Well hellooooo Robert. I knew you were out there somewhere? Only SNL or Don Lincoln can talk about the oldest...but am sure that either Toni Rogers or Sally Taylor are the youngest...just can't remember.

If you are the oldest...then please come back more often and give us your wise advice...as many of us...especially me, Happy Jack Hawkins, Sandy McGee (certainly) and even SNL...need that experienced view...

Should I now say (in advance)

Happy Birthday

Robert Norman

the OLDER...EXPERIENCED GURU

Speaking of prehistoric times - yesterday I had a little surprise while having lunch with an artist friend of my wife. Glenda (the artist friend) knew I'd grown up in Oak Cliff, so she showed up at the restaurant wearing her mother's high school senior ring.

Turns out her mother graduated from Sunset High in 1931. Glenda, her ownself, spent a little time in Oak Cliff, but soon moved off to Mineral Wells. She was pointing out the "buffalo" on the ring and I had to tell her it was a "Bison" (there IS a difference).

I took a pic. I'm sure the blurriness is because of the low quality of the ring and not my photographic skills. You can barely make out the buffalo ... I mean bison:

David, when I heard Danny play, or Richard Keathly, I hadn't heard that level of play before. I always wondered where they learned it and from who(m).  As you may recall, I was a "Clyde Boyd" protege....pickin' & singin'. I always regreted not having a first rate instructor.

Richard, A few years ago I played in a Band with Danny Sanches. Really good guitar player. The FOB were from Pleasant Grove. We used to play the same clubs from time to time. I think I'm right about that. If not, I'm sure someone will correct me.

Toni, I received the packet.  Thanks so much.  I'm reading the book and eating Graham crackers with Cool Whip.  I love the "Lucy" card.

You're right John, but it's not from prehistoric days. Free on board is the term used now (at least in my industry).

In my (prehistoric) day, "FOB" meant "Free On Board" - indicating that the quoted price included the cost of loading the stuff.

Ada, I thoroughly enjoyed the article you shared. Thanks!
Jack, I find it amazing that I can extract that innocuous bit of info from my head, yet I cannot remember what I traveled from one room to another to get.

KMG, there is no debating, we all know that you are crazy. As Ada pointed out, FOB is freight on board. It is the cost added to items shipped. Indicates the price will include shipping costs.
Why you have that information is the question.
Thanks for the article, Ada.
Isn't amazing the number of musicians that have come out of our area?

Ada, I too enjoyed the classicbands.com article.  Isn't it interesting the twists and turns performers' careers take?

I am so sorry that my post on 3-10-08 at 8:40 P.M. was such a mess...but if you guys would go back...read the post ever so slowly with a great deal of a drunken slur...you should be able to decipher my communication...I had taken KMG's gravy recipe and was testing it...after I finished...I found myself completely, unbelievably, totally, and unequivocally DRUNK...therefore regarding the written slurred message...so sorry..but my French is old and was never really good no matter what I try to do.

So thanks Toni for understanding...thanks SNL for now "Understanding" what I was trying to express.

I will try not to use KMG's recipe's in the future...they always seem to deal with BOOZE...and lot's of it.
