Wife having hand surgery that day. Doubt if she'll want to be there. Have a great time.

Jotted onto calendar!

Jamie, I am still (surprisingly) in the land of the living so am making plans to be there this time. Not being a drinker I will restrict myself to the snacks but, as will be evident when you see me,...

I went to Applebee's for their free Veteran's Day dinner. When they seated us they asked if any of us were veterans. When my BIL and I responded affirmatively they gave us each two Veteran's Day...

Biker, I have come down with a rather severe cold and will not be making the meet. This is quite disappointing to me and I hope that we can plan another meet once I rejoin that class of humans who...

I'll mark it on my calendar and hope I remember to look at it.

This is true but the "woof" also plays a small but significant role.

Could that be Grady, by Dalgliesh?

I use the free software provided by the LDS Church on their website. It easily allows me to make a gedcom file and also backups. There are flaws in it, as there are in most any other such program,...

Not to put too fine of a point on it but ALL USA Kilts are made in the USA by Rocky, owner of USA Kilts. :)

I was astonished, some years ago, while using the resources at an LDS location, to discover that a lady whom I have known all my life was, instead of my aunt, actually my mother. :) When I pointed...

Yep, it is almost impossible to start your genealogical research too early but it is so easy to wait and start it too late. Sigh.

It would be great to see a larger turnout. It would also be nice if we could find a place with the same type of atmosphere but not quite so noisy or crowded. Guess I am just letting my age show! :)

Don't know much about the machine but that cabinet is sweet!! Unfortunately Georgia is just a tad too far from Washington. :(

This thread is proving really useful to me. I just purchased a Kodi box which enables me to search for, essentially, any movie or TV show, and watch them for free. Now I have a great source of movies...

Despite the lack of modern day special effects, I remain a fan of the older movies. Some of my top favorites are:

The Diary of Anne Frank
From Here to Eternity
The Quiet Man
Green is my Valley...

Thanks very much. Our son gave us some kind of streaming device which supposedly allows us to watch most anything. Looking forward to watching all of Corner Gas.

Some time back I stumbled across a series which, the little I saw, I quite enjoyed. Set in the Canadian prairie and hinged about a gas station/store and a diner. Bit of a comedy. Anybody know the...

Perhaps this could be the basis for a Master's thesis? Very probably a federal grant would be made available.

Have to subscribe to read the story.

Hawk, my appearance tonight is exceedingly doubtful. I have been charged with the supervision of an 11 year old granddaughter for the evening and she is really not much of a person for the pub scene....

I'm hoping to get there.

Quite agree...Great photos. I caught sight of you and your lovely wife (congrats on the anniversary) but you had vanished ere I could reach you to meet you face to face. :(

Our prayers will be for a smooth surgery with rapid recovery.

Sorry I missed you. Always good to meet a fellow XMarker face to face. At least, it is for me. I realize my face can alter that equation quite quickly!
