28 Nov 13 - 05:47 PM (#3579739) Subject: RE: BS: Happy Thanksgiving From: Don Firth And a happy Thanksgiving to you, too, olddude. And to your wife. The pin in her ankle might make it interesting going through airport scanners (I have a rod in my left femur. Busted it pretty bad thirteen years ago.). My wife and I are waiting for the horde to arrive. About ten people altogether. Cooking problem more or less solved. Coordinated pot luck. No football. The mob consists of musicians of assorted types, an actor, a couple of artists. . . . Lots of conversation. Don Firth |
28 Nov 13 - 06:05 PM (#3579746) Subject: RE: BS: Happy Thanksgiving From: GUEST,olddude Thanks Don just me and the Mrs. Kids all overseas visiting my middle daughter. So we are just taking it easy. The turkey was good. Sure thing about the steel implants. I get busted every time I fly .. my neck and back are all steel they pat me down every single time. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours my brother |

The best part is they just left... Now there's something to be tahnkful for... B~ |
28 Nov 13 - 07:23 PM (#3579766) Subject: RE: BS: Happy Thanksgiving From: GUEST,laptopgnu Dan... so sorry to learn of the Mrs.'s ankle. You take good care of her.

Big man. Big plays. Gotta watch them Lions! I am surprised the Raiders are only down 7... Dallas front line just doesn't seem... SACK! Later dude. |

29 Nov 13 - 03:17 AM (#3579820) Subject: RE: BS: Happy Thanksgiving From: Amergin Sounds good. I went over to a friend's place...we are all poets in the area, and all have made names for ourselves in the scene. Had lots of good laughter, conversation, wine and food...it was a great time....I was witty...and apparently, managed to piss off the woman I am interested in. |
29 Nov 13 - 06:26 AM (#3579864) Subject: RE: BS: Happy Thanksgiving From: Pete Jennings Didn't realise it was Thanksgiving yesterday but by happy coincidence me and the Mrs went out for a great meal. Wonderful food. Lots of wine. Gotta a thick head this morning... Happys atcha, as gnu would say. |

Sooooooo, Pumpkin Pie Day is over and we can get on to Mincemeat Pie Day eh. Mmmmmmmm... HOT mincemeat pie with vanilla ice cream and turkey.

29 Nov 13 - 06:52 AM (#3579882) Subject: RE: BS: Happy Thanksgiving From: Will Fly Well, I hope you all over there had a good Thanksgiving. Dan - my best to you and Mrs. Olddude, and I hope her ankle heals quickly and smoothly. When you've done with household chores for a few minutes, why not post some more pics of your great watches on the Old Pocket Watches thread? (I'm saving up a couple of things for Mahlon to service and will be getting them to him after Christmas). I've never had pumpkin pie - is it sweet? |
29 Nov 13 - 10:56 AM (#3579941) Subject: RE: BS: Happy Thanksgiving From: GUEST,olddude Thanks Will, I will post some pics. Pumpkin pie is awesome .. sweet but not overly sweet it is one of my favorites for sure. Lots of turkey, acorn squash, mashed potatoes and cranberrys ... I bet I gained 10 lbs LOL |
29 Nov 13 - 11:57 AM (#3579957) Subject: RE: BS: Happy Thanksgiving From: maeve We are thankful for so much in our lives, though life is very hard at times. We are sad to miss the 60+ year family gathering in a nearby state due to weather, and a disappointment we couldn't have a nice dinner at home, but the focus of the day for us is being thankful to God, friends, family, strangers... and we are. Thanks, friends. Dan, I do hope your wife is healing well. Maeve |
29 Nov 13 - 12:20 PM (#3579965) Subject: RE: BS: Happy Thanksgiving From: SINSULL Dan, OUCH! So sorry the Missus is ailing. She's lucky to have you. I know too many men who would have tossed the turkey uncooked in the trash and ordered Chinese. Maeve and TruLove - I know you missed spending the day with your family. I also know that you treasured the time with each other and the chickens. I spent the day with the Morses. A bountiful and delicious meal followed by music and stories and good times. Crapped out this morning and didn't go to work. The kitties are giving thanks for being able to go in and out of the back door at will. Happy Thanksgiving all. Mary |
29 Nov 13 - 04:04 PM (#3580016) Subject: RE: BS: Happy Thanksgiving From: Q (Frank Staplin) Canada held Thanksgiving in October, but we had a pumpkin pie anyway. Thanksgiving- I can say "get stuffed" and get a smile rather than a brickbat. Happy happys to all. |
29 Nov 13 - 04:43 PM (#3580023) Subject: RE: BS: Happy Thanksgiving From: Jeri I had a wonderful meal with the Morses as well. SINS, funny how we missed each other like that. I certainly realized I need to find some opportunities for music, since I seem to have lost a lot. My usual Thanksgiving for the past 13 or 14 years was with curmudgeon (Tom) and Bat Goddess (Linn). I think neither Linn nor I could have dealt with the empty chair, so we both went in different direction. I'm thankful for friends who open their hearts and homes to unconnected ones such as I. May your generosity come back to you in spades. |
29 Nov 13 - 06:12 PM (#3580047) Subject: RE: BS: Happy Thanksgiving From: SINSULL Oh yeah. Jeri was there too. So were Thomas and Melissa,a fox, assorted birds, a semi-stray cat and I think that was it. lol |

She likes you...you just frustrated her agenda's expectations. Now she has to look at the work cut out for herself, and doesn't know if she's up to it!...as if she wants everything handed to her!! GfS |
