That reminds me of a routine that George Burns used to do on Johnny Carson.

George was in his 90's and would say to Johnny, "Even at my age, I smoke 15-20 cigars a day, drink 3-4 glasses of whiskey a day, and eat whatever I want."

Johnny would reply, "What does your doctor say?"

George Burns, "My doctor's dead."

I was a cheerleader in 8th grade and I still remember some of the cheers.

I would have NEVER known that!!!!:eek: :lol: :D :wave:


Yup, I like to surprise people with that!:lol: :wave:

I am the youngest child OF two youngest children! My Mom and Dad were both the babies of the family as I am!! :) :heart:

I have this friend who is a high school teacher at my now alma-matter, and she is just like Jan Brady! Oh, and also happens to share a name with one of the Brady girls.

She's the middle sister in her family, and she has two sisters also. She also does something related to the arts, just like Jan on the show and in real life.

The only difference is that she doesn't do art (painting). Instead, she plays music. But doesn't teach those subjects though. She teaches cooking instead.

Random fact: I dont have any socks on

One of my mother's very first crushes happened to be..

David Cassidy!

When I am not feeling happy, I like to think of my situations as my favorite shows to make me feel better and calm down.

For instance:

If I feel upset, I would either be transformed into a Brady or just simply be myself and would immediately be set in The Brady Bunch. Those scenarios would be set in the time period the show was set in with a little bit of modern thrown in.

If I felt mad, I would be a part of Night Court and would go on a date with one of the main men characters and talk to them about what's on my mind.

I love a thick and juicy neck on a man.

:happyface

Several photos that I took are missing. I hope that they're in a box that was misplaced, and not stolen from my house. One of the pics that's missing is one I took of Polly in 2000.

One unique one is one that I took in October 1988 in the Cleveland Museum of Art. I'll describe it later.

Over the weekend there was a big show at Citi Field with The Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, Steely Dan, Journey, The Doobie Brothers & Earth Wind and Fire. Great show and went off without a hitch. $6 for a bottle of water is a bargain, right?

Wow! What a great line-up! I like all of those bands. Especially The Doobies.It would have been perfect if Paul McCartney had been there.;)

And yes, $6.00 is a lot of money for a drink of water but unfortunately , like the movie theaters,the over-priced concessions is where their profits come from.

Uncle Pauly's coming in September. Have my tickets of course. :)

At those ticket prices, they made plenty of profits before the concessions including those $10 tee shirts for $40. I remember the first concert I went to and the tee shirts were $7 and I wouldn't buy one because $7 for a tee shirt was outrageous. :lol:

Vince Gill and Glenn Frey's son Deacon took turns singing his songs on Saturday night.

Last night at the end of the show Stevie Nicks commented that they were watching from backstage and thought Deacon did a tremendous job under such pressure.

Ed.

I don't get along with my father.

My parents didn't approve of my dating my future husband. For one thing he is 7 years older than I(I was 17 soon to turn 18)he was 24. And he was in the process of getting a divorce. Not because of me haha Anyway, they forbade me to see him. Divorce was still a big deal in 1968. But I went against them and we had to secretly meet. I had a friend help us out. 6 months later we got married and my parents came to love and respect him. My Mom always did like him. We were both from the same very small town and the tongues were wagging! But we are still together and plan to stay that way! So there!:lol: Here we are back in 1970.:)

:( Sorry to hear that


Random Fact about me: I love my dad, and we are very close. I am truly lucky to have a great relationship with both parents.

Thank you. :(

Thanks Torgo. Really I am not condoning disobeying ones parents but for the cause of true love it was right for me. The only thing they had against him was that he was divorced. Oh my heavens!:eek: But as I said that was still a big deal back then. Especially to my parents. As I look back I can see their side of things.:)

Mikaela, I am sorry to hear that you do not get along with your dad. You seem like a really sweet person. My dad and I are close now, but when I was your age, it was a different story. I was defiant, rebellious and wild ( a father's worse nightmare). I am just lucky my father and I have a better relationship. :) :wave:

I just don't like him right now. Wish that something bad would happen to him so that I would not have to deal with him anymore.

Another random fact about me. I'm a big Roxette fan. Swedish male/female rock-pop duo best known in America for their hit song It Must Have Been Love from the Pretty Woman soundtrack. But they had a few other number ones in the U.S. too and released several albums before they disbanded last year. :( I love all of their music.

