I like the porch sweep Floyd, this infomercial thing has kind of gotten people to talking - you know what I mean! Too Much free advertisement - are the profits going to be shared by members of the Cutlass or has some secret Swiss bank account been set up. You need to watch for forgeries - you know Aunt Bea worked for some of them people. You have to watch those people who make stationary.

SD - I know it will surely rain here today if you wash your car. Thanks !

Did they make a moulage when they come to investigate about the broken winder at the bike store? Or did Barney not want to run around making a big moulage out of it. Now remember if they make a moulage, you don't want to make it to runny. Barney don't like runny moulages.

Well Little Opie went to the audiologists again today. He was fitted with ear molds and they are going to try a cross hearing aide. Does that make sense homemaker? I don't know about the audiologist at Riley. She just don't seem to be sure of much of anything. Help me out homemaker, give me some names. I am in distress. I want something done and I have run out of resources.

Lovely weather today in south central Indiana. Have a good Friday. How about breakfast in the a.m. I'll have blueberry "cupcakes" (the m word that rhymes with puffin wouldn't go through)
good and hot from the oven. Maybe a little fresh orange juice and some yummy hazel nut coffee. (Not insinuating any thing about your mental health Hazel.)

Let me know if you didn't and I'll try to catch you again. I know what cross hearing aids are and sometimes they work and sometimes they don't. Depends on the person.

I don't know if mine is the mitral valve, or if it's prolapsed or something else, but the doc mentioned two leaky valves. Will have a thallium stress test next Friday to clarify things. Then if I get his clearance, will be having a big old surgery after the first of the year. Actually three things in one. I'd rather get it all over and done with at once.

It says that she was made in 1972. My sister had one of them when we were coming up.

Fun Girl, I had migraines for a while. Haven't had one in 3 years. My doctor put me on Fiorinal to prevent them. Sure did help. I have headaches, just not really bad ones.
Hazel and Romeena, sorry to hear you have leaky heart valves.
Hello to everyone.
It is sad about the airplane crash today in New York. God bless the families of the passengers and crew and those hurt on the ground and those who lost their homes.
NN, we also have a need for rain.
Everyone have a good night.
Miss Ellie
November 12, 2001 - Msg 3235: Hey Yall I hope everybodys doing fine tonight. Floyd, My neighbor and I were born on that samr day about 30 minutes apart. Our Moms had rooms next to each other. Plus a really good friend of mine I met at work has the same one too!Hey does this mean we get to have two cakes on the porch?? I think it should! Thoughts and prayers to NY. -- Salty Dog
November 12, 2001 - Msg 3236: Good evening, porchsters! NN, I'm glad those fires are under control. What a terrifying thing. I'm not afraid of much, but when it comes to fire, it's a different story. When my kids were little, I used to wake up at least twice every night, and go around the house sniffing for smoke. Not quite phobic about it, but close.
Tom, every time I read one of your sweet messages, I thank the good Lord for sending you our way. You are very special, and we're proud that you're "one of ours".
Prayers for those involved in the newest airborne tragedy in NY. How much more can that city take?
Have a great week, friends.--Romeena
November 12, 2001 - Msg 3237: Hey to the Porch. Romeena, how are you? Good to see you. Hope all is well for ya, and I sure do pray for you.
Hey Salty Dog, I got us a half hour infomercial lined up for 3:00 Sunday morning on that new T.C.N. network. Hope you are up for it cause you is starring in it. I'll have Miss Ellie git you some of that female war paint and do you up real fine. We need you there for a testimonial Hazel.
I don't know if that will help your feet problem Helen. I'll have the boys at the lab check it out and get back to you.

November 12, 2001 - Msg 3238: Good evening porchters, Asa, I'll be ready. The only prob is that I am going on vacation from Thurs till Sunday so I might be a little late. But I'll do my best! What do you think of earrings...think they're too much??--Salty Dog
November 12, 2001 - Msg 3239: Nothing wrong with earrings S.D. I like em. Maybe we could get tiny little AD2K's made into earrings for you to wear?

