METV is great we don't have it on dish. You can get it with an HD antenna though. Not sure if it would be good we are about 15+ miles from the antennas and it's not flat ground. Does it work that far and still get a good picture on not flat ground?

Pretty flat in Florida. Don't know how it would deal with mountains.

My friend's husband was better yesterday evening. Coherent, talking, responding, all very positive. He has a long way to go, but it looks better than it did.

Pm me and I'll walk you through the process. I posted the same picks on a local chat board and people are now paying us to do their furniture!

Sent from a dark, twisted corner of the back porch, covered in cobwebs and slightly damp.


That is awesome!!! You might have a lucrative side-line!!!!

Good morning Porch! A little more coffee & getting my nic on & then I'm off to entertain, & be entertained by, Mackelton T. Corgi until Sunday evening! He's gotten better about my web surfing & leaves me to it unless I start playing videos, or talking on the phone. Apparently I'm not allowed to talk to anyone but him! Gotta get up & get packed to go!


" getting my nic on..." OMW Kenna, you've started a GREAT catch phrase!!!!!!!:lol::lol:

It's obvious that you enjoy dog sitting a lot! That's awesome!

So you're telling me the time to 'buy' is 'election day +1'. Yep, The Brit economy sagged right after BREXIT but it bounced backed. :rolleyes:

Mike, that's the whole idea .. sell out, wait for the drop, then buy back .. :) .. you know, buy low, sell high .. ?? :)

My way of handling politics on the porches. When it starts getting so thick in here that I am getting genuinely ...... off I leave the forum for a few months until I can look at the folks that ticked me off without wanting to scream.


I do my best to keep my big mouth shut and bypass those posts.....

One of the most iconic Music Videos ever made, in my opinion, done by Director Russell Mulcahy in 1982 (who later went on to direct Highlander and others)

Part of the script was to have Stevie dance on the edge of a cliff, using a matte painting where an artist paints a background on glass and the camera films the action through the glass, creating an illusion that she was part of the painted background .. at any rate, when filming began at the old A&M Studios in Hollywood, no one thought to bring a piece of glass .. thus, the artist removed a pane from the makeup room, painted it and when filming ended, put the pane back with the painting still on it .. this priceless piece of Rock History likely still exists somewhere ..

.. Stevie Nicks and Fleetwood Mac were so young .. as a side note, in Nicks own words ::

"I went through an experience that wasn't particularly pleasant and I moved out of my bedroom into the little back bedroom that was all...the lady that owned this house had put all this French wallpaper up that was flowers and it was beautifully, beautifully done. It's just a little tiny room and put my bed back on the floor, moved my JBLs [speakers] in there, all my plants... all my junk, everything I had into this tiny little room about as big as this sofa, you know and I just lived in there for about 3 months. And I, it was really like living back in my apartment before I joined Fleetwood Mac...it was ...I'm very comfortable living in one little room with my bed on the floor and kind of lace tacked up at the windows, you know.

Lightening strikes maybe once, maybe twice... that means one time in your life you find a very good friend, and maybe if you're incredibly lucky, you might find a second ..

The clothes I wear... that doesn't change. I love long dresses. I love velvet. I love high boots. I never change. I love the same eye make-up. I'm not a fad person. I still have everything I had then. That's one part of me... that's where my songs come from .. "

Just looking back to a time long gone .. and one of my favorite songs to steep in melancholia when the mood hits ..

I had one such friend. We would agree, disagree and agree to disagree....always there through all the ups, downs, bumps....the good, the bad and the ugly. She was never judgemental, but accepting me as who I am with whatever my flaws may be. She passed ten years ago... :cry:

I like to think that I've been lucky enough to find another ...;)
