June 2017 all topic thread

Hello all,

Welcome to the middle of the year. 2017 is already half over. Well, it will be at the end of the month I reckon. In any case, this year is flying by, and I haven't even started my Christmas shopping yet.

Jim

I know we used to have some celebrities in Fresno, but they all died. I have no idea if there are any here now.

David Seville (Alvin and the chipmunks creator) was born here, Ken Curtis (Festus on Gunsmoke) lived here, as did Richard Kiel (Club in Palerider, and Jaws in Moonraker), however, none of them are alive today.

It was more of a tongue and cheek implication that I'll be kicking it poolside at my brothers place (he has a very nice place in the Briggs Ranch development) like a movie star.

Stuart, I would have said, Temporary early retirement. Lol!

Well, today went down the tubes already. Tried to R&R the leveling jacks on the trailer and quit before I got things too messed up. Now to take it in tomorrow and let somebody wo isn't crippled up do the job right.

Now o try and get the pain down and do some other chores.

Happy Sunday Nor Cal. Hope everyone has a blessed day.

Stuart, after I replied to your post, it dawned on me you might be kidding.

You,

My bad fo having a friend wh spells it the other way and not going back to verify your spelling.

You should see how I spell names after talking on the phone and not being given the spelling. Kinda fun being partially deaf and a lousy speller to boot!

I know who ya meant. I always get tickled whenever someone posts a response or a question for me and they spell my name wrong, when it's the same as my user name, and I always sign my posts.

Don't worry about me playing around Modok, I was just having fun.

Since I do 80% of my group time using the phone app there are no signatures visible.

Try having a true first name and last name that people use interchangeably I've been called a lot of things.
