While searching for a video the other day, I came across the intro to Magnum P.I. This is one of my favorite TV theme songs, as well as being one of my favorite old shows. I can remember driving home from work, windows down, blasting this song for all the other drivers to hear. I'm sure they appreciated that. ;)
It got me wondering though...what has happened to TV theme songs?? Hardly any shows have them anymore..if they do, they are very short. Boston Legal's was great...but what about old openers like the one from 'Hawaii 5-0' and 'Love American Style'?? Do you miss these old theme songs like I do? Which ones do you remember?

Zona, I liked that theme music and show as well.
The only one's I can think of that still play theme music are the CSI show's.
GW has it too, I like that one.
Last night's episode was pretty creepy.
10
oh, ER's music is pretty good too..last season for that show too.

Have a great day all!
Good morning Hooters!
Hey Birdee!! CongrATS ON 1ST thru 12~
Colder than a witches tit here today.
Zona- there are so many theme songs I could sing, I probably could win a contest. Recently the theme from "Las Vegas" was my favorite. But the past? I remember the "Love Boat", and "The Courtship of Eddies Father" and "Fame" just to name a few.
Thanks for the hug MEK- it was delivered by Jodi at lunch yesterday. As ususal I enjoyed every minute of her company and we toasted all you OWLS when we drank our micro-brews.
Hope that todays OWLS having lunch have a great time!!!!
Good Morning Owls! Finally a day off!!! I may not even go to the nursing home to see Dad today. He never remembers that I've been there anyway.
I have mounds of laundry. My husband has the good car all day, and I'm stuck with the one that has no heater. My daughter is begging me not to go. (She would have to go w/me.) I'm still feeling yucky from my sinus infection.
THERE! I've talked myself out of going. :)
Congrats on first Birdee! It's slightly snowing here too.
Good conversation-starter blog Zona! I love all the oldies that I'm sure we all still know every word of: The Brady Bunch, Gilligan's Island, Beverly Hillbillies, Three's Company, etc. I can't really stand to watch those shows anymore, but I'll never forget the theme songs. I can't wait to read what others say.
Who are the Owls meeting for lunch today?

Here's the story,
Of a lovely lady,
Who was bringing up three very lovely girls.
All of them had hair of gold,
Like their mother,
The youngest one in curls.
Here's the story,
Of a man named Brady,
Who was busy with three boys of his own.
They were four men,
Living all together, but they were all alone-.
Till the one day when the lady met this fellow,
and they knew they was much more than a hunch.
That this group,
Must somehow form a family.
That's the way we all became the Brady Bunch,
The Brady Bunch- the Brady Bunch
That's the way- we became the Brady Bunch.

Morning y'all! OMG Zona, I love theme songs!!:)
I have noticed too in recent years, they have shortened them or altogether done away with them, which makes me sad
Some of the most memorable for me are:
Beverly Hillbillies
Brady Bunch
Andy Griffith Show(our family LOVES this show)
Gilligan's Island
I even loved Oprah's theme songs over the years and would sing along(yes, I'm a dork haha)
Remember "RUN ON..."?
Doogie Howser(even though it was just music)
Growing Pains(I was addicted to this show AND Kirk Cameron-pre-crazy Kirk LMAO)
I think it's awesome that the owls have been meeting. I know y'all are having a blast:)
Carol, I read about Mickey in Area 51..Hope you got rid of him lol
I Love Lucy(did you know it does have words? lol)
I think it goes something like:
"..I love Lucy and she loves me, we're as happy as two can be..."
Is anyone watching "Game Show in my Head" or "Howie Do it"? I think they're great...Howie Do It is basically a practical joke show. I used to love "Bloopers and Practical Jokes" with Dick Clark!
Congrats on 1st Birdee!!:)
I may have told y'all before, but if you're missing the sitcom "Big Bang Theory", you're missing one of the funniest shows on TV! I laughed out loud so hard last Monday lol
Here are two links I'm SURE y'all will enjoy!:)
TODDLER SAYS BYE BYE BUSH
It's so cute and funny!
Here's an awesome parody of "Single Ladies" about Obama!!
OBAMA PARODY
35!! lol
Zona - Loved your blog. I am being picked up in a few minutes to go to Duncan to spend the day with my baby grand daughter. I will think of theme songs the whole way up there and write when I get back.
Have a great day everyone.
Good afternoon feathered friends!
