  1. Yeppurs, Mr. Oakspear! I'm in! Littlehawk has kindly let us claim the extra tent, so me and the 12 year old sidekick son are coming! We're bringing the desserts! Jardinero
  2. We have one here outside of Indy. I went last year with a friend and 2 kids. Lots of young families out eating picnics and Kentucky Fried Chicken on blankets and the backs of pick ups. Kids running all over the place playing tag and soccer. We brought our blankies and pillows and hopped in the back of the ol' El Camino. Pretty fun watching the movie while looking up at the stars! Brought back memories of being a kid in the 50s and 60s! J.
  3. Hey it worked! I've been trying to get in this thread all day and it kept freezing up my puter for some dumb reason. Working now. Hey Littlehawk - - I sent you a private message. Mike, can't get through to you on GSC. Can you send me a private message? Thanks guys. Jardinero
  4. Thanks, John. Done! I didn't have the NVidia driver. BTW, would you ask Hope to check her private messages (actually can't remember if I put it under you or her; maybe she can check both). Thanks again for the help! Jardinero :)-->
  5. Hi guys. Not too long ago, I read how to get rid of messenger pop-ups, but I lost my note. I recently upgraded to XP and I'm getting them again and need to get them off! They're driving me crazy. Could one of you take me through the steps again? Thank you. Jardinero

    This is for Kit

    Can't remember the name of the college; may have been Laney, but it was Frank Yule (sp?) Field where they played. Wow! You worked at AGE? My mom worked there for years in the credit department until she died in 1981. When were you there? I think she started there in about 1965 or so. And, yes! Good things have come out of Oakland - - how about us??? There were a ton of us from Oakland who got in the Word in the late 60s early 70s. I think Socks (or Mrs. Socks) is from Oakland and probably some other posters here. I have fond memories of Lake Merritt, Knowland Zoo, Fairyland, Jack London Square restaurants, little Mexican hole in the walls that we grew up going to when I was a kid. My dad worked at 27th & Telegraph and we hung out in that area a lot! I was just back there over the holidays visiting one of my aunts. It was great to be there. I love Oakland! Jardinero

    Another Oakland native here! (Hi Kit!) ...and still a die hard Raider fan! Been watching them play since before the Coliseum was built when they used to play at the junior college field (forget the name). Jardinero
  10. They've been out of Washington for some time. Howie is doing something with computers now and they moved to Colorado and lived there for some years. They are now in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Jardinero
  11. Aye Mates: Took my 12 year old sidekick to see Pirates of the Caribbean today. Fun movie - - definitely one that kids will like especially boys. Good swashbuckler flick with lots of action, cool special effects. And for the women out there, there's Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow. Oh, and did I mention Johnny Depp (sigh!). If you want a good old pirate movie - - this is it! Jardinero
  12. Zix~ It's "dame un beso" Jardinero MWAH
  13. Gracias, Oakspear. Tu eres mas afable. Jardinero
  14. Oops, sorry about that. RE: Joe Guarini I know that Joe & Ruthie started out in the 7th Corps, so many of you know him. Please see my post in the "In Memorium" section, as Joe fell asleep yesterday. Jardinero
  15. RE: Joe Guarini I know that Joe and Ruthie started out in the 7th Corps but ended up in the Family Corps - - I think F5??? Anyway, if you knew him, please read the post under "In Memorium" as Joe fell asleep yesterday. Jardinero
  16. ...To loosely paraphrase from "When Harry Met Sally", "I'll have what he's having!" Jardinero
  17. "often disparaging" My dearest Oakspear; No offence meant. When we use it in the SouthWest, we just mean folks who may not know the Spanish language, nothing more. Sorry, coming from Calif. to Indianapolis, I still cringe when folks out here call that flat, round bread we eat "TOR - TILL- ***". Pues, te amo, mi hermanito! Dios te bendiga! Jardinero
  18. Geez, alphakat, Thought you were developing obsessive compulsive disorder! Now go straighten out your socks drawer! lol J.
  19. Walter & Carolyn Crinnion Hey, anybody know what happened to them or what they are up to these days?
  20. O.K. For all you "gringos" out there. "Jardinero" is the Spanish word for "gardener". I love to garden, love all the references in the Bible to sowing seed, harvesting, sowers, etc. Why I chose to say it in Spanish - - hey, I'm Spanish and Mexican, why not? P.S. I sometimes sign out as "Jardinero - - still weeding my own garden" - - that's just where I am in my own life! The avatar was the only "fresh" thing from a garden I could find!
