Comments: Since we're gtng a lot of viewers tda I'm gng to repeat the post I made abt Christie on Saturday, 5-3. If you haven't already, please take time to read it!! Thank you Susan Sunde - - Yours is the first ck.  It came last night! The slot machine should be here Thur.
Place: Friendship Comments: This pertains to Christie Blevins Torbett - - She finished her 6 wks of Radiation & has only a few days of Chemo left. You can still read the Blog her dtr, Amy, updates. http://christietorbett.blogspot.com/ But things aren't great by any means. As you may know, Christie & Bill moved into Amy's house so Amy & her family could take care of her. It's a full-time job so Amy had to quit her job. There are some good days, some bad days and some really bad days! God Bless Amy, her husband & two boys, as they are a loving & devoted bunch! Christie has told us ever since she came out of surgery that she & Eileen S were going to Vegas in May!! She talks about it all the time! But she now understands it can't happen. She can't travel, at best she can barely get around with the assistance of someone. But Christie loves to gamble & playing the slot machines was her favorite! Sooo, the girls & I have been looking for a small slot machine (classified as a toy) to buy her. We thought she could get hours of enjoyment & pretend she's in Vegas! We found one on the Internet. It's like the real thing & even pays out money when you hit 3 Sevens!! It's 16" H x 8.5" W x 6"D. Has a working handle, spinning reels & a light & bell that goes off if you hit the Lucky 777's! It was ordered last night & should be here in 4 days. Because so many of you have asked us, "what can I do to help?" we are going to give you the chance to do so! We want to fill the slot machine with quarters & then give Christie 3 or 4 rolls of quarters to play. Anyone wanting to help Christie can send me a $20 ck and I'll collect them. I'll take them to the bank & get quarters to fill the slot machine. Whatever money is left over we'll give Amy as cash to help buy food or pay doctor bills. Do NOT make the ck out to the SOC Fund. This is separate and it's for Christie. Make it out to: Sandy Lynn & mail to 17250 Knoll Trail Apt.1907, Dallas, TX 75248. I will be the treasurer and Barb, Toni & I will oversee the implementation of this plan. This is strictly voluntary, but so many of you have offered to help and this seemed like a great idea. It will give Christie great pleasure and also help Amy & her struggling family as they care for her 24/7. Of course any amount sent will be appreciated whether it's $5 or whatever you want to give! Every quarter we receive will go to Christie's dtr to help her take care of her Mom and to fill the slot machine, which when it pays out will go to Amy too! God Bless ya'll for wanting to help!!! We'll buy a card and list everyone who contributes so Amy & Christie can see the outpouring of love all of us have for them! Send your checks as quickly as possible so we can get it to them soon! time is of essence!
Comments: Ada - Welcome back & I'm sure you had some catching up to do. Hope your trip to FL was encouraging & that we can help brighten your spirits a bit. E-mail anytime. Sam - There was a Marvin Mullins living across the street from me in the late 50's. I had already transferred from Lisbon to Oliver by that time. I think he had an older sister, Jeannie - ? Next time you e-mail him, pls ask if he & his family lived on Marfa Ave. for a while back then.
Comments: I miss Winkie Dink
Comments: Richard, you don't have to miss Icky Twerp anymore. Go to ickytwerp.net and you can order T-shirts, DVDs and Videos to satisfy your "Ickylust". As much as Icky Twerp, I miss Mickey and Amanda, and Cap'n Swabbie. They just don't make shows like that anymore. (sigh)
Comments: Ok folks, we've talked about a lot of movies, events & shows in our past, but I believe this is the first time anyone brought up Icky Twerp. Just goes to show that everybody can contribute. The sad thing, Bovie, is that not only to I remember Icky...I miss him.
Comments: Richard,,,well it appears that u could have ur own comedy show too..Do u remember "The Ikky Twerp Show".I'm sure I didn't spell that correct, but I hope you & Mary Ann are doing well..Bovie
Comments: Bovie on the guestbook??? Isn't that one of the signs to mark the end of the world??? Must be a impostor. Word is that Bovie has lots of banks, but they have nothing to do with memory. Bovie denies he was ever in Kiest Park!
Comments: He lives. Well hello there Bovie, nice seeing you post. From what I've heard it probably took a while to hunt & peck those letters.
Comments: McGee(PM), You could be another Seinfeld,write your own material and have your own show if the subject is sex and MORE sex...UR a piece of work...UR my own Benedict Arnold,,,Thank God Charlene doesn't get on line..P.S.just remember, I have plenty of Ammo..THE THINGS I'VE SEEN are embedded in my memory banks..C.F.

Comments: Heed the wisdom of the Gru Smith, all that know me! You have been warned!!!! Gee, it feels good to serve a purpose, on purpose.
Comments: Sam, That is German for "gotcha"
Comments: I usually immediately delete spams then delete them from my delete files. Am I the only one that gets emails from people with the subject lines like GILT MOERDOM DER VANDIM? Curiousity killed this cat soooooo. Yep I opened it and ordered a dozen. Not for sure what exactly I ordered, but I gave them J.D.'S credit card number. Wonder if I'm now on a galactical spam list? Thought for the week: It may be that your sole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.
Comments: Sir Jackson, Marvin and I met one Saturday afternoon at Lisbon Elementary. The left field area that was part of the baseball diamond was a great place to play sandlot football. Curtis, Ron Oliver, Ronnie Moore, Doyle Fitzgerald, a score of others and myself used to play almost every Saturday and some Sunday afternoons come rain snow sleet or heat. Doyle brought Marvin to the field and that's how we met. Sarah and I used to live in the same apartment complex with Marvin and Shirley when he returned from Vietnam.We've kept in touch throught out these last 40 years.
Comments: Ms. SNL, she, "Happy Jack, did you heat my McGee spa again, you little Devil"? he, "Wanna see my shark dance"?
Comments: No,No McGee. the girl has your name tattooed on her arm & the guy has Bovie's named tattooed on his behind!!! Don't know what they're saying, but it sounds like the guy is enamored with Bovie! |