BIRRRRRDDDDDDEEEEEEE...congrats on 1st! Coloring your feathers today? Kewl!
ZONA...how fun! I keep remembering the themes to Facts of Life and Malcolm in the Middle! Funny, but I never watched Malcom until recently as it is on after TMZ at midnight! I hope you, Tina and Dianne are having a great time together...but could you not! Give my regards to MEK this afternoon.
It is 15 degrees here, after yesterdays 40. Brrr. Some areas around me are getting hit with lots of snow, but so far it hasn't gotten to me...YET!
TINKA...so glad you are spending the day with your baby granddaughter. I know you will love that...as will she!
JOEY...are you still in SC?
Hey Maureen! Yes, still here lol
Not sure what is in store for me next...lol
39
40!
At the rate I'm going, I may have to change my name back to "JoeyfromSC" haha
Birdee Haven't you got that snow off of your back yet? Brrrrr, is right! Congrats on #1 today!
MEK, Tina, Zona, and Dianne-in-AZ Have a great lunch and fun visit. Do we need to start collecting bail money?
Zona Thank you for today's blog! I really enjoyed Magnum PI also. I really like CSI's as well. From the past, the first ones I thought of were Miami Vice, All in the Family and Cheers. I wonder why theme songs aren't used more currently? Probably to allow more air time for commercials. :(
Speaking of theme songs/music, I really, truly cannot stand Conan O'Brien. I do watch The Tonight Show a lot of the time which comes on right before Conan so when that show ends I try to change the channel as fast as I can so I don't hear the Conan theme music. I can't stand that, either.
"Hi hooters", it is a toastie 17* here in my neck of the woods. No snow so far. Mr Mary has a terrible chest cold. He is getting ready to light his sauna to loosen up his boogers!
Birdee,Congrats on 1st to Goldie lol!
My most memorable t.v show tunes are Dragnet,My 3 Sons, and my favorite...Perry Mason!
Tinka enjoy your day. So glad you are up and at 'em again.
Carol, LMAO at warning the Arizona
Highway Patrol!
Hartldo~ I'm with you! "No laundry da"!!
MEK~I will be remembering you this coming summer! lol!
Hi Joey,IBB,Goldie & MO~~~~~~
HI Justlin!!
I almost forgot, Iteach, my heart goes out to you. So sorry about your loss.
Hey Mary and Just_Lin!
LMAO@loosen up his boogers!
48!
49
FIFTY!!!! lol
Justlin, I have tried many time to watch Conan, but his childish crap turns me off! I miss Johnny Carson.
Joey! Is 50 the newest 69? !!!
Good morning, Everybody!
Goldie, ROFLMAO at your observation that the theme songs were great, but the shows are unwatchable! I agree!
Joey: Thanks for the Barak links! LOL!
OK, my fave theme song is one that some of you probably haven't ever heard, and I can't find it on YouTube!
It is... the theme song to... The Time Tunnel!
Not just the theme song... I LOVED LOVED LOVED that show!
Mary: I don't like Conan that much either!
you're welcome Whabby!
LOL@the new 69..YES it is hehe
Whabby: Never heard of it, but I like it! Here it is:
TIME TUNNEL FOR WHABBEAR
Carol: Thanks for looking out for the good citizens of the state of Arizona! In the midst of despair and recession, advance warning of marauding owls is just prudent.
OMG someone on the comments there mentioned "Land of the Lost"..I remember that show and always thought it was dumb haha
Whabby, you made me do research again hehe
I'd love to know your SAT score! lol
ma·raud (m-rôd)
v. ma·raud·ed, ma·raud·ing, ma·rauds
v.intr.
To rove and raid in search of plunder.
v.tr.
To raid or pillage for spoils
OMG.. thanks, Joey!
You've never seen the show? Too bad... like all of Irwin Allen's 60's sci fi series, its really just for kids.
The only one I didn't like much was "Land of the Giants"!!
btw, Mary, your owl is GORGEOUS:)
Sexty!! lol
yw Whabby! nope, never even heard of it lol
JUST LIN...I agree with you about Conan. I think he is an oaf! I can't wait to see what Jimmy Fallon will be like when he takes over. I love to watch Craig Ferguson. I was glad he took over and I never had to think of watching Conan again! I guess I will have to start watching David Letterman...or go to bed at a decent hour!!
WHABBBY...I never heard of that theme song...or that show for that matter! Was it a Canadian show?
Joey: We didn't have to take SATs in Canada! LOL!
