    Oh, thank you Starby. I dreamed of dancing with Patrick Swayze to that one and it was XXX rated - they would have cut that out of the film 'Dirty Dancing' for sure.

    Love http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/36/36_3_16.gifyou!

    Ahhhh Patrick! You and I are more alike than you know! He has always been my heart throb! I will have to remember to tell you the story of my first love John. He still make me weak in the knees to this day, and if it wasn't for circumstances, I'm sure we would've still been together. I know he feels the same way, because I saw him not too long ago, and we were both visibly shaking, and at a loss for words. He looks so much like Patrick in Roadhouse, it is scary! I was so sad when I heard Patrick was ill.

    Glad that Nicki is a little better, and yes, I will continue to send those vibes -for you too honey, so that your back won't be too much of a pain.

    C.U. when you get back Starby...

    (My fave part in the dance is at the end when he mouths... "and I owe it all to you"... makes me melt... uhmmm I must have turned the thermostat up... whew!

    STRINGER... this one is for MARTA, so let her enjoy, then start learning the words...


    YouTube - can i touch you there...? - michael bolton

    Marta dear, this is what I call CFM music. Let Stringer explain what that means.

    Enjoy it, both of you.

    MARTA dear, here's another one that Stringer should be singing to you often.

    YouTube - Soul Provider - Michael Bolton

    If he does not sing, he can let Michael do it for him.

    Actually Chery, ha ha, I have been singing all my life. First time was up front by myself in church.

    I have been in about six or seven bands, cut two records (but nothing really happened with them and they were a long time ago) and did a lot of gigs all around. Along with some minor theatrical work. This helped pay my way through college.

    And a secret that I have kept from most here, I did some modeling off and on over the years when I was younger...

    Not the sort of life I envisioned for myself in the long run though.
  • Oct 21, 2008, 12:18 PM
    Chery
    WOW Stringer, another thing we have in common - I sang with a band for two years after winning a contest. My mom didn't like it, but it was a lot of fun - that's how I met Ozzy in person.

    I'm so happy for Marta - she has someone who is not boring at all, lucky girl!

    Night,night..

    Stringer

    No... I am indeed the one who is very lucky Chery. She wants me to go with her for a walk now so I think I will take a break and go.

    You may or may not remember some of the people that I knew and palled around with; Lou Christe, Tommy James and the Shondells, Bobby Vinton (The Polish Prince) and some others...

    And, you are so correct about the "friends forever" part... yep
  • Oct 21, 2008, 02:42 PM
    starbuck8

    Well I thought I would be gone... but still here! This happens every time. My Mom decided to go do different things, and now I guess everything is rescheduled to do for Thurs.

    I don't know if she is still going to take puter back with her today or not. Jeeepers!. I've been waiting all day, and it isn't very easy for me, especially with the lack of sleep lately, and my back and hip, and without pain killers to do this to begin with... which I'm soooo looking forward to! HA! ;)

    Now I have to do it all over again on Thurs! Plus somehow fit in a haircut and color, and go and find an outfit to wear for family pics!

    I guess we all have more in common than we thought. I used to model too. I was more of a fashion model. I remember one time, I was in a show where the models all had to have a certain "glam" look of the 50's and 60's. Marilyn Munroe etc. This guy cut my hair, and said it would be 'fabulous" lol! It was awful!! I was apparently the Jean Harlow girl. But what I really didn't understand, was we wore these outfits that litterally looked like gunny sacks!...green gunny sacks. They were hideous! I was so upset with my hair, and...well the whole show...I left after the first day. They had the nerve to try and bill me for the haircut, because I had signed a contract. I don't think so!!!......wasn't payin for that!

    I also sang a few times in my brothers band. I really don't think I have a good enough voice, and was always nervous and afraid what the people would think. It has to be a certain song, in the right key, in order for me to be able to sing it where I'm happy with it. Either that...or several shots... preferably tequila...LOL!! So, I guess the 3 of us would have had a blast with our "talents"! ;) LOL!

    Stringy... Who the heck doesn't remember Tommy James and the Shondells. Even the teenagers! They might not know their name, but I'm sure they've heard a song or two... probably re-done versions though I suppose.

    Stringer

    Yeah, those guys were cooool. I sat in on two practices with Tommy (Tom) and became pretty good friends. He is still traveling 6 months / year doing the shows though.

    Didn't care too much for Lou Christi, real self centered and always throwing slams at other people, he kind of felt like he was the center of everything... got pretty boring...

    Hey kids, how's tricks?

    I hope everyone is doing well, there are too many pages for me to read back so I'm not going to do it. ;)

    Momma C, Stringer is still picking on me, he stole my favy whippy and won't give it back. He also smacked my wee butt with it and said Giddyup, why?

    Can you tell him stealing isn't nice, and my bum hurts. :(

    Mean boys, why do they always pick on us giwls? :(

    Let me get this correct now, you are complaining about that right??????

    Me complain? I don't complain, I advise forcefully, coerce, conjole, conspire, but never complain. I just want my whip back. :(

    You should be so honored... Because Suzy has a special place on my wall next to my desk (I told you this before tsk... ha). She smiles down at me with appreciation that I Stringer/Sheriff saved her. She always has this itty bitty beautiful little smile on her tiny little face...

    YES (Slaps face to come out of it... ) she is happy now, and I told her that you have abandon her... because you haven't even mentioned her name in over a month now... she is convinced that her place of honor is with me on my wall.

    Shucks... she is just beautiful... AND I might add, ONE of a kind... the IS no other SUZY.............NONE!

    Sorry to tune in here a little late, but I just read this.

