It does seem there would be a better way to get rid of weeds?<BR/><BR/>Many times what is posted here reminds me of song lyrics. Reading Nancy's post today reminds me (of course!) of John Cougar Mellencamp's "Small Town" -<BR/>Well I was born in a small town<BR/>And I live in a small town<BR/>Prob'ly die in a small town<BR/>Oh, those small communities<BR/><BR/>All my friends are so small town<BR/>My parents live in the same small town<BR/>My job is so small town<BR/>Provides little opportunity...<BR/><BR/>Good song, good thoughts from Nancy, good fellowship here. :-)<BR/><BR/>Farf, good luck finishing the last couple of episodes!<BR/><BR/>Conda, your post reminds me of the weather saying, "If you don't like the weather, wait five minutes and it will change." We're having "typical" opening day weather here, 50's with off and on rain. Hey, we're used to it. It often snows! lol The rain may actually bring the Indians some good luck. We lost the first three in sunny Texas (hi, Lisa).<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the Good Friday wishes, Andif. I wish everyone a good holiday weekend whatever you're celebrating.bononoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9004909290975090333.post-33557123351357448432009-04-10T14:11:00.000-05:002009-04-10T14:11:00.000-05:00Nancy, how bittersweet your post is.

I love small towns, but know how they struggle. <BR/><BR/>And in answer to your earlier question, we're having a typical Boise spring: snow in the morning, 70 degrees at noon, then hail, then sun then...never boring!Conda Douglashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12972790965426924941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9004909290975090333.post-74198364358971125462009-04-10T09:01:00.000-05:002009-04-10T09:01:00.000-05:00Much ugliness expected in Sector 706 this afternoo...Much ugliness expected in Sector 706 this afternoon as storms move through. It doesn't sound *quite* as bad as the Palm Sunday Outbreak some years back, but this Good Friday one sounds potentially bad enough.<BR/><BR/>I'm now about 2-3 episodes from wrapping up <I>FAR Future</I> — now if life will just STOP for a few days, I might actually finish the dang thing. I haven't even gotten to my taxes yet! (It would help if we weren't eating out every damn night.) At one post a week, it'll be some time before the last one gets posted & I lose half my readers. ;-)<BR/><BR/>Hoping everyone stays warm, dry, and no trips to Oz today!Larry Kollarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08317037795075278427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9004909290975090333.post-29454310701737429512009-04-10T07:46:00.000-05:002009-04-10T07:46:00.000-05:00ummm... :) Coffee and Nancy!

How cool that you get to contribute to them in such a unique way, Nancy. <BR/><BR/>Watched the fire coverage in OK last night on the Weather Channel - scary and sad. Weird, after our topic yesterday.<BR/><BR/>Off to buy new tires - have a wonderful Friday, everyone!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9004909290975090333.post-64924448160909465232009-04-10T05:37:00.000-05:002009-04-10T05:37:00.000-05:00Nancy, I really enjoy hearing the enthusiasm you h...Nancy, I really enjoy hearing the enthusiasm you have for the towns and the people you've visited. <BR/>I get so tired of the negative and we can ALWAYS find the down side. <BR/><BR/>My Brother-in-law sent me the following link this morning: <BR/><A HREF="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7EYAUazLI9k" REL="nofollow">Toetapping Good Time</A><BR/><BR/>Makes me wish I could sing and dance. <BR/><BR/>This is my Friday off. SOOO glad as 12 new students came to intake meeting yesterday which means Monday will be a pip. <BR/><BR/>Maria, Hope you get some down time to write and relax. <BR/><BR/>Beth, glad you're home. Parents with failing health seems to a theme for several of my friends right now. Hope you can find the traction you need to get going the way you want. <BR/><BR/>Andi, Pat the pups for me. <BR/><BR/>Fabulous Friday to All.Lisa Mnoreply@blogger.com
