Re: Help for some boys in Afghanistan
A few years ago, one of our news anchors (a "kid" I've known since he was in high school) returned as a Major with the National Guard MPs in Afghanistan. He started a drive here for sports equipment--baseball gloves, bats, balls, basketballs, footballs, etc. to be sent to the troops. We ha...

Fort Myers Beach
Hey, any recommendations for funky bars, good seafood in Ft. Myers Beach? Has to be in walking distance from the bridge since we're staying one night at the Lighthouse before embarking for 8 days in Key West via the shuttle boat.

Re: Who's going to Pittsburgh 6-23-09??
TEN DAYS TO KEY WEST. Guess who just went to the gym today for the first time in a month. hehehe. Not worrying about bathing suits, worrying about all that walking and biking while I'm there. I know I can make it from the B&B to the Schooner and with a little rest and libations to Capt Tony's, b...

Re: FL Keys / Key West
I've spent the last 40 years traveling around Florida. Sanibel/Captiva are lovely, but just as touristy as KW. My first trip to KW was November 1970 and I absolutely fell in love. Not with "old Florida" but the island life. Since then, I've spent a lot of time on many Caribbean islands and...

Re: Natasha Richardson
My heart and prayers go out to all who loved her. Such a tragic loss in the prime of what seems like a wonderful life. I'm sure her loved ones are wondering why her "time" was now.

We are out of here Friday AM. Thanks to all for the advice and good wishes. We have always had a tradition of making a sign for our stateroom door with a name for our cruises. This one will be named "2009 Carnival Freedom A Lot to Drink About Cruise". We printed up the sign this morning a...

Re: Who's going to Pittsburgh 6-23-09??
Okay, as of now (and 3 bloody mary's in the afternoon) all I care about is that I've survived 6 days of full-time Nana-hood with my 4 year old and 9 month old granddaughters and that my Key West vacation is 12 days away and the Pitt concert is less than 100 days away!!!!! NOW I KNOW WHY GOD ONLY LET...

What an awful tragedy, for any family. Even worse to have to deal with all of this in the public eye.

Thought I'd share: 30 days till Key West!! Is anyone else addicted to visiting all the KW webcams (Hogs Breath and Schooner Wharf in particular)? I get so jealous of the people sitting there in the sun, eating and drinking cold beer...but then I think: "I will soon be one of them!" :wench...

Re: Buffett Video from 1975
THAT'S the Jimmy I fell in love with in 1971--before the CRB. Trying to remember when I saw him with the band in the hinterlands of Georgia--know it was shortly after March 1976, probably sometime that summer or fall. DAMB, WHAT A RIDE!
