    Ah, poor guy! I know just how he feels! So sorry you've had the flu! No fun at all! Fortunately, my Shingles responded quickly to the cream the Dr. prescribed and disappeared in two days -- no return so far!! I love your beautiful fall header! Terrific! Take care, my friend! Hope your week goes well!

    I guess he didn't consider receiving a school T-shirt and hat as helpful. Good one, Peggy.

    Have a good week and Happy Turkey day!

    Oh no, Barney how terrible for you! If only you'd ended up in a hunting lodge over the fireplace...any where...else. Have a wonderful turkey day!

    So the hat probably isn't big as a trophy for him?

    Oh dear! Now that's sad... Glad he can still talk though.

    Hope you are both feeling better and better. No fun to be sick! I can't seem to shake my cold either.

    That's what happens when you drink without proper situational awareness!

    Hi Peggy,

    You actually had me feeling sorry for Barney.

    The poor guy is in a no-win situation, no matter what the tag-line really.
