Thanks for the warning echobay. Barb

I read somewhere that "Jane Pauley Show" is either going off the air or is gone. I don't remember where I read it. BTW, I'll have a cup of coffee to go, and throw in a donut or two. Barb

Happy Birthday jimras

Thanks rv56. I feel better now. By the way, anybody got any donuts or something to go with this coffee? Guess we should wait until construction is done. Barb

Whew, thank heavens you got more coffee. I was going thru withdrawal. Barb

Hey. Anybody home? Are we out of coffee already? Barb

Hi sidekickcat and Liz: Thanks for the links for the lighthouses. I love lighthouses. I have many pictures I use for wallpaper, among other pictures. Barb

Marty: That is so cute. Haha Happy Easter to you. Barb

Happy Birthday CTS Barb

Ditto on that one. They have helped me. Barb

Whoa...You must have really odd hobbies then ...Then again, I'm not the person to talk.. By the way, those who are trying to lose weight: Drink water when you are on the computer. I always have huge bottles near me, and I drink water unconciously all the time. I know, you need to go to the bathroom a bit more, but you really do feel much better...I mean, I don't need to lose weight, but I do feel much more at ease...No more headaches due to dehydration! I never thought of that. What a great way to get yourself to drink water. Barb

Hi thesidekickcat: Since I quit smoking, of course comes the weight gain. Now I have to also contain that. I try to walk 2 miles a day, it's not much, but better than nothing. (weather permitting) Walking is very good for you, keeps the old heart pumping, strenghtens your legs etc. You know the old saying "you don't use it, you will loose it" Try walking as far as you can, remembering that you have to walk back.

Thanks sultan. Very good info. Barb

Hey Liz: Just like robroy did, cold turkey. Had been thinking about it for many years, and finally decided to do it. Just got up one day, and said this is the day. I had read up on it, and they said the first 72 hrs is when you are going thru niccotine withdrawal. After that it was just getting over the habit of wanting a cigerette. You definately have to make up your mind first. Don't plan a day, because you will smoke yourself to death knowing you plan to stop on that day. I think you will smoke more. First make up your mind you really want to do it. The hardest part is making up your mind a

A friend of mine sent this to me, thought you might enjoy. These are hilarious but a bit scary! After every flight, pilots fill out a form called a gripe sheet, which conveys to the mechanics problems encountered with the aircraft during the light that need repair or correction. The mechanics read and correct the problem, and then respond in writing on the lower half of the form what remedial action was taken, and the pilot reviews the gripe sheets before the next flight. Never let it be said that ground crews and engineers lack a sense of humor! Here are some actual logged maintenance
