Ocean Boy Posted May 16 #121802 Share Posted May 16 Kraken was just the answer to a Jeopardy question. And ABBA is a category! And Mamma Mia was just an ABBA answer!🙂 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm living with a constant heavy stone literally on my chest, not enabling me to breath.... I'm enjoying some "glimpse" of normal life, like the trip we took to my roots. But, otherwise, all is dark. This war could have been ended months ago, with the same results, but without so much loss of lives on both sides and useless damage. And the hostages are still there, and the Red Cross still didn't manage to visit/supply meds to any one of them. + 1 Pat @taznremmy @Sea Dog + 1 Greg 💐 🥂 😘 [had a good laugh, much needed, at the "sea fog"] @SteelCityCruiser10 Mark, may I join all the other posters in saying that I'm so sorry you've lost your regal Oliver 😢. 1 hour ago, h20skibum said: @Sea Dog Happy Birthday Greg.

You are way too kind to me. Turning 68 is weird. I am now in the category of youngster at heart but my body tells me otherwise. I guess it’s all downhill now. Good thing is that I have 6 cruises booked so those will hopefully keep me young. Had a fun day. Slept in and then had lunch at my favorite taco joint growing up. In-a-Tub. I’ve been going there for over 60 years. They are famous for their tacos which consist of meat and cheese clamped into a tortilla shell and then deep fried so the cheese and meat melt together. Then the shells are unclamped and lettuce and get this, powdered cheese is added. It’s definitely an acquired taste. But I love them. Then tiki shopping at a high end bar and liquor supply store. They have a very big selection of high end and hard to find rums. I picked up a couple of Ed Hamilton’s rums which are very good. His zombie blend is the best. Makes it so you don’t have to blend several runs together. Jonathan came over and we went to a famous steakhouse here in KC, Jess and Jim’s. They have great steaks and their prices don’t break the bank. 8oz filet, loaded baked potato and salad for $45. Of course I had to have an old fashioned. Steak was delicious and cooked perfectly at medium rare. For presents Linda and Jonathan got me a new iPad and a political gag gift that I can not show here for fear of having to play monopoly. All in all a great day thanks to all of you who took the time to wish me a happy birthday. I am extremely blessed and grateful for all of you. Cheers! the older dog. 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunshine3601 Posted May 17 #121810 Share Posted May 17 For those that watch Below Deck do you remember Camille the stew that dated Ben? Surfing TV and I just saw she is now on a realty show called Lovers and Liars. Seems perfect for her😆 Also, she was a contestant on American Idol in 2021. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coralc Posted May 17 #121812 Share Posted May 17 Happy Birthday Greg! It sounds like an excellent day. We don't usually do much for holidays. Bill usually gets me a B&N gift card in June for my birthday and I get him an Amazon gift card for his in August. I told him not to bother this year. He has been selling things on eBay like mad and just transferred over $600 into my account. My dad's WWII flight jacket just sold for $275. I really loved that jacket when I was a teenager. I probably shouldn't have worn it out so much. Amazing. ☺️ We have a lot of photos from the 1906 earthquake from the Oakland side of the Bay, that my grandfather took. The newspaper used to borrow and publish them every year. I think we will see about donating them to the Oakland Museum. I already gave them an intact California mole to freeze dry. (And then took it off my taxes. 😛) 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just watching BD last night. The one where Ben is now “seeing” Sunny on that ship/season. I’m not sure if this is the current season or not TBH. I thought it was funny when he FaceTimed Camille trying to see her again and she wasn’t into it. 😂 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Ozark_Kid Posted May 17 #121815 Share Posted May 17 @Sea Dog Happy Birthday Greg! Looks like you enjoyed your time. I also turned 68 in March. We saw some grads riding around today.

BonTexasNY Posted May 17 #121816 Share Posted May 17 @SteelCityCruiser10 I was so sorry to read about your sweet Oliver's passing. So regal and loved. @dani negreanu Dani what an emotional trip you took fulfilling your mother's wishes. To be there with your son must have made it very special to delve into your roots. @Sea Dog Greg, a very happy birthday. You celebrated perfectly. May all your birthday wishes come true. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grapau27 Posted May 17 #121817 Share Posted May 17 Good morning. I have been awake since daybreak at 5am when it was foggy outside. It is partly sunny and 52°F now at 09.53am. I finally accepted my arthritis would prevent me ever playing golf again and sold my Callaway irons and Taylor Made putter last week and I have someone coming today to buy my King Cobra Driver. I hope everyone is safe and in good health and y'all have a wonderful day. 17 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife will have her 50 year high school reunion next year too. She will be matching ages with you and John when she has her birthday next month. Long story but I am one of the older members of my class as I took 3rd grade over. Why? We moved to a new house in the middle of the year. The school district I came from used the old math method. The new district used new modern math teaching. Even though I did ok my teacher talked to my parents about taking third grade over to firmly grasp the concepts. My parents asked if I was ok with it. Not knowing any better I said sure. The one advantage it did give me besides understanding math better was when I got to high school I was one of the first to get my drivers license thus making me very popular. I guess it was better to be one of the older members of my class than one of the youngest. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 50th wedding anniversary is this summer. Guess what we’re doing to celebrate - we’re cruising! We couldn’t find a special one we liked on the actual date, so we’re going early. We got married on Labor Day weekend so that Dave could work as long as possible and we could have a few days before college classes began. We were poor married students for 2 more years before we graduated and got real jobs. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
