    I can't wait to video tape the reunion. I know that people (some) may get annoyed when they see the camera, but I'll give it a shot just the same. Wish we could have had a costume ball. Love them !!

    BACK UP JOKE OF THE DAY

    Blind Man

    Two nuns are ordered to paint a room in the convent which is
    being renovated, and the last instruction of the Mother Superior
    is that they must not get even a drop of paint on their habits.

    After conferring about this for a while, the two nuns decide to
    lock the door of the room, strip off their habits, and paint in
    the nude.

    In the middle of the project, there comes a knock at the door.

    "Who is it?" calls one of the nuns.

    "Blind man," replies a voice from the other side of the door.

    The two nuns look at each other, shrug, and decide that no harm
    can come from letting a blind man into the room. They open the
    door, and a man enters.

    "Nice boobs," says the man. "Where do you want these blinds?"

    Dirty Quote of the Day by Willie Nelson:

    Once you have yelled and screamed at your friend on an unimportant matter or even an important matter, you must admit you are a fucking idiot and apologize immediately.

    Geri, save them to photobucket and then you will have the code to paste on here.
  • janet m horan

    To make it easier to find in order to upload to www.photobucket.com save them to your desktop. When you're finished, you can drag them to the trash bin so they don't take up space on the desktop.

    I remember that my father used to watch a lot of (it seemed like a lot at the time) western movies on Saturday afternoons, especially Gary Cooper.

    We used to watch Sky King, Tales of the Texas Rangers, and a few other great shows on Saturday morning.

    Wait until the reunion !!! There will be so many pictures that we will have to post them on a different site so we can fit them all. We can create a site just for them. I can have my son put it up.

    How come it never took off.....
  • janet m horan
    janet m horan
    Yes Jim. I remember that plane crash very well, but we were too young to hop on the 7th Avenue bus and go see it, and it was too far to walk to.
