Deanna: "painting for my Ebay Decor biz" that sounds really interesting, can you expand on that, tell us what kind of things you make? I love artistic stuff!
ReplyDeleteJackie: "double chocolate cherry bourbon balls" any chance you can share the receipe cuz that sounds killer good.
And back two posts or so ago when the favorites thing started somebody said American Gothic was one of their favorite TV shows. Me too! It was like one of the first "Lost" type shows in that it was a serial, was creepy, weird, mysterious, had a strong evil presence and really good character development, I really enjoyed it!
Ice Road Truckers on the History channel tonight if anybody needs a dose of testosterone; my favorite guy is Hugh "The Polar Bear".
Hey lilli, if you have time, get the American Gothic DVD set! When it was originally on TV, the network was trying to pick up viewers and aired episodes out of sequence. It's even better when you watch it in order.
ReplyDeleteAnd Sherriff Lucas Buck really stands up to the test of time! Evil but sexy! LOL!
The actor that played the little boy Caleb was also the quarterback in the movie version of "Friday Night Lights." All grown up! Makes me feel old!
"Someone's at the door."

Gosh...I forgot about that show-American Gothic. Gary Cole catches my eye in whatever he does. Another series yanked b4 its time!
