Another Brother visits Gettysburgh

Timmy went to the battleground tour today

with Seana & the Zee kids. It was a long walking day

and Timmy insisted on visiting 33 of the 476 canons on site...

(so he could catch his breath & lean on them)

The other brother that visited the battleground

was Michael & his lovely wife Mary.

They visited on Super Bowl Sunday when the 

Eagles played the Patriots.

There are no photos of Michael leaning on canons

'cause they were on a heated tour bus w/head phones on.

There are also no photos of Michael

watching the Super Bowl that year.

The bus was stopped at the Valley Forge rest stop on the Turnpike,

where they all enjoyed a pre-paid dinner of chicken, mashed potatos & peas.

It was included in the package deal.

Or maybe I am misremembering the whole thing...

A Brotherly Shootout

The competition was fierce my friend! But in the end, only one brother could win.

Take a look! This epic battle was filmed in SLOW MOTION and edited on an iPhone.

Every once in awhile I ask myself, "I wonder what Eric is doing today?"

and here is in 2013...2 years ago...what is he doing today do you think?

I just checked his where-abouts today,

Eric is on his Island tonight.

His boat is docked

And the Island is secure

But looks like another few bizzy days ahead this coming October

when Eric has to boat to Brazil for a concert.

"It is very, very Hot in Brazil"

I believe I read somewhere recently that 134 countries enter the Tournament.

Note: I got into this through my grand-daughter Amanda, age 9, who is on a Championship

Soccer Team.

USA! USA!

USAmanda!

Pathetic!

What kind of childhood did these idiots have? What kind of education? And what about their kids?

Quiz your kids & Grandkids regarding the 4th of July so if they meet this guy on a pier they will not embarass themselves and sound like Morons!

A Poolside Football catch...Summer days @ Poppys Pool

even cloudy days can be fun

Poppy lets us watch TV & Uncle Pea

says TV turns us in to Zombies

Pools can be a load but when you see your 

Grandkids enjoying it...the load lightens.

Poppy & Nanny are appreciated.

I see it every Summer day.

A surprise visit today...Michael & Eddie showed up...

...as I was vacuuming...and I heard them playing Music on my patio...

We had a real nice visit. Of course Timmy wasn't here. He was enslaving 2 of his Grandkids
at The Shop making Tee shirts. Timmy & the slaves got home an hour later & we went to Lunch.

Me, Michael, Timmy & Eddie left the slaves Home Alone watching TV.

We ate at The Station House. Faith works there but was off today.

Michael paid for lunch...(we alligator armed him when the check arrived).

Came back to my Patio and discussed the following Topics, among other things:

• The 76er's situation
• Vacations
• Wives
• Alyce & Paul
• Retirement
• Dermatolagists
• John
• MRI's & CAT scans
• Our kids & their spouses & BFF
• Ice Hockey & the expense of it 
• How much does an engagement ring cost now-a-days
• Shopping with your wife
• Men's nostril hair
• My guitar playing & the songs I have sung so well
• Alumni Reunions. Michael has one in November. Told me to check out a CD website to see photos of people I have not seen in years. I checked it out. I saw no one I knew after 176 photos until I saw this guy...CD class of '61...

• In the upper right hand corner

Thank you Michael for the Lunch!

The HandyMan Can Do It (headphones suggested)

I am at the mercy of our handyman. I hadn't recorded anything in a long time. I combined the two... (click on the link)

The Handyman Can Do It

I got this guy, comes to my house
he fixes things, he helps me out
I'm not too good, with hammer and nail
when I try, I mostly fail

When we got married, my wife assumed
I knew the basics to fix up a room
there were times frustration reigned
we needed help to not go insane

CHORUS
we got to call somebody
we got to call somebody
we got to call somebody
the handyman can do it

Our kitchen floor has cracked tile
it's been that way for a while
we threw a rug so we don't see it
when friends come over they can't believe it

CHORUS

If it rains, he'll come tomorrow
don't tell the neighbor, he'll want to borrow
I ain't your friend, I ain't your friend

Leaky skylights, bad electric
I'm so helpless it's pathetic
the list goes on, what he can do
my wife is wondering if he'll help her too

CHORUS

A GIANT ripoff!

When I moved here I got a card from GIANT supermarket. I got discounts on food items & for every $100 I spent I got .10cents off a gallon of gas @ their pumps.

It has been sorta hit & miss on the gas discount. Sometimes it would say I have 10/20/30/40cents off & when I got to the pump & scanned my card it would say I got nothing!

Twice @ their Quick Stop locations I complained & they gave me the 10 cents off.

It happened again today! I had a receipt that said I have 40cents off

& I got nothing!

Here is the explanation I got when I insisted they call "Corporate"!

"The discount was already used today by Keelan McKendry."

What?!? I said. Keelan lives in North Carolina & she has nothing to do

with my grocery shopping!

Turns out...although I may have my own GIANT card, it is all tied into the address on file.

For the 3 plus years I have lived here, I'm just guessing, but there

have been about 9 people that have come & gone

And they all had GIANT cards!

It's sorta like if I were a frequent flyer & used Visa

To book a free flight & the airline told me

you have no points left because Maura,

who lives @ the same address & has a Visa card,

used your mileage points on a roundtrip

flight to San Francisco this past Tuesday!

Wh!@#$%!!!
