Another task we (I) often put off for another time; deleting very old emails. While I was "walking down memory lane", I came across an interesting 'conversation'.

Contest for the hour:
Who wrote the following snippet and the year (+/- 5)?

I think Graphic Converter has something similar, though I couldn't swear by
it, since my copy of GC is refusing to start up in Classic and I'm not going
to boot into 9.2.2 just to find out!

Well, back to the grindstone (actually have to go to my 6 year old's play
group...so it's more like "off to the zoo"!)

Yeah...that would be moi. And that 6-year-old is now 24!!! February 19, 2002 that was - we were living in North Andover, MA at the time. And yes, I still have the email. (I do keep emails that in an another time would have been letters - they're a great record)

We had another parade on our street! The great thing is that our neighborhood is 43 houses on a very long dead-end, so any parade coming IN also makes one going OUT! Two for the price of one! :thumbup: :cheer:
The parade of ~10 cars held some of the kids my GD works with. One of the Mother's asked if she could drive by with her children so they could say/yell "Hello". My GD was surprised to see not just one car, but a parade!

I'm not a sports fan. I couldn't even tell what the current "ball" should be "in play" right now (I'm thinking it is small, round and hard and involves odd, geometrically shaped large fields?). But I read this this sports writer quite often. Here is a story about what most of us have probably been thinking about!

Since this is a world wide pandemic, it might be interesting to see how other cultures are affected. Here is how an Australian family handled a canceled a long flight... to nowhere!
One problem for Australians is that nearly every flight is a long one! These kids will now have a much easier time facing that situation. Everyone is homeschooling!

I decided I couldn't put off spraying the flower garden weeds. I hope to have a nice crop of flowering weeds soon! :doh:

And I enjoyed trimming three Sweet Bay Magnolias in the back yard. Especially when the kids next door started climbing the fence and asking lots of questions. They started giving me math questions! Their Mom says that's because she's been helping the 6 and 4 yo work on addition and subtraction without pencil and paper. :thumbup:

Someone sent my wife the following quip:

Before this crisis, I had to leave the dog alone for much of each day. After seven days of isolation, I understand why he chewed the furniture.

I have to hand it to the hucksters; they are very imaginative. I wonder if a similar product has been invented for "professional ladies"?... :toothgrin:

Guess the minimum age for a drivers license in the US! The 'sign' is a giant version of a TN Drivers License, awaiting a picture of the new recipient! :clap:

Had intended to spray some Round-Up on the grass (weeds) growing between the asphalt street and the concrete curbing. Just the part in front of our house, not entire street nor even the other side of the street! I decided to wait a while to see if our neighborhood would fit in the forecast "40% chance of thunderstorms". Help often comes to those who wait. :blush: I see on my weather web site the following:
                           Max Rain Rate: 2.13 in/hr at 9:21 am
    Calculated Sky Conditions: Torrential Rain

Theoretically, Round-Up needs only 30 minutes before it can be rained on... The weeds have another 24 hours before I attack them. "I'll be back!!!" :rant:
