I remember it well. California Pizza Kitchen at the Long Beach DAN

babysit. Does that count for last year or that forgot how to multiply.

Three years since my husband and I had a dinner alone. My father did watch the

boys for

us when he was in town on April 1st, but it was for the FEAT Night of Caring

dinner &

auction. I was on the auction donation commitee, so I'm not sure that it counted

as a

" quiet evening " !

The last time I had dinner alone with my ‘husband’

was right after my son was dxd.  In May 1998, so 8 years ago.  The respite

worker (she was an RN too!) screwed up and my kid ended up in the ER. Tried it

again 2 weeks later, another ER visit.  Never did it again.  Just not worth

it.  I have been out many times since then with friends, but not a romantic outing

alone with a man kind of date.  At this point, I might eat a man alive and

swallow him whole.  Roflmao

My last serious relationship was in 2000.

we broke with Gavin as one of the factors in that.

When I get a significant other... then I'll worry about going out for dinner

ok, ok, in all fairness I have met someone wonderful

but a couple months ago that would have been my answer...

Rob-

LOL!!

I actually thought it was sweet what you

wrote. Not sure if you were pulling our legs or not though. I’m not a

religious person, but as I’ve gotten older, I’ve learned to

appreciate those traditional values.

I don’t see myself as much of a ‘fruitful

vine’, more like ‘a reason to drink more wine’ and ‘the

children are like dandelion plants round thy table’ . Beautiful, but all

over the place, LOL!! ;o)

womb is his reward.

Our feelings are WOW we're parents! Our only son is seven

and that feeling of joy in our hearts and sense of God

blessing us just won't go away. Maybe we are rare birds, but our

sense has always been this is really something we both dreamed of being most of

our younger lives. We did marry a little later in life if that makes a

difference in attitude.

Speaking of NUTS...maybe somebody could send CDC the message at the rally. Somebody will be smart enough to figure it out.

Check this out:

In December 1944, during the siege of Bastogne, Belgium, McAuliffe was acting commander of the 101st in Gen. Maxwell D. ’s absence. The Americans had been holding the Belgian town "at all costs," and on Dec. 22, Gen. McAuliffe received the encouraging news that the 4th Armored Division was beginning its drive north to relieve the 101st. Later that morning, members of the division’s glider regiment saw four Germans coming up the road carrying a white flag. Everyone hoped they were offering surrender. Instead, they presented two pages demanding the Americans’ surrender: "To the USA Commander of the encircled town of Bastogne. . .There is only one possibility. . .the honorable surrender of the encircled town."McAuliffe glanced at the message and said, "Aw, nuts!" When he told his commanders he didn’t know what answer to send, Lt. Col. Harry Kinnard said ‘That first crack you made would be hard to beat, General." Everyone laughed as a sergeant typed up the succinct response: "To the German Commander: Nuts! The American Commander."

Gen. Clement McAuliffe receives the D.S.C. from

General S. Patton in late December of 1944 at Bastogne. (U.S. Army photo)

Between this stoic reply, Patton’s troops from the south, and a change in the weather that allowed air reinforcement the following day, the 101st was able to hold Bastogne. Their victory resulted in the first full-Division Presidential Distinguished Unit Citation. McAuliffe’s actions at Bastogne helped assure the final defeat of the Germans. Gen. McAuliffe continued to serve on active duty, including assignments as Head of the Army Chemical Corps, Commander, 7th Army, and Commander-In-Chief of the U.S. Army, Europe, until his 1956 retirement. He died in Washington, D.C. in 1975 and is buried at Arlington National Cemetery.

Interesting thing about the Beatles...they were just becoming famous when I was cerca 9-10 years old (if I've got my years and memories right). I don't know what the heck my parents had heard about them on the news one night, but I do remember them having a dinner discussion about how the Beatles were going to be detrimental to youth and culture, etc. I left the dinner table and settled in with a TIME magazine article about the Beatles and wondered how the hell these guys will change the world (for the worse, according to my parents). Well, here we are, decades later. About a week ago, an itinerant music teacher who works with my class asked my Grade 5 students (who are cerca 10-11 years old) if they had ever heard of the Beatles (prior to teaching them the Oh-Bla-Dee Oh-Bla-Dah song (please excuse my spelling)). Guess how many hands shot up? Only about 3, and one of them was mine. Whatever influence the Beatles may have had in their heyday, is

probably negligible today, in the minds of our adolescents because most of them do not even know anything about them. Aasa Gilmore <yogilmore@...> wrote: Personally, I prefer the post-Sgt.
