Stuff about you.


I always get a tingle in my heart when I hear the Star Spangled Banner

I got a tingle like that one time. It went away after my triple bypass.

I don't mind eating at McDonalds even without my kids. And I love their french fries.

I like the 1949 Nash Ambassador Airflyte. Hell, I like any Bathtub Nash. They are distinctive, you gotta give them that. I'll take a Metropolitan over that damn Smartcar any day

I like to shoot old guns and drink whiskey - just not at the same time.

I work at a school. I get teary-eyed when our band plays the school song. At most pep rallies, the entire district attends, so there are about 1000 kids in the gym at once. Little kids usually sing along and it can be heard over the band, and that really gets to me every time.

No idea why. I'm not from there.

Big Mac is my favorite hamburger.

I really hate the dark. I could live with it being light 24hrs/day.

I get tears in my eyes with the National Anthem.
The Navy played "Proud to be an American" to those of us on the dock, waiting for the ship to arrive with our son, and thereafter, that song makes me tear up.

Judy Judy is my favorite "trash tv" show.

Apparently I have violated the "rules" of crime shows. In those shows they always recount that a woman will have a friend who knows ALL her secrets. I have several things in my life that I have shared with absolutely no one.

Another good choice. Is there anybody who doesn't like Dean Martin?

Yet from what I remember his obituaries, all that I read, did not even mention his singing career but dealt mainly with his partnership with Jerry Lewis, something I couldn't care less about.

I officiate football and baseball. When I hear the national anthem and the hair on your neck and arms doesn't stand up, its time to retire.

I am very proud to be an American.

We have a semi reunion/gathering of lots of friends at a cousins place every Memorial Day weekend. BBQ & Beans competition, lots of convered dishes.
When we gathered around the flag pole they asked if one of the kids would lead the Pledge, Trey volunteered send did it well. Someone then spoke up and asked if anyone was old enough to remember Red Skelton doing the presentation to young folks. Trey then also spoke up and said "my grouchy can do it".. I did it for the other youngsters, not verbatim and not as well as Red did it, but I got the message out there. Great day for about a hundred or so folks.
