Happy 50th Birthday

H-D,

Yeah, I was even amazed that I didn't suffer some anxiety over being 1/2 century old!!!!  After you turn 21, they don't seem to hold much significance anymore. Man time flies when you don't keep tabs on it.  But I did get my AARP card yesterday, so now Denny's is 10% off a grand Slam.

Me too I didn't know. Happy late birthday Wyatt.

Thanks also Blogger, Larry(a-venter)and the rest.  We MUST create a blog-claendar of everyone's b-days so we can  extend out cudos accordingly.  My old-timers just makes it hard to remember them all.

Hey, I see no mentions of yesterdays' luncheon. How'd it go? Or did anyone actually go?  Should have came over to the FOP with us instead. Besides the abundance of roast beef, ham, fresh veggie platters & fresh salads and homemade salsa, there was lots of beer, alcohol,  of course coolers of soda and two deee-licious cakes ( I'm working on finishing off the Triple Chocolate delight today....)  But the best part would have been the price.....FREE!!!

I thought rino was going to be there to meet and greet?

If anyone can/will schedule another one soon I don't have any weekend tied up except the weekend before the election. So if you can pick a date between now and them... I'm game! 

Noeline and I were the only ones to show up for the blog lunch.  It was a blog bust.

Ladies, I wish you two  would have just came along with us at my par-tay. Sorry you wasted such a beautiful Saturday morning.  In fact Angel WAS going to come down before she set up the surprise party and invite anyone who came to join in with our soiree , but after the latest battles here knew nobody would be showing up. Nonetheless,  We had fun, it was relaxed and social. I love partying with cops.  Pretty much knew the future blog luncheons were going to tank since the last one at Tuckers. And with all the hostilities and animosities right here on this blog, it is no wonder nobody wants to show face. EVERYONE SEEMS TO HAVE CHOSEN SIDES AND WILL NOT MEET MIDDLE GROUND. I wouldn't expect or plan on much support for another one ( lunch) the rest of the year.  Too many possible excuses now like school events,Christmas parties, holiday bashes or football games.  Guess Blog lunches have gone the way of the Cocklebur itself;  death by intellectual suicide.

Nomad, Rino was with us other baddies at the birthday party.  (I've said I'd like to meet everyone, but would prefer a location other than Golden Corral.)

NR, did you go to the oyster roast?  It scared me when I first got there.  I thought I was at the wrong place.  Everyone had their hands raised; I thought they were praying.   I soon found out that was the signal for needing more oysters.  Hope everyone had a great weekend, whatever they did.

Wyatt, we would have liked to have attended if anyone had let either of us know.  One irony is that Noeline and I both dislike Golden Corral but agreed to attend due to wishes of the others.   I have no idea what we did to be excluded.  You can rest assured I personally will NEVER attend any function again.  It was frankly embarassing to have asked for the room, had people say they were to attend, and then no one show.  Let's be blunt - you hurt the feelings of two women who would not hurt any of you.  IBV, you should have let me know.

I do not care about football games or other reasons.  If I give you my word I will be somewhere, I will be there.  It was simply rude to have done this. 

Queen,  I agree with you.  But didn't you schedule this date and place after several of us said it didn't work for us?  I'm a newbie to this stuff and as I said I would like to meet everyone, so don't give up.  (I'm even very familiar with Thomas Bell.)

The Geek festival was great as usual!

I had a good time at the oyster roast. My arm was tired when I left. It was more for holding my arm up as opposed to shucking the oysters. But it was still a good time! I wish I could have seen you at the roast!

Having been to several, I think the Homebuilders Association has the best one!