Hi Mary, Joey, Bear!!!
Mary I switch over to Craig Ferguson. I do like him a lot. He makes me laugh.
Lani was over for dinner last night and I made a cake for dessert. I haven't made a cake in years and I can't stop eating it! I had a piece for breakfast! I need an intervention!
Wow whabby, Amazon has them used starting at $13.00 and change!!
TIME TUNNEL ON AMAZON
Maureen, I'm excited about Jimmy Fallon's show too! He is so great!
haha Whabby! oh!
What kind of cake did you make JL?
I ♥ cake!
68!
69!!!!!!
Maureen I watch Jay or David, depending on who the guests are. I like them both. I cannot stand that Conan is taking over The Tonight Show. It will be The Tonight Show for Thirteen Year Old Boys, IMHO.
I have to admit, I do laugh at the insult dog. He is so outrageous!
Wow! I expected a lot of owls to not have seen The Time Tunnel, but not that you would have never heard of it!
We didn't get "Star Trek" where I grew up (just one over-the-air CBC channel came in to the Beaver Valley in the 60's), so my two favorite shows were Lost in Space and The Time Tunnel.
Hmmmm... I wonder if pre-adolescent boys today would like those shows??? They're all out on DVD... but it was such a different time, with the Apollo program getting everybody jazzed about space travel and science fiction...
Joey Congrats on 69! I made a yellow cake and made chocolate frosting from scratch. I think it's the frosting that keeps calling to me.
Bear I do think young boys would like remakes of those shows with updated special effects. I mean, a robot who looks like he's made out of cardboard boxes and dryer vent hoses just wouldn't do in today's world.
The cake sounds yummy!! I LOVE homemade chocolate frosting!
Please share your recipe when you have time hehe
JUST LIN...I think the only skit I used to like on Conan was when he (or his writers!) made their own state quarters. Those were hilarious. Oh, I almost forgot, I can watch Jimmy Kimmel until Craig or Fallon come on! Oh happy day!
WHABBY...I loved Lost in Space. I especially loved that June Lockhart's character was named Maureen! Danger Will Robinson!
MARY...you must have given MR.MARY quite the anniversary work-out!! Hope he feels better soon.
BEBBI...I forgot to congratulate you on passing your test. Congrats!
CAROL...are you out today on a safari at the office looking for Mickey? LOL! When I was a little girl, we had some mice (or meeses) in the basement and my dad had a pith helmet. He would don it every morning and go on a safari in the basement to check the traps!
JUST LIN...you have some frosting on your chin!!!
Maureen LMAO @ your dad going on safari in the basement! I love the old movie "Arsenic and Old Lace". One of the characters goes down to the basement to dig the Panama Canal. LOL
Joey It's just your very basic buttercream frosting.
1 box powdered sugar
1 stick softened butter
1/4 cup(or more) baking cocoa
1 tsp vanilla
Enough milk to get the consistency you want. :)
Maureen I probably do have frosting on my chin! I tried to get Lani to take some of the cake home with her, but NOOOOOOOO, she left it all here to taunt me!
Happy Saturday Owls.
Zona, Thank you for being a friend ♪♪♪ I loved the Golden Girls and the theme song and I love today's blog. It is making me think about the old shows I loved.
Cheers, Fame, Full House and the Jeffersons were also shows and theme songs I loved.
I have noticed that the first year a show airs and it has a theme song that in subsequent years the theme song is often shortened. They even did that with Cheers after a few years.
Doesn't anyone other than me think it's ironic that I grew up in the Beaver Valley?
'weenie: I think you're right about those special effects... LOL!
Bear That was me talking about the special effects. I would think that growing up in a Beaver Valley would be a little daunting! LOL
Hello to:
Brrrdee, I hopw it warms up for you.
Mo, I am anxious for Jimmy Fallon's show to start too. I really dislike Conan and will NOT watch him.
MEK, Have a good lunch with the HOwl's.
Goldie, Hart, IBB, Joey, Tinka, J/L, Bear and all who land later.
I am off to celebrate my sister's birthday at her favorite Mexican Restaurant. Yes she is coming too. Have a great day everyone. BBL
Just_Lin: thanks! sounds easy lol
The one and only time I've made it, I used chocolate chips and cream lol
I like your version better!
Hey sacbarb! LMAO@Beaver Valley
Happy B-day to your sister sacbarb! Eat some mexican food for me.. I love it!
