Hi Everyone....Anthony-where do you have find these great stories? Terry-how are you? Jeannette-glad to see you on....hi to Debbie, Suzie, Karen, Joe& Warren...I have to tell you-as someone who has lived far away from Brooklyn for so long-I can't thank you guys enough for letting me have a little piece of Brooklyn back...I'm 900 miles away-I only have my kids here-been here so long-and I can see the strong bond everyone has with each other-it is amazing. for some reason in the 24 years I've been here-the relationships I have with people here can't compare to the relationships I had back in Brooklyn...Good times or bad times..it doesn't matter...everyone cares about each other-that's what counts...some will disagree-but that's ok-that's what makes the world so different-if we all agreed with each other-what a boring place this would be...and as far as I'm concerned if any one wants to vent GO AHEAD.....it will make you feel better and get your blood pressure down!!!!! LOVE YOU GUYS!

ANTHONY UMBRIA wrote: MY LIVING WILL
Last night, my kids and I were sitting in the living room and I said to
them, 'I never want to live in a vegetative state, dependent on some
machine and fluids from a bottle. If that ever happens, just pull the plug.'
They got up, unplugged the Computer, and threw out my wine.
They are SO on my shit list .....
Anthony - That is too funny!!!!
Hi Jeanette - How are you? Glad to see you back...
Hi Patsy, Anna, Debbie, Terry, Suzie, Karen and anyone else that was on..
Peek in later -
Getting ready for the last day with my friend...
Everyone behave while Big Momma is gone I don't need any more pressure.
You kids be good and have a good tome tonight. Laugh and love each other so when I come home i have something to look forward to. Something forward to read.
Pray and put angels all around my boy driving home to see Marie. He is very upset but we will get through this like we got through everything else.
Now BE GOOD AND HAVE SOME FUN. SEE YA LATER
LOVE YA BIG MOMMA -
i ll be watching you!!! -

Okay Terry. I take humbrage (what ever that really means) to the "we are Italian" line. Where does that leave a Scotsman like me? Wait a minute. I like Pasta & Sausage, I like Pasta & Meatballs, I love Pizza, I adore Lasagna & Ravioli, Do not stand between me & a Meatball sandwich on a loaf of hero bread. Genoa Salami & Sopressta are my favorite cold cuts, sounds like there might have been an Italian Gigilo sneaking into one of my ancestors bedrooms????
That is how I feel. I can come here and put my heart out heart and u guys listen.
We have good times and bad but we are a family and we have each other.
I hope Jeanette comes back..
We are italian most of us and another word for Italian is Drama and food. lol
Hope u r feeling better Umbrai.
Maybe I was too dramatic but it was what I felt am feeling. Sorry
Keep smiling Terry -
Anthony-Keep your sense of humor buddy! Loved your stories today.
I read last week that someone stole your Flag & Flagpole. Did you ever consider putting a Motion detector that would turn on a spotlight near The flag pole? I think you can get them with an off and on switch so you could just turn it on before going to bed. You could also look into it turning on a recording of a viscious dog barking. At least you would have the satisfaction of scaring the hell out of the theiving *@#^+

finally got my car back today, was driving a little rental, just about to figure out where the wipers, lights. heat, defrost was on the rental. now i have figure where they are on my car......talk about senior moments.
my cd player in my kitchen was skipping,so i went to wall mart to buy the cleaner. they had one that said 6 brushes and one with 2 brushes. so of course i got the cheap one, 2brushes.when i opened the pack there was no brushes, im thinking what the @#%$.WELL IT DONT COME WITH BRUSHES AS I KNOW THEM......GO FIGURE......LOL -
Jeanette, I thought it was obvious that my little take on the Italian bit was just some fun. I mentioned yesterday that I am not thin skinned. Could not have made it growing up in the slope if I took every jibe seriously. My block had every nationality there is and we kidded each other about our backrounds all the time. Today if you kid someone about there ethnicicity(??SP) they get all bent out of shape. Right now the only person in the world I am annoyed at is my brother In Law because he is a lazy #@$%* that sponges off his mother.
Anthony that is great news on the medical front. You are on the right track when you take one problem at a time. It can be overwhelming when you try to take all the physical ails on at once. Keep up the good work!!!
