Frankness, I like that and a far cry from some other adjectives I've used to describe this place, thanks for that too! So you too were in the dark for Thanksgiving? Not that I suspect it's much of a big deal in the South of France but still. Hope you made the best of it and I do hope you hang around and chime in from time to time. Cheers back at ya.Samantha Duganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05214278596698698245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4819829113979242722.post-32912922209680980822011-11-29T08:32:04.775-08:002011-11-29T08:32:04.775-08:00Hi Samantha

Don't be silly kid, I'm always flattered when you pop by to see what I'm up to and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for the kind words you shed upon me here. Too sweet and you bet you ass I will be in for that dinner at the Ox.Samantha Duganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05214278596698698245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4819829113979242722.post-77167329365187580782011-11-27T12:03:53.547-08:002011-11-27T12:03:53.547-08:00Hey Sam - It's been a while, I know.

Not to mention the kids and family. However, I consider myself supremely blessed and fortunate... this poor immigrant kid from the total 'hood knows that he is living in the bonus round. Like you, I am also thankful for many things and your blog is one of them.<br /><br />Keep it up. You are a gifted writer. More importantly, you have good and important things to say that mean something. That's a huge deal. Self expression is a good thing, but when your self expression is of this high caliber and quality it is a GREAT thing that should be treasured. Thanks for sharing. I am certain that YOU are high on the list of things and people that other folks you know are very thankful for. I guarantee it. <br /><br />Be well... and let's go to the Ox sometime soon!The Woohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01594372868160231367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4819829113979242722.post-91551356598655551482011-11-27T11:27:04.707-08:002011-11-27T11:27:04.707-08:00Ron My Love,

Thirty-five for dinner yesterday. About twenty for leftovers tonight. <br /><br />Adults telling adult stories and the ten members of the next generation outside in the street (we live at the end of quiet cul-de-sac fortunately) playing hours of soccer, coming in and pausing just long enough to scarfe down some food, then on to the next event. <br /><br />Last night, after my 49ers had retired from the TV screen in utter ignominy, we let the kids watch the end of the Blues Brothers. They could barely keep their eyes their heads although it was not the music but 100 wrecked police cars and the tanks and helicopters in the final chase.<br /><br />Very cool. And obviously, we did have electicity.Voltage Daddyhttp://www.cgcw.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4819829113979242722.post-32381136988089114582011-11-25T13:54:29.069-08:002011-11-25T13:54:29.069-08:00John,