Justlin, I love Ferguson! I watch Letterman when he's not on reruns.
Joey, awh shucks, thanks, you look cute too ( AND your avatar lol).
Whabbear, I'm here waving at you ~~~
I didn't know Jimmy Falon was doing a show. What time? Late night?
MARY...Jimmy Fallon is taking over for Conan, when Conan takes over for Leno.
Good morning everyone. ZONA, a fun post that brings back so many memories. My most sentimental is the Sunday Night Disney song, When You Wish Upon A Star. I immediately go back to my living room floor, lying on my stomach, with my head propped up on my chin.
Hey Joey, this is the version I use to frost brownies:
In a small sauce pan, cream together 2 Tbsp softened butter, 1 cup powdered sugar, 2 Tbsp baking cocoa, 1/2 tsp vanilla, and milk as needed for desired consistency. Then heat it on the stove until frosting looks shiny. Pour over a pan of brownies or drizzle on angle food cake. Let set. Yummy! This makes a darker frosting, which I love, than the first version.
I think my head may have been propped up by my hands under my chin.
SacBarb~ You sister has good taste! Nice of you to let her attend! lol. Have a good lunch with her. Tell Mary/Mich says "Happy Birthday"!
Whabbear~ OMG! Beaver Valley!!
Lani, I have just gotten spit all over my keys thinking of your head being propped up! Kinda scary too lol!!
Slani ROFLMAO!!!! Ichabod Crane has nothin' on you! What a lovely childhood memory! Okay, I'm crying now!
BIRDEE BRRRRRR, I thoroughly enjoyed your one woman show.
At work I used to break out in song. I would sing things like The Love Boat or The Brady Bunch, only I never got past the first line and I sang them lounge style.
I think Brian Williams should replace Jay Leno's 11:30 time slot. That man is so funny with his quick wit.
Thanks MO.
LANI...relieved your head is safe and secure!! You could be on to something about Brian Williams.
WOO HOO! I got another upside down 69!
Lighting the cig and taking a long drag!!
MARY & SLIN, LOL so, now I have the same picture in my head, that is apparently not attached to my body..
Yum JL! Thanks again! That one sounds divine too lol
99!
100! Okay, I've probably had 30 comments today! LMAO
***whispering*** Don't tell Lani but I've got her coming back over here this afternoon under the guise of finishing the puzzle but I'm really going to force her to eat cake. :)
hehe JL! Take pics haha
Joey Congrats on 100!
Joey Congrats on 69, too!
LANI & JUST LIN...when you finish the puzzles do you clear coat them and hang them up? Or do you take it apart and work it again another time?
Maureen I take it apart, seal it back up in its box put it aside to go to Goodwill when I have a bunch of other stuff to donate, too.
I think I left out an "and" in that last sentence. At least I still have my head, though. :)
HARTLDO, Enjoy the day.
I love your OWL JOEY.
Was your friend back today CAROL?
MO, Was your father calm in the basement, or was it more like the father in A Christmas Story, in the basement?
SLIN, I guess I should get off the computer so I get my butt over there.
MO... Don't let SLIN fool you. She re gifts.
Ya SLIN, A head full of chocolate!
Joey: I love that video of the little girl saying Bye-Bye to Bush!
Congrats on your 69!!!
Get Well Soon Mr. Mary!
I had not heard a thing about Jimmy Fallon's new show! Of course, I don't know anything that's going on these days. Someone told me we had a new president? LOL!
Happy B-day to your sister sacbarb! I would love some Mexican food right about now. I've been binging all day. After a terribly difficult week, I'm eating my stress away.
Oh my...I kept forgetting to say Happy Birthday to SACBARB's sister.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
HARTLDO...Hi! SO nice to see you. I am glad you had a binge day! We all need those once in a while. I have had a graze day today! And the day's not even over yet!
Hart and Maureen Too bad you don't live close. I'd be pushing this cake on you. ;)
JUST LIN...you wouldn't have to push too hard on me!! I am half tempted to hit the gross-ery store and replenish!!
Hartldo~ Mr Mary just got out of the sauna. He smells better, but still looks like hell lol!
I better go play Nurse. I think he thinks he's dying! I will make him a hot toddy and he should perk right up! When I get a cold no on notices lol! BBL
Hi Everybody!
Congrats on first Birdee!!
Zona, love those theme songs! It does seem true that they are not like they used to be.
