For some reason, *cough, cough* it appears that some comments are in limbo for awhile.

Each day older comments show up in the spam filter. Comments here are moderated so I get

to them when I can. Lately older comments randomly appear and I have "published" them

but , again, they are to older posts. 

Now for some MEMES from all the contributions....

 Irish notes  "This is from her website which hasn't been updated from 2011. It seems she was around for a bit then just left." >>>>

 Michaela Rae is a 16-year-old guitarist with a decade’s worth of playing the blues, picking up skills quickly and expertly, making her a rising star to watch on the Colorado music scene. Her debut CD, Blues with a Backbone, was released in June 2009, and showcases her “plenty solid” guitar playing (Westword). Michaela has appeared on numerous esteemed stages from the Blues From The Top Festival to the International Blues Challenge, and she’s currently working on new material for her next album. In her spare time, she races dragsters, runs track, excels in art and math, and loves being a teenage girl.

Hey Guys If'n you could pass this on, to including Irish (don't have his email here)

Greetings Me Droogs N Droogettes!
A quick Update Courtesy of Phil and Cederq.  I'm OK, Divemedic's grandson notsomucho.  He's having some serious medical issues, and that put getting bigcountryexpat.com on the back burner for which I'm happy to wait.  Just wish the kid would get better and prayers for him, as no six year old should -ever- be in a pediatric ICU.  The sit-rep is here: https://areaocho.com/my-granson/

So, as for me and Wifey, we be headed North to Tennessee -again- to meet with the new lawyer.  That's tomorrow ostensibly after work.  Having to break out the cold weather gear as shorts and t-shirt ain't gonna cut it, raised in New Hampshire or not, my blood got too damned thin between Iraq and Florida.  Hell, it was 50 degrees here in Tampa this AM... a  mite chilly for me...

Gearing up is a stone bitch too, as we're in such an outlier situation what with everything teetering and tottering worse than a playground toy.  Bare essentials or 'heavy loadout'...  decisions decisions... I do know that that at least a week of grub, and water filtration, plus 'party favors' are going along.  Better to have than want Aye?

That being said, all the prayers and donations have meant the world to Me and Wifey, and Adriana as well.  We actually get a visitation thankfully while we're there, as it took some arm twisting by some behind-the-scenes 'stuff' that made it possible.  So hopefully good news there, as well as the new lawyer.  Gets me hopeful which as of late has been in short supply.

So More Later I'm The I.R.
