Guess, we can focus on the quality of brew and tini tasting rather than having to concentrate on quoting-101 in the near future! :D :-bd

I hit the back, back, back on my browser button so I can return to my place before replying to someone 20 or 40 pages into the future! Hope this helps! I was wrestling with the same thing and ended up having too many tabs and browsers open.

Still here. Gotta go tomorrow. Priorities. My Mother, Mom, Big 'E', She who must be obeyed, requested (no,make that ordered) my presence for the express service of plucking pears for my aunt's annual making of pear preserves, in donation to the church bazaar. I was going to be made to feel guilty if the request/order was not complied with. I now get to go up on the mount, to mow grass, on tomorrow with out benefit of piscatorial delights. My beverage delights can await my return home, which will be as early tomorrow as possible. I'll need those bev's.

You have the scorecard and can't figure out a way to come in first?

Miniature golf in Winter Park last year - we had a hole with a loop-de-loop so we created a new rule. If you used the loop-de-loop and got a hole in one, you got 6 strokes off your score. It was the only thing that kept me in the game. :D
BD - I thought about this story today while talking with my kids, my son and daughter both love to play and are heading to the beach for a week with my X in the land of mini-golf (Mrytle Beach) and go-Karts! They are excited and they must have brought up mini-golf about 1800 times today....... :D We'll get to do this also, but I know they will have fun playing......, but thought I'd share, I could relate but was afraid to hear what I had not done, so I got brave and asked my lil man and he says, Daddy, you always say you will help me with my leggo starfighter vehicle "about 18 million pieces" and you "never" do.... :-? :-? :-? #-o #-o #-o #-o :-? :-? :-? ..... my response.... Son, I hear ya, but remember you wanted to go swimming for hours, we play Wii at your Aunts, we come home and it's late and your tired and then you want to do everything else but work on your leggo project, sooo, ... although Daddy has helped you get most of it together and worked with you to this point, is it really fair to say that I "never" do what I say I'm going to do! Well, Daddy you have helped me so no it isn't fair! Son, trust me, the next time we are together, we will focus on finishing up your star fighter vehicle, deal? DEAL! :D Life is good again!!!

Finally got caught up and now it's time to go.
New work week runs from Tues-Sat. I've been getting home just in time to go to bed. Now I've yard work to do up on the Fescue Farm. I might decide to stay the night and spend time teaching fish how not to bite. (Survival techniques for the Largemouth Bass)
I most certainly will be teaching beer bottles how to become lighter in weight and lose that 'cold feeling'.

Hey, devildeac, what is the appropriate beer to accompany one's 99th post before reaching 2000? :P