Asa
November 12, 2001 - Msg 3240: Hey that will work!! We should do a whole clothing line too!! Picture it shirts, sweatshirts maybe even jackets? Dare I sugest golf tees?? Why we could be starting our own enterprise or something! Let me know what you think! Later--Salty Dog
November 12, 2001 - Msg 3241: What will Asa and Salty Dog think of next? Well I just been in a baking mood to beat the band.(Bobby Fleet and His Band With the Beat that is.)
I take spells when I just want to never set foot in the kitchen again and then once in a great while I will cook for days.

I do appreciate Mavis and all her hard work on the Cutlass. Wish I had the know how and motivation to take on a project that large. Right now, I am just trying to cook up a party for a couple of economically challanged famalies at our school. We want to have a BIG Christmas party and let them be the guests of honor. I think it would be a great thing for our youth to tackle and would show them how lucky they are in the process. Particularly Little Opie, who thinks that if he sees it on T.V. and he likes it his pa and I should run out and buy it immediately.
YOUNGUNS' --WHAT YA GONNA DO WITH 'EM!

November 13, 2001 - Msg 3242: Salty, I think they wear Earrings in New York. Go for it! We'd best pray for NY too. God Bless all those involved.

Hey Mrs. Wiley.

Asa
November 14, 2001 - Msg 3269: G'morning, all! Mavis, I wish I could bring you my little Sugarplum. She's gonna have to get a bath today. Yesterday I walked into the den just in time to see her little fluffy white rear end, with its waving white plume, sticking out from between the end of the fireplace curtain and the fireplace wall! She was trying to investigate the birds she heard in the chimney. When I hollered at her, she disappeared into the fireplace entirely, walked around in three inches of ashes, then hopped back out and tracked across my carpet! Didn't even have the grace to look ashamed when I scolded her, the little brat. Now her legs are all gray and grimy, and I'm too tired to bathe her, but I must.
I wonder, do you think I could modify the AD2K to block my fireplace entrance so she can't get in there anymore? Or maybe I could use it to stretch her out enough so she won't fit anymore? Long as it didn't hurt her, of course.
Welcome, DUD! Always room for one more here on this porch, and if it gets too crowded, we'll just hook up one of those AD2Ks and stretch it out some! Handy gadget, that thing!
Everybody have a great Mayberry day. We're prayin' for some rain here in our corner of town. -- Romeena
November 14, 2001 - Msg 3270: Good afternoon porch. Is everyone having a good day? Romeena your little Sugarplum sounds like my little one except he went running through the cow pasture one day and you could imagine what he came home smelling like!! Asa I hate to do this to ya but I'm leaving tomorrow for a few days on vacation. I hope I aint putting you on the spot none. But I'll be back on Sunday evening. So, I hope you can handle everything at AD2K enterprises inc. while I'm gone. Keep the porch hopping for me while I'm gone!! Later--Salty Dog
November 14, 2001 - Msg 3271: Romeena I would be glad to groom the little darlin, hope yer carpet ain't light colored. Salty Dog You got yer sack of sammiches? Your penny that's been runover by a train to protect you in yer travels? You need that stuff whilst yer on the road ya know!
*Mavis
November 14, 2001 - Msg 3272: Salty, pack an extra suit and your good shoes - just in case. Asa, I'll fill in for Salty whilst she's gone! Let's see now... the thread goes thru the hole in the need... hey wait a minute, where's my glasses? Just know that I can't do nothing about mildew.

~ Mrs. Wiley

November 14, 2001 - Msg 3273: Hey Salty Dog, you been working real hard and deserve some time off so go and have fun. I'll try to hold down the fort while your gone. Do I ever have a story to tell you about Mannheim Steamroller, you won't beleive it.
