Carl thank you for the information on the chat room--I will check that out. Kay I think it is the time difference between California and the rest of the subscribers is the reason it seems no one is getting your messages. They are coming through--and I love 'em--Thank You. Would you share the story about your Ancestress who did not ride side saddle either---and what happened to her. That story tickles me everytime I think of it. I don't remember "Behind the Green Door" I must look that one up. I only wore crinolines a couple of times--the one I mentioned was because of a dare Randy Whitley challenged me to do. He and I were Buddies in grade school---and I can't remember why in this world we thought we would dress up and go to the High School Sock Hop; but we did. We had fun too---we got in the line dance doing La Co Ca Racca---or however you spell it---I now know it means cockroach. But it was fun. That is why I always loved Keith Whitley's song "Homecoming '63" so well. Keith made part of that video at the Sandy Hook High School Gym. Randy and Keith are both gone---and I will forever miss them. And Joann it was a real Sock Hop---shoes off at the door. If anyone can think of anything to start a conversation let me know. Brain-freeze has set in on me today. Lynn are you having a good time with your company---I know you are--tell them HEY from us all. A NOTE TO OUR TEACHERS HERE ON LEGENDS: My hat is off to all of you; in today's world teaching seems to have become as dangerous a profession as being a Policeman or State Highway Patrolman. What does that say about our Nation? A sad thought---but one that must be addressed. Sincerely, Ramona
