This is a village of closely knit citizenry and they never forget...I once backed a renegade candidate quite vocally, maybe 30 years ago. These people never forgot that. Of course, after I moved overseas and was gone for almost 13 tears, I figured they'd have let it go but I still get jabbed about it.

There is also the fact I "ran away from home" when I got a divorce, instead of staying here; it was very abrupt and no one had a clue I was contemplating doing this. And I know people think that was weird.

We're talking about a village where the majority of the people qualify as Gray Panthers....old fashioned, in other words.

How about all that time in those Jacksboro Highway honky-tonks?

11389. judithathome - 9/15/2004 8:44:50 AM

Ha! If you only knew!

The Rocket was the best!

My parents are on the far right

Aren't they the coolest? ;-)

What a hoot!

Maybe Mose could take him on that Harley, instead, to the Battle of the Bands.
Best of luck to her.


Um, I just rented "School of Rock". Only watched the fist 15 minutes, but the plot seems to be, slacker rocker-wanna-be signs up as a sub teacher and enlists some of the kids in the local battle of the bands contest.

Enjoyed the glass paperweight talk.

Great photo, your Dad looks like he could handle that Harley.
Whose is the painted van on the right?

11394. SnowOwl - 9/15/2004 6:22:54 PM

That's a terrific photo. I do think you need to get your Mum and Dad into leathers even if just for a picture.

11395. RickNelson - 9/15/2004 7:54:27 PM

Great picture Arky. It's what family memories are made of.

Get lots and lots of pictures on that bike.

11396. Magoseph - 9/15/2004 9:09:30 PM

Arky, what a great picture! I envy you for having such great parents. I feel I know them through all the nice things you told us over the years.

Hey, Mac, how about saying a little hello here to us today?

11397. Macnas - 9/15/2004 9:32:26 PM

Hello

11398. alistairconnor - 9/15/2004 9:37:18 PM

Hangover, Mac?

11399. Macnas - 9/15/2004 9:46:22 PM

How did you know?

I had an interview yesterday that went well, so I had a drink that led to another and, well, I'm sure you know the rest.

11400. alistairconnor - 9/15/2004 10:13:15 PM

changing jobs, are we?

11401. Macnas - 9/15/2004 10:33:28 PM

If I can I will, but it won't break my heart if I don't get it.

11402. arkymalarky - 9/16/2004 7:42:58 AM

Good luck, Mac.

Thanks, all, for the nice comments wrt my parents. They have unfortunately had their moment in the sun with their Harley. They didn't even cruise the block, but returned it to be sold by the Harley place and they'll take the money. They didn't even give me time to try to borrow some leather for them to wear. No sense of adventure, those two. ;-)

Neato,

I may be wrong, but I think that van belongs to the radio station. Hot Springs has a huge bikers' convention every year and it was just last week. The turnout was enormous, but I don't remember how much. The drawing had 180,000 entries, though, so Dad's win was pretty impressive.

Take the TV out!
