Good morning everyboomie.
Boy howdy. Trying to remember the days is driving me batty.
Thank you MaG. I though you'd never give us a bat smiley.
Today is Thursday, which is another day, just like the other day.
Don't ask me which day.
I'm watching a movie right now, even though someone told me if I take a picture it'll last longer.
A picture doesn't move me.
Ok that's enough of that tripe.
There! A little tripe to go with your corn.
Have a happy day everyone.
