As for fonts size, I usually press CTRL and the + key in order to increase the size. Makes the print more readable.

Hi guys Warren I’m glad you enjoyed that book.it was awesome!! Just wanted to pop in & say hi to all. We’re expecting some snow tonite. Everyone, have a great night!!
-
Finally warmed up here in Sunny Florida. I am having a lot of trouble with side effects from an anti-cancer drug I am on. Will see my oncologist tomorrow. Hope he has some answers.
-
Get well Goat! That was some Super Bowl - great win for Philly. The weather is cold here in the Twin Cities but our hearts remain warm.
Take good care!

Hi guys How is everyone?? Warren I’m on waiting list for NYPD RED ALERT & FIFTY/FIFTY both By Patterson. Just finished reading 2 Danielle Steel books. Ive been busy this month with work & enjoying family & friends at different functions. This month is flying by too!! Easter is just around the corner.. Early this year on April 1. I’m not a patriots fan per say, but I did root for them this year. It was a great super bowl game.. one of the best i’ve seen.. I think it was a disgrace that Philly fans would destroy property & loot In their own Community after they won!! Imagine, if they lost? Ok, just wanted to say hello & have a great night!!
-
Hey Patsy, those Patterson books soundgood Sorry, can't agree with you as far as the New England Cheaters are concerned. I do not condone violence for any reason but I would root for the Devil before I would root for the Patriots. Baseball will be upon us soon. Spring training has already started down here. We are cool in the AM but the afternoons are in the 80's. If the Yankees can get everyone healthy, they will be a force to be watched! I do not know if the Met's have improved themselves or not. Only time will tell. I still feel lousy and the dr's are blaming it on the Prescription Drugs I am on. Since they put me on those drugs I hope they know what they could do to me.

I am reading a Woods book entitled "Fast & Loose" Carol thought I read it already but I do not think so. Either way I am enjoying it. I have discovered that the well known, big seller Authors write the way I like to read. Afternoons here have been very warm for February. The Spring training should come off real well. Here in the Tampa Bay area we are still wondering who will be left on the "Rays" when the season starts. They have traded or released most of their "STARS". They are looking to build a new Stadium in Tampa and get out of St Petersburg. They have the lowest attendance in Baseball.

Lol, sorry OlderGoat. Have you guys set up a facebook account to touch base when you can't reach each other here? If you need help with facebook let me know, I set up my mom's account and got her going with all her privacy setting on and everything. Meanwhile in NY: http://www.thelodownny.com/leslog/2018/02/this-guy-was-unfazed-after-dodging-oncoming-b-train-in-chinatown.html

Thanks MOD, but no thanks. I do not want to be a part of Facebook. it is a privacy thing and very personal!!!

Hi guys I’m here!! Just so busy with work & family.. Hi Warren. I just finished fifty fifty by Patterson. Good book!! Can u believe he is coming out with a book titled “the President is missing.” The best is the co author for this book Is Bill Clinton! This book should be something else.. His other new book Red Alert is out. I’m on waiting list for that too.. It’s part of NYPD 1, 2 & 3. I enjoyed those books a lot. I hope you’re feeling better by now. Did the doctor change your medicine?

We are in the midst of a nor’easter. 2nd one in a week. It’s snowing like crazy here. Ok, folks Have a great night. Keep posting!!
-
This storm has been crazy: rain, snow, slush, thunder, rain then back to snow. It will make for gross sidewalks tomorrow.
-
Hi MOD IT was sheets of ice this morning! very scary to walk. slow going.. but this afternoon, the ice started to melt. now its turning to slush.. have a great night!!
-
Sorry to hear of your bad weather. Patsy, I am only feeling a little better. Dr has taken me off MEDS that we think is giving me most trouble. We will have to wait and see. There is a withdrawal problem with this med so we will have to wait and see. Having trouble finding the books I want.
-
Hi Warren Hope you’re withdrawals are subsiding with that medication you were taking. Sorry to hear you’re having trouble Getting books u want to read. Enjoy your day & day hello to Carol from me. Watching the Mets vs Houston game on tv right now..
-
Hi Patsy, Carol said hello back at you! I am still feeling crummy. Not sure why. Have an appointment with my GI Doctor on Wednesday. Hope he can find the cause of my nausea. A tree fell on my son's house in Wanaque NJ. Not too much damage to report so far!!!
-
Hi Warren Glad your sons house is ok & no one was hurt!! Well, this last storm was a tease. Snow didn’t stick due to weather to warm & ground was wet from rain that Came before the snow. Have a great night & stay well. Hope your nausea subsides soon.
-
going to G.I. Doctor today. Hopefully he can come up with some reasons and perhaps a solution to my problems.
-
Been to the GI Doctor. Next week he will perform an EGD and try & see what is causing my distress.
-
Get better, Goat!

We had a long Winter here in Minnesota but it appears that Spring is finally around the corner. That usually happens whenever St Patrick's Day rolls around. You know, it's kinda strange - but when I first moved here from God's Country, SPD was not that big a holiday. We would have a half hour parade in down town St Paul, a one hour dinner at the Landmark Center where we sang "Harrigan" and a few other ditties, and maybe quaff a few brews at Gallagher's or other ale houses. Nowadays, the parade is in the much larger down town Minneapolis area and the holiday is celebrated for an entire week. BIG time celebrations, too. Up the Republic! Enjoy .......

While I am not true Irish, some Northern Irish is in my backround. We will have a St Patty party Saturday night here at my Senior establishment. there will be singing, dancing, drinking and eating. Very moderatley on the drinking part!

Happy Easter back at you Patsy. I was beginning to think the Blog was dead. We are still spending most of our time at Doctors appointments. I saw my Hematology Oncologist yesterday. He feels I am doing okay in his field of endeavor. Now if my Cardiology team could feel the same. Having a tire problem with our new car. I get messages on the dashboard telling me I have a tire low on air???

SAD NEWS
This website is closing, please consider joining facebook to keep in touch with each other. I can help anyway I can. http://www.brooklynian.com/discussion/47831/thanks-for-your-many-years-of-support#latest -
Please make sure you have each other's email, if you don't already. I'd be sad to see you all lose touch after such amazing years.

Congratulations to those of you who used to be on this BLOG but have wanted us to switch to Facebook right along. You have won the battle. Especially those who objected to me being on here since I did not come from the exact neighborhood that many of you came from! To the victor goes the spoils!!!!
Howdy, Stranger!
