happy birthday old chap

I miss him too; along with all the other members of the old guard who have passed; and the young ones like Drew lost before their time.
I remember when he had a pic of a panhandler with a sign "Why lie, I need money for a beer" taken at the old rail trestle by white rock lake in Dallas a mile or so from my house as his sig.
It used to really crack me up . Wish I had saved it.
i remember that
photo
some posted it on the board
marty
-
one thing i like about this board
we are allowed opinions
be rightwing or socialist
in the past i lambasted the bush cheney GANG
OVER IRAQ
and in the end my bleatings are true
but it still didnt stop the killing of people still going on
is that called a bush cheney legacy
for me i would like to see
obama bring all the people to gether
he has aready alerted the world he would like to talk
isnt that a start
isnt that why he was elected
people had a guts full of rightwing agenda
all of europe are for
his mending relationships
what will happen if we dont do something
the world will go for atomic weapons
then it dosent matter if we are right or left wing we all go up in smoke
marty

it is a handy tool
tho on vista its security is better then any other
microsoft products

but ile keep malwarebytes on my sys

between MB and avast ive bin trouble free
for a long time
any s----t you get on your sys

if you come down to the soutjh pacific
you will se socialism practied in its true form
practiced to the peoples needs
australia- new zealand-all pacifis islands
and england was until tony blair turned the labor party supporting bush
and the public soon changed that
many south american countys have tiurned to socialism
thev had enough of the american right wing greedy
take all politics
the recent crash will vouch for this statement
obama is trying to stop that trend
weather he succeds or not will
be a matter if he lives long enough
god i hope so
read this
-
dam typical right wing claptrap
they always have excuses
to us billions out here we think obama
is doing a difficult
job
more than that a-----le
who made war on iraq
to prop up the america economy
see were it got tony blair
this redneck politics
will see this president assassinated
millions of us predict it
already some politician has called him a liar
in parliment
unheard of in the history
of american politics
so rednecks have no boundrys
marty

young man moved into a new flat of his own and went to the lobby to
put his name on his mailbox.
While there, an attractive young lady came out of the flat next to the
mailboxes, wearing a robe.
The boy smiled at the young woman and she started a conversation with
him.
As they talked, her robe slipped open, and it was obvious that she had
nothing else on.
The poor kid broke into a sweat trying to maintain eye contact.
After a few minutes, she placed her hand on his arm and said, "Let's go
to my apartment, I hear someone coming."
He followed her into her apartment; she closed the door and leaned
against it, allowing her robe to fall off completely.
Now nude, she purred at him, "What would you say is my best feature?"
Flustered and embarrassed, he finally squeaked, "It's got to be your
ears."
Astounded, and a little hurt she asked, "My ears? Look at these breasts;
they are full and 100% natural. I work out every day and my butt is firm
and solid. Look at my skin - no blemishes anywhere. How can you think
that the best part of my body is my ears?"
Clearing his throat, he stammered.... "Outside, when you said you heard
someone coming.... that was me." [report anonymous abuse] [