I hope everyone is having a great Saturday. I am!! :)
Mek: LoL at the high temp. How appropriate! Now let's only hope the other 3 hours didn't go "100" miles per hour to get there. I am sure they won't go "25"!! haha
Mo: Thanks for the congrats on passing!
Donna: Yay for you taking a day off. There is no good reason to go in an unheated car when you are just getting over a sinus infection anyway!
Tink: Love seeing you back..yay,yay,yay! I hope that you have a great day with the grandbabies too!!
Yes, Carol, Lani mentioned it but I am dying to know too. What happened with Mickey? Did he ever "finish his business"..in the bathroom?? ;) Hopefully your exterminator took care of the "paperwork"..hehe..oh gawd, I just crack myself up sometimes....
Mary: I hope Mr. Mary gets to feeling better..amazing how they seem to get sicker and feel worse than we ever do (well, according to them). haha..men...have...very. .low...pain..thresholds!
120
Hi Bebbi!
Mr May was hungry and wanted something HOT to eat (easy now!), something to open up his sinuses, so I drove to town and got him some very spicy Chinese food. Now he will have a sick tummy to go with his cold lol!
Carol, we need to know the "rest of the story". Did Mickey meet his demise or did you cross your legs all day ha ha!!
I am home, had a great time but I missed my nap and I am going to bed. What a wimp I am.
I am sorry I haven't named anyone today but I love you all.
Zona - My favourite theme is from "Mary Tyler Moore". "How will you make it on your own?". It became my personal theme song. Hope you are having fun.
VIG - Have fun on your next adventure. Call me when you can.

Mary...that made me laugh..I about spit out my hot tea... "...now he will have a sick tummy to go with his cold..."....too funny!!

Hey Shirley!! Those are great ones. I have to agree with Tink too, I love the Mary Tyler Moore one. That is my theme song too at times. I just love it. LOVED that show so much!
I haven't read all the comments yet!!
But - Tucson survived the Owl meeting....... they are on their way back to phoenix!!!
FUN - FUN - FUN.......
lol - I got the QOTD~~~
Just Lin - I want CAKE!!! I would have taken half home for the team!!
LOL
Temps felt WAY hotter than 69 - just looked up our high - 70!! oh well!!
I can't stand Conan either -
SHIRLEY...loved Happy Days and Laverne and Shirley! Thanks for the lyrics.
MEK...details...we want details!! Spill it sistah!
So, we have all heard of water boarding...but I'll bet you haven't heard of caking before. Well, I went over to SLIN'S house and got caked!
Speaking of mice in the bathroom....The veterinarian who SLIIN and I work for caught a mouse in her bathroom. She injured his leg while catching him, so she brought him to the hospital for a procedure to repair the wound. True story.
Lani, that is too funny! I can just see it's little body draped under a mouse trap with Mickey in a leg cast LOL!!!
MO - LOL - what happens at the Olive Garden stays at the Olive Garden!!!!!
:-)
let's just say --- a good time was had by all!!!
pics are posted!!
Hi Hooters!
Zona, what a fun blog! I LOVED The Monkees, and their theme song!
The Love Boat was another favorite.
OK now I have to brave signing onto Myspace to see the pics from the blogger lunches yesterday and today!
Congrats on first today Birrrrrrdee!
We have been out looking at houses for MR. EBJ's mom today. We found an adorable place, priced right, so now we need to get her down here to show it to her, and hopefully grab it.
bbl
EBJ how nice to hear a happy house story. I hope it works out for you.
MARY We also had a vacuum that sucked insects into it and then we let them go outside. We were definitely an equal opportunity veterinary hospital. I hope Mr M is better soon. Although we know it takes men a much longer time to heal LOL.
Did you guy dance on the tables at the Olive Garden???
BEBBI you must be so much fun to live with.
BIRDEE BRRRRRRRR, Every time I see your avatar I have to put on a sweater.
Hi everyone-
Can't stand Conan O'brien
So happy the Owls had a good time at Olive Garden- going to go look at pics.
Donna, so glad you got a day off. Take care of yourself.
I loved Mary Tyler Moore's theme song too.
I have baked up a storm today, taken a HUGE load of stuff to Goodwill and made a big batch of stew for tomorrows ice fisherman. Crazy ass men. Now we women are smart- we are going to the nice warm malls. :) Just have to heat it up and some french bread and we are good to go when they come in to thaw.
Jodi- in case I forget to tell you- did you know they are moving Plato's closet to Odana road? Thought you and Sam should know.
