Afternoon Pops. Afternoon fellas. Caught up on some much needed sleep today. Felt good to just sleep in for a few hours and then, watch some taped shows that the Wife and I both like. Been awhile since we have done that so that was really great.

I hope everybody is having a good weekend. If not, change it up. Do something about it cause you deserve it.

Howdy Pops and all the gang! Actually looking forward to the games tomorrow. Eating some orange and grapefruit off my trees. Excellent this year. Have fun and be safe as always.

 

[LeonDixson]

Morning, Pops and friends. I'm a Jags and Vikings fan today. I would love to see the Cheats go down. God bless Y'all.

Afternoon Pops, afternoon friends and good afternoon to any who decide to stop in later.

Jobbs, I love oranges. Love Orange Juice, everything about Oranges. I'm diabetic so I can't have it but man, you don't know how I envy you Brother!

Enjoy a couple more for me please!

 

[LeonDixson]

Morning, Pops and Pen Pals. I hated the results of both games yesterday. I'm really looking forward to getting back home this afternoon.

Morning Pops. Morning Fellas and good morning to any who may decide to stop in later. Can't believe the Eagles whopped up on the Vikings. Man, it's hard to figure the NFL these days.

Anyway, it's Monday so got some work to do. Everybody, have a great day!

I'm diabetic as well so I have to mete them out slowly if at all. Most I give away but they are very good this year. The red grapefruit is even better this year.

Howdy Pops and all the rest of the gang. Have a great week.

 

[LeonDixson]

Morning, Pops and Pen Pals. I'm back home in my beloved Texas. Here's hoping everyone has a fantastic day.

 

[jobberone]

Howdy Pops and all! Hump day and lunch with brother and sister tomorrow. Have a wonderful day.

 

[LeonDixson]

Morning, Pops and friends. Happy Hump Day. Go forth with joy in your heart.

Enjoy the lunch with your siblings, @jobberone

Afternoon Pops. Afternoon Fellas. I hope everybody is having a great day.

Wednesday so you know, it's down hill, to the weekend, after today.

Jobs, enjoy that lunch!

Be well everyone!

Morning to Pops, whom I am sorry I never had the pleasure to make his acquaintance but I am one of the older posters here as well. One of the best things I enjoyed on DC.com, as I am a recent refugee, was the cross generational banter with only the minimum of age remarks.

I don't know how long I was there, and that ain't an age thing at all, but for years I refused to reveal my age for a couple of reasons. One, I didn't want to get into any age arguments or the "old timer" jabs and more importantly, I didn't want anyone laying off on me because I was old enough to be their Daddy or Granddaddy.

And then one day, a thread started about age and I just responded with my real age as I was just turning 70. The responses surprised me as few thought I was nearly that old just by reading my nonsense and to me, that was just me. They knew I was an older guy from my years as a Cowboys fan but not that old.

Bottom line is that quite a few had been responding with a guy that was old enough to be their Daddy and didn't know it. Ain't it funny what we're able to discover when we just don't know?

Pops sounded like a great guy and I do wish I'd had the opportunity to meet him as I was more of a morning crew guy as well. Us old guys need our rest once the sun starts receding.

Hey CC, I'm glad you found this thread. Everybody here are great people. I think you might enjoy this thread, at least I hope so.

I too am sorry that you did not have the good fortune to meet Pops. He was one of those people, that sometime you run across in your life, that makes a difference. However, you have found this thread and that, is at least, a good step IMO. I welcome you and I hope that you are able to enjoy this thread as much as we all do.

Thanks ABQ, this will be my first stop each morning as I always come to the Members Zone first to see if any of our stragglers have made it over.

As a codger I. too, feel it is my responsibility to impart any wisdom I have acquired. And wisdom is just a nice word for "hey, I made that mistake and here's what happened". I like to call it "all that great advice my Dad gave me but I decided I knew better stuff".

Could write a book, but yes. This is always a really good place to start a day with. It's not about issues, it's just about positives. At least, that's the way I see it.

Enjoy........

Morning, Pops and Pen Pals. We going to warm up some today. I was going to play golf yesterday but woke up to 28 degrees so no go.

Welcome to the thread, CouchCoach. I think most of us here are codgers. I'll be 73 next month.

Take care, Y'all.