In the end it all worked out, and good that everyone saw past the divorce, and saw your husband for who he was.

Another random fact about me is that I am fascinated with genealogy. I was able to trace my Family Tree (on father and my mother's side) to the 16th and 17th Centuries.

That is really neat.:) My oldest sister is in to it. I don't know how far back she's gone though.

I have been first chair violinist in my church orchestra for the last 4 years.

My older lady friend who is a high school teacher at my alma matter shares the same first name with a certain girl from The Brady Bunch.

I'm so exhausted this week.

I hate seeing people from my past. Don’t know why, but I just do.

I have a rare, muscular condition that's similar to MS; called HSP (Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia) and am in a wheelchair.

I am really great at technology, especially computer knowledge.

My dad, who was a fan of Greek mythology, wanted to name me "Ulysses" instead of "Donald." My mom talked him out of it.

I also have a knowledge for music.

I like to eat Cheetos w/ chopsticks to avoid messy fingers.

I almost joined my school band. Back in 5th grade, there was a presentation on each of the musical instruments and we had to write down an instrument including a backup one on a sheet of paper.

So I put down my two instrument choices and guessed what happened? I did not get in.

I enjoy watching YouTube videos of objects being removed from people's bodies; like pieces of wood, metal, glass.

I also like watching skin tag / mole removals and seeing the spot stitched up.

I enjoy watching behind the scenes documentaries

I’ve been on Facebook twice, Instagram once and am never joining those sites again.

My younger sister has MS but so far it is very slow. She was diagnosed almost 20 years ago when she was in her late 30's. She has the slow progressing type I guess. She has had some minor symptoms like unsteadiness and dizziness but so far nothing major. We are all hoping that this continues and that she won't become handicapped. She is living a full life. But who knows for how long?:confused:

Someone that works at my old high school has a friend that was an extra in the movie Jaws. He's the guy that's playing the guitar.

I am a very hyper person and it is hard for me to stay still or remain calm. I have been this way all of my life.

Me too!! I was diagnosed with Generalized anxiety disorder and I'm sure I have ADD or ADHD , but was never formally diagnosed ! As a child I couldn't concentrate in school and because they could see I was intelligent they pretty much wrote me off as being a silly, disruptive , misbehaving child !! :(:confused:

Not a celebrity, but I went to school with a girl who starred in the 1983 family mystery movie Mystery Mansion. She was a local celeb in the school while filming it, though I think us kids were mostly jealous because she got to miss a few days of school.

No way! No No!`:lol:

How about a better sounding Paul MaCartney? :wave:

I don't know who that is?:confused:

He has done movies, along with Broadway and television work such as Chappelle's Show.

And like opus said, he has been on the new version of Match Game as a panelist.

yea, everything's ok. I have trouble talking because of my condition,so the doctor operated on my vocal chords a few months ago and inserted an implant to move them closer together to improve my voice. It was starting to get better but then it stopped. He examined me and found that implant had slipped so now he wants to operate on me again to fix it.

This teacher at the high school I went to.

I attended 4 different Schools(Banneker, Hamilton, William Kottmeyer/South Grand, Mullanphy) in the St Louis area during my elementary years.

I retired just 2 years ago after working as a High School Art Teacher for 44 years.

I've had 5 operations in the last couple years, had a small stroke 7 years ago and have been in the hospital numerous times.

Well y'all already know one thing about me from my signature, but since I moved into my condo on January 31st I've been sleeping on the couch b/c I got rid of my bed. I thought it was going to be a temporary thing but unfortunately when I moved in, I told the movers to put all the boxes in my bedroom. So I'm still trying to motivate myself to clean up my bedroom enough to have space for a bed. It's not the money that's the problem, and it will be SO nice to finally have a bed where I can stretch out. Fortunately the couch is pretty comfy, but my DVR is in my bedroom and I'd have a lot more options of stuff to watch in there than in the living room. Hopefully soon....

The only kind of international food that I've ever had was Chinese food.

I use a $50,000 motorized, custom-made wheelchair and a motorized scooter to get around because I-and my brother and sister-have a rare muscular disease that's similar to MS that causes gradual muscle weakness; especially in the lower extremities.

I was a dancer, but didn't win any competitions.