Hope you all have pleasant dreams tonight!
Hi Everybody! :O)
Mickey has left the bathroom, I met the exterminator at my office today, he laughed out loud, when he saw how I baracaded the bathroom door. I asked him to promise me when he opened the door to kill Mickey, that he would not let Mickey get out.. His Answer "Can't promise that" My reply "Oh Shit"
He opened the door as I stood at the other end of my office, and declared with glee... "No Mickey"
it seems where the pipe is for the sink there is a small opening the bug man thinks that is where he escaped. My SSO and the bug man put steel wool in the opening of the hole so Mickey can't climb back up.
I got brave enough to go closer to the bathroom and with that my SSO, came up behind me and grabbed my leg, I scream like a crazy women and smacked him in the
head... :O)
So, Mickey is gone and to that I say Good Riddance....
Whew.. One hellava day!
YEAH - Mickey has left the building!!!
:-)
Lani,
Put on a sweater when you see Birdee's Brrrrr.. LOL
Mek,
Oh, the secrets that Olive Garden must hold.. :O)
and yes Mickey is gone, hopefully he is with Minnie, and she it beating the crap out of him for leaving her...LOL
Lani - no dancing on the table!!
MO - seriously, we drank, we ate, we talked, we laughed and laughed and laughed.....

Preparing for funerals, suck.
Carolyn pooping in the potty for the first time today-blessing.
Who knew poop could be a blessing?!
Thank you all for the thoughts and prayers. I really really appreciate them.
My grandma and her siblings all have passed away right in a row and it has taken a beating on our family.
Uncle Rico- 2006
Uncle Leo- 2007
Aunt Gloria- 2008
Now my grandma-2009
I'm visualizing them all eating pasta right now with my great-grandma.
Iteach,
I am thinking of you and your family.. My deepest sympathies...
Iteach,
Hooray for Carolyn pooping on the potty, that is great news..
Now if only we could teach Birdee to do that.. :O)
I am off to bed...
See ya all tomorrow...
Woo Hoo! Mickey has left the building! :)
MEK I wish I could share my cake with you. I can only get Lani to eat one piece at a time and I am eating way too much of it myself.
Donna/Hart asked me to pass along this sad news.
Her father passed away today..
Please continue with your thoughts and prayers for her and her family!!
Thank you.
Hart---
Thoughts and prayers are with you and your family... {{{HUGS}}}

MEK Thank you for passing on that very sad news.
Donna, I am so sorry for your loss. :( *HUGS*!! My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Iteach and Donna~ We are so sorry for your losses. Our prayers are with you and your families~
Tina_in_az, Dianne_in_az, and Zona~
We haven't read all the comments, but did want to tell you that we had so much fun this evening at dinner~ Oh....and lunch wasn't bad either~ :)~
We had SO MUCH FUN at Olive Garden.....but......what happens in Tucson, stays in Tucson! :D

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh~ I really needed that....Mr. Z likes Di better! :(
oh yeah.....I really liked the theme song from The Jeffersons~ :D
Good Morning Everyone...I am at the hotel waiting to be picked up by TINA AND ZONA for another day of fun. They are really corrupting me...Mr D will probably send me back.
I have to tell you for being a contender for the Super Bowl town/state, I have only seen three Cardinal shirts and one hat and one of those shirts was on MEK!! I brought a Bronco hat for Mr Z to go with his Bronco shirt and he has had it on all the time..even the hat...(ZONA says he sleeps in it). He is so nice and cute..We just call him Rambone!!
The weather is perfect as it was snowing some when I left Denver. Our lunch was so fun yesterday...great to see MEK again..I am so happy meeting my new friends. It is really fun at night when we are planning our next day that noone wants to get up before 11AM...true night owls.
We might go to the movie today and venture to find some Cards shirts for my grandsons..if we can find anywhere to buy them. This is very hard for me to continue to be for them in the Super Bowl. Boy, if we were in Denver there would be flags flying, tents selling merchandise on the corners, houses amd cars decorated...heck, we do that when we AREN'T in the Super Bowl. It was funny at Olive Garden yesterday, I had a Bronco bag for MEK and someone in the restaurant saw it and came over to tell me how much they loved the bronocs and then the girls' grandmother came over later to tell me again. Yup, they are everywhere!!!
I wanted to send out my condolences to DONNA AND ITEACH. I am really sorry for the loss you both are going through right now.
Ok, my ride is here now. Have a good day today.
