war. damn.

[Jim Richards]

Won't driving her make you recover faster?

Just got an email from the kids school they will not put up an 11x17 poster for his show on the 23rd. I have to get the district to approve it.....$@#%@#$%#$ all the other schools love the fact that they have paid bands going to their schools and make a bid deal out of it. I get shot down by the district its pay back time.

I am indeed lucky to have all those photos. Right now looking at the huge pile to scan I don't feel so lucky.

I have read some family history that mentions a relative getting shot in the shoulder during the civil war. I have ration stamps and tokens from WW2.

Some of those photos are over 100. My grandparents in the photo above were born in 1900. I have some baby photos of them.

Evening Y'all