    I am fairly new to this forum, and I had no idea, Chery. Just so you know, you were a great help in the questions I asked. Your replies were always 300 words long, lol. You really gave me a lot of useful advice, and thank you for that. The graphics at the end of your posts were also always so comforting! I love those... You stayed with me all the through my situation, even when I was stubborn sometimes... Thanks for helping me through that :)

    I am really sorry to hear of this. And you will definitely be in my prayers tonight. :)

    Thanks for all the help, Chery! And stay strong! Even in the few months I've been here, I have seen you change dozens of lives with your advice. It is a real great achievement, and I can only hope to help as many people as you have, Chery!

    Again, sorry to interrupt your converstation here, but I just had to say my piece. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

    Thank you for thanking me JR. :)

    We all love Chery so much, she's such a special person, always kind, tough, caring, sensitive, she is whatever she needs to be to get through. We all love her so much, for so many reasons. To me she's a surrogate Mom, I wish just once I could give her a big hug. If I win the lottery that wish will come true. :)

    From what I've seen of your other posts you are a kind caring person as well, you have a good head on your shoulders and you always give good advice, you are a valued member on AMHD. :)

    I think most members here would like to do that... She really does help out so many people. She never gives up on anyone, and has an incredible amount of patience. I don't know how she does it!

    Thanks. :o

    I still look up to you, Chery, Starby, and others though! You are incredible here. Sometimes, I see a question that I can't even begin to think of a solution for, and say to myself, "Whoa! I won't touch that one..." And within minutes, You guys have posted the perfect answer. Absolute genious'! Of course, you guys have so much more expirience then I do, but I'm learning!

    Thanks for the compliment, it really means a lot coming from you :).

    No interruption at all. This is where my AMHD family can talk to me any time and I am honored you joined in. Also glad to know that I helped you on your way to healing, dear. That's what I like to do is to help others as best as I can.

    It seems that all of your prayers are helping me a lot because my monster has taken a break and stopped spreading so fast. My doctor said it puts me in the upper 10% with this medication - so I know all of you have contributed the greater part. I've never felt so welcome and loved before in my life. My little family and my AMHD family mean the world to me.

    If you are so inclined dear jr.. Find my address way back and send me a post card from Toronto. I collect them for my grandson so that he can have the biggest collection in history to remember his grandma by.

    Alty, lottery or not, you are already with me - always in my heart! And, so are the rest of you. How's Chewey doing?

    Last night, I got a call from Calgery (sp) and it was so wonderful to hear the voice of one of my 'inner circle' sisters. She's without a PC for a while and hope it won't be too long. But her Nicki is doing better which just made my day. I think we'd still be talking if I didn't have to get ready to see Alexander for a few minutes - he and his mom have colds, so I have to wear a mask - I think I'll do as she suggested and draw a picture on the mask so that he won't be scared of it. I plan on coloring one for him to let him take home and play with it.

    She's going to be forced to be physically busy for the weekend, so please send her good vibes to prevent her back and hip from hurting her too much.

    I've been busy the last few days and really missed you..

    Another weekend... so you all know that I want you all to relax and have a wonderful time.

    Hi Chery,

    I sent this message via email to you and it came back that you are having "computer problems"...

    "I am glad that it is still up and running Chery."

    "I am having problems lately also; it is taking a lifetime to download pages now, and I am starting to see my pages 'freeze', I have to close so many pages just for it to work, I have to reboot 4 to 5 times a day, and I have used the “system restore” so much that it won't do it anymore….extremely FRUSTRATING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I may have to call a nerd in……"

    Good morning sunshine...

    I have been reading your posts on the "political" thread... way to go girl, straight from the heart. I was going to give you a greenie but it wouldn't let me.
  • Oct 25, 2008, 08:58 AM
    startover22
    Thanks... but I find myself a little too "ordinary" in there. The issues seem so simple to me, but then you add all the other nonsense bs and we get strong debates. Oh well, I am staying clear for now.;)
    Have you done the disk clean up and defragmenter? Have you deleted old stuff and kept what you wanted? Have you gotten a good anti bug thing installed?
  • Oct 25, 2008, 09:09 AM
    Stringer

    I may have to take drastic measures I fear. I have to keep a lot of info for business and that may be the problem, however it says that my disk is 63% clear... and I am seeing some funny stuff happening; like the pages are moving around, etc. Plus what I said above, I may have an intruder.

    For example, as I am typing this, the page moved three times and I had to move it back so I could type...

    And it won't let me download windows upgrades or patches...

    By the way, my security just emailed me that Microsoft has just released an "emergency patch" for a bug that is out there that can effect your computer without you doing anything. Go to Windows/Microsoft pages to find it... but it won't let me download it. It isn't them, it is my computer it takes so long that my computer times out...

    EDIT: Yes, I always defrag and clean the disks, run CCleaner, NOD32 (anti virus) and Sammsoft to clean it up... along with the "go-back" Microsoft program... I hate this...

    But... it is Saturday morning, although cloudy and rainy... but Saturday!!

    Ok that is all I got... heehee
  • Oct 25, 2008, 09:32 AM

    Good suggestion Start, I have thought about an additional hard drive to back up and I haven't done it. I think that I will call my "puter guy" Monday morning and get it started and download everything to it... thanks for reminding me hon.

    Have a beautiful, inspiring, delightful and loving Saturday sweet.

    Marta and I are going to run some errands; prescription pick up, dry cleaning AND a political sign for to complete my Halloween yard display... ha ha.

    A lot of my neighbors for the first time have put out their signs and now for the first time I am going to also... THEY started it!! ha ha...
