  7. I've never been on a forum before this one. When I signed up, I was a little nervous, ok, a lot nervous, to put any info out there. Didn't take me long to figure out that these are some of the best people who would do anything for you. A couple months ago I updated my profile. If anyone one of them were in our area and needed help....Gary and I would be honored! Best thing about the bunch on here is they'll help to keep me from going crazy before all the snow melts and we can climb back on our bikes and have the wind in our face again!!!
  8. Another 9 inches yesterday. Blizzard. 13 below zero today. Again. Hubby's living on 3 hours of sleep a night because of snowplowing for the county. The snow's so hard that all they're plows are breaking and he can't keep his own roads clean as he's trying to weld back all the other plows. I gotta give him credit, as he still hasn't lost his sense of humor... He'll sleep through Christmas at this rate.
  9. You can get Visited state maps at: www.epgsoft.com The only thing is when you visit new states you have do redo the whole map.
  10. Wow!! Thank you!
  11. 6 inches a couple days ago, 7 inches this moring, and it's still snowing! At least it's the fluffy stuff!
  12. I thought I'd share these with you...... My wife sat down on the couch next to me as I wasflipping the channels. She asked, 'What's on TV?' I said, 'Dust.' And then thefight started... ____________________________________________________________________ My wife was hinting about what she wanted for Christmas. She said, 'I want something shiny that goes from 0 to 200 in about 3 seconds.' I bought her a scale. And then the fight started... ================================================================== When I got home last night, my wife demanded that I take her someplace expensive.... so, I took her to a gas station... And then the fight started.... ____________________________________________________________________________ My wife and I were sitting at a table at my high school reunion,and I kept staring at a drunken lady swigging her drink as she sat alone at a nearby table. My wife asked, 'Do you know her?' 'Yes,' I sighed, 'She's my old girlfriend.. I understand she took to drinking right after we split up those many years ago, and I hear she hasn't been sober since.' 'My God!' says my wife, 'who would think a person could go on celebrating that long?' And then the fight started. ________________________________________________________________________ THE BROKEN LAWN MOWER When our lawn mower broke and wouldn't run, my wife kept hinting to me that I should get it fixed. But, somehow I always had something else to take care of first, the truck, the car, playing golf. Always something more important to me. Finally she thought of a clever way to make her point. When I arrived home one day, I found her seated in the tall grass, busily snipping away with a tiny pair of sewing scissors. I watched silently for a short time and then went into the house. I was gone only a minute, and when I came out again I handed her a. toothbrush. I said, 'When you finish cutting the grass, you might as well sweep the driveway.' The doctors say I will walk again, but I will always have a limp... ________________________________________________________________________
  13. Wish there was something I could say to make you feel better, but I'm glad he's facing life. I know it's not an easy time for you guys. Just wanted you to know your still in my thoughts and prayers.
  14. Couldn't have said it better myself! Having just joined last May, the people on this site are wonderful. They truly are the best, and will always be there for you. Even though I am a "newbie" here, I've laughed, cried, whined, learned but mostly enjoyed every bit of it. The ones that have been here for years always welcome new members with open arms. I tend to get sappy at this time of year....so just wanted to wish all of you the warmest of holidays! Here's hoping we all have a safe New Year! It's been a great year "getting to know you"!! Happy Holidays everyone!
  15. Well, I came back in this morning and couldn't believe my eyes. I thought I was brave eating the ostrich...... I gotta give all of you credit. You have tried things I never would have thought were even edible and some I've never heard of. Couldn't stand looking at the pictures so I didn't even dare watch the video. My stomach's rolling as I read the posts. I think I'll just stick to a good medium rare steak cooked on the grill. Thanks for sharing. I've broadened my horizons thanks to all of you! Now if my stomach would just settle down!:smilies6:
  16. Happy Holidays to you!!!!
  17. Just riding out to dinner one night. Only pix we have. I gotta get better at taking pictures!
  18. Your wife is going to love it! I have a 94 1100 and it's Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!! Not one to brag but it sounds better than the hubby's Venture!!
  19. Now that's just plain sick! Beats my pickled pigs feet all to heck. Next question.....just what are grits anyway. When we were in Arkansas riding a couple of years ago...everytime we stopped at a gas station on some back road, that's what they served. Is it a meat, patato, ???? Just remembered a couple after seeing others. Froglegs & shark.
  20. Earthworms.....are you kidding me?
  21. eaten? Had a fancy, shmancey cocktail party we had to go to last week, and they served ostrich on a tiny peice of bread with a sauteed mushroom and some sauce on it. That was a first for me. Anyway...it got me to thinking about all the strange food I've had to try in my life. Rocky Mountain Oysters: (Tasted great till I found out what they were and promplty threw up) Alligator: (Wasn't bad, but once was enough) Rattlesnake: (Gave me the heeby jeebies)(Did I mention I'm scared to death of snakes?) Buffalo: (Pretty good, but I started pawing the ground and snorting afterwards) Venison: (The only way to eat it is if it's cooked hot and fast) Calamari: (Tastes like a rubber tire) Crayfish:(Had to eat it in Louisiana at a crayfish boil where you have to pull off the head and suck the brains out. A lot of ice cold Corona helped. Sorry, but you canjuns have a wierd sense of humor!) Pickled Pigs Feet: (When I was a little girl, my dad and I used to sit at the kitchen table with a jar of it and a quart of buttermilk. I think we did it just to make my mom sick watching us eat it. Good memories.) Sushi: (Apparently you have to aquire a taste for it. Not my cup of tea.) Anyway, that's all I can think of now. So, what's the weirdes thing you've ever been brave enough to eat?
  22. Hate to admit it, but everyone of them is true!
  23. You take great pix!!! Thanks for sharing!
