Tom,

Talk about self inflicted pain....lol.

..

I don´t talk about - I show the video of the incident later !!

Just have to cut out the scene when the rope torn and my **** hit my chin...

I do miss Candid Camera from the "old" days.

Now being a "Much Younger" man than you two fossils (Bill included). (Fossils is in quoted in a kind way-because I do respect my elders)
When I was a "VERY YOUNG" lad I do remember the one show where they filled a VW Bug up with 80 gallons of gas and the gas station attendants response was funny.

Gm Tnet how is the guy sleeping with that on his computer

"gold boy" I see your signature says that you are a "proud descendant of three Alamo soldiers"
I don't know how many soldiers who fought alongside Davey Crockett and Jim Bowie survived, unless you're referring to the Mexican soldiers who survived?
Excuse my ignorance but could you explain?

As usual, you did a good job on that ! I almost missed it.

Dang, I "did" miss it....until I got to this post.


I'M SSSOOOOO ASHAMED!!

Not sure I'd wanna be that closely associated to ANY president, but I s'pose the first ones were pretty good guys. ...At least compared to the last 100 years!



Wow, that's some VERY impressive lineage! So you just celebrated San Jacinto Day recently??

Sure do wish Texas was like the old days. But now with the advent of air conditioning, too many danged outsiders have come in and TOTALLY changed the fabric of the state!! Granted, there have been some good arrivals, and there were a few bad ones already there before that, but last I knew, Texas is just like any other place anymore....for the most part. Just can't get over these folks who move there and in just a couple years THINK they are Texan!!

Takes a lot more than ridin' a machine and having a Texas address to be Texan!! My hat is off to you and your ancestors.

PS - for any of the Bush clan reading this, THIS INCLUDES YOU!!
...We can make an exception for Barbara and Laura. They're OK in my book.

Then you are also related to CSA President Jefferson Davis, whose first wife was Zachery Taylor's daughter, and CSA Capt John Taylor Wood, who was on the CSS Virginia (Merrimack) during the battle with the USS Monitor, and later was the Captain of CSS Tallahassee, a very successful Confederate raider.

100% true!

gold boy,

Very impressive pedigree. I believe the Mormons have a very extensive website with histories of families going back 7 generations you can use for free.

Gents,

That probably explains why about 90% of metal detectorists are guys just basically big kids that can afford fancier toys to search for pirate treasure....lol.
