I agree, this is a great group. Thanks for allowing me to hang out. To satisfy your curiosity: I had not been very nice to Janice until I found out he dar was Santa because those were pretty mean times and she was not "cute". I have not seen her since 1959 and as with many girls if she grew up to look like her mother she is still not "cute". I was so superficial back then.

Some of my best Christmas memories are the many road trips from Texas to California to spend the Holidays  with my mom's family. In an old car, my dad liked MOPARs, loaded with gifts traveling the two lane highways through all the decorated towns along the way. We sang Christmas songs in the spots where there were no radio stations. When the snow was bad we traveled in small caravans so if someone got stuck they would have help. You would sometime see the same people at gas stations and cafes or broken down by the road. Life was great!

 ::)I am still superficial, Sixball. Are you saying Janice had a "butter" face? I am probably a little younger than you and I probably grew up in a more urban area (Philadelphia) but things sure did seem alot simpler growing up, and alot more fun. I wish I could get that point accross to my kids.

Chopper I'm going to take a stab at the butter face you used to described Janice. You could look at everything Janice had -but her- face. Or something like that.

I'm thinking "butt or face" like you couldn't tell the difference. At first her parents thought she was twins. This isn't right she was a girl and we just didn't like them yet. She was probably a normal looking little girl but she didn't have a 22 or a 410 so was of no interest to us.
I remember her dad better. He was the rural route delivery guy. Sometimes we'd see him along side the road sorting/reading mail and shooting jack rabbits in fields with his US Postal Service issue 1917 Smith & Wesson .45 ACP revolver. He was good with it. When my Granddad in California sent post cards somewhere in the writing he would say"Hi WINDY". Granddad grew up in the area and knew Windy.

In other words she was just a butt ugly girl

Yea, you guys pretty much got it "she didn't have such a bad body, but her face........"

Not bad at all Ed  8 points is better than 2  you must pat yourself on the back. I used one of those compound bows 80 lb and after about one month of shooting three times a day. It was like getting slower and slower to the point that even these old tired eyes could follow the arrow all the way to the target  I could even see it veer right or left. I gave it up it was way way to slow and then the other day a good friend of mine shows up with these EXOCET cross bows  Now let me say this about that  man they are fast and furious. I think i should have one of those But my hat is off to anyone that can clean kill at 30 yards with a compound bow  vette59jdwl

HAPPY THANKSGIVING everyone!!!! I know I, like the rest of you guys will probably be a little too busy tomorrow eating and drinking to post
I'm not a hunter, and you can't shoot them where I live, but I get deer all year walking right through my backyard. My dogs go nuts. One of my dogs almost caught up with one a couple weeks ago. I don't know what she would have done had she caught up. Probably would have had her butt handed to her.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Enjoy the time with friends and family!  We're having our Thanksgiving meal at our house with my Mom and Dad, my sister and her husband, our kids and grandkids.  It's great to have four generations at the same table.  Hope you all enjoy the day
