  1. I just scanned for viruses. My Colts site has been extremely slow. Wondering why. Anyone else experiencing this??

      MACs are just awesome. BTW I need to thank both BrentMC11 & Radiogirl personally since the postal worker just dropped my unexpected Cristmas gift: A new Colts cap. Thank you both very much. :)

      I appreciate the card too & what the outside envelope said. It make me chuckle. I will definitely call you both up to say thanks again for the kind gesture on your part.

      PS I will wear it this weekend as a good luck charm to ensure a victory against the Cowboys. Come on I...

  8. Big night here in Colts land: Kids making pizza while Big Daddy watches. It will be so much fun. They have ordered their toppings. I need to run to the store. What is YOUR favorite pizza?

      Pineapple and ham my favorite

      The pizza was awesome....I may need to try pineapple again...especially if my friends like it so much...:)

    4. southwest1

      southwest1

      The pineapple offsets the meat & cheese & it gives your taste buds something sweet to munch like a salty & sweet pretzel etc. etc.

  9. Radiogirl is off until Monday! Heading for the farm for sun and garden work...maybe some fireworks. I want to thank everyone on here for the fun I have here every day! Enjoy your 4th of July Colts Nation! :)

      That's the problem with extended holiday weekend just when you get used to the time off & put your feet up the darn things ends. LOL! Anyway, I hope that you & your family had an awesome time doing next to nothing except relaxing. That goes for all my Colts family on here too BTW. :)

  10. Made a day trip to the farm to check the garden...WOW! 46 zucchini, 26 cucumbers, 20 tomatoes, some peppers and 6 yellow squash...watermelons on the vine...pumpkins and honey dew melons coming on. Some creature is eating the strawberries...:( Great start to 2014...need Zucchini?) :)

      BrentMc11

      My wife has don a TON of work in the garden, and the kids helped me pick all of the 'produce.' Sure glad we took an early trip down.

  11. Happy Birthday Brother Jay! I hope you are on a lake somewhere fishing! Enjoy!

      Nice! Happy Birthday Jay! I'm a day late...Story of my life...Ha! Ha! Seriously Jay, you rock my brother & I want nothing but good things for you. Buy a lotto ticket & see if it hits. I even promise to not ask you for any money if you become a millionaire overnight. :)

    2. BrentMc11

      BrentMc11

      I don't SW....I am an old man...I need that lottery money :)

      Yes, I suppose that we could all use a nice influx of cash I guess Brent. No argument there.

  12. OK...gotta spill the beans...new puppy on board. Yes this makes four since the avatar has been feeling better. She is a pure bred Golden Retriever puppy named Kandi: A name for all seasons :) She is so soft and sweet. May need to call on Nadine to help me get a pic up soon :)

      2-3 decades back we briefly lived with my sister.

      We had three dogs.

      When you opened the back door it looked like a prison break.

      MAC: My white lab and Border Collie/Lab mix hit the door hard when the kids get home...and door bell ringers :)

      The old avatar is upstairs lying on his special blanket most of the day. He has seen better days :(

  13. Little League baseball upon us. Nice day to practice with snow flurries and 35!! Nick...get ready buddy...time to start hitting the baseball this year!! :)

      SW: It is actually frustrating just how strong Nick is. He knows he can hit it a mile. Getting him to cut down his swing..hard at 10. We will get there.

      100GFB: Love it: Willie Keeler.

    4. alawai

      alawai

      It's all about contact. Like you said he may be trying too hard during or swinging too hard during games and some may have the tendency to close their eyes when swinging/trying too hard.

  14. Tough decision coming pretty soon on my lovable avatar. My big mean German Shepherd Que has seen better days. What an awesome friend for 16 years.

      The tough choice if often the right decision in this case. So sorry, I hate the thought of having to put my dogs down someday. No man should have to lose his best friend.

      Thank you everyone!! She had another great night....I think she kind of likes me or something :)

      Nadine: Not been to Broad Ripple Park. Have been by a lot. I like the Fall Creek Rd park...not a ton of dogs there and plenty of room to run.

  18. Five day weekend with the most beautiful wife on earth! This is awesome...and 2-4 inches of snow coming.....farm???? Sounds like a plan...:)

      It is a honor & a privilege to know you & call you a brother Brent. I never had the pleasure of meeting your mother, but she played a crucial role in molding the man the are & for that she deserves praise & recognition my friend. May you find peace & tranquility in her loving presence that never ever leaves you.

  20. Make a Wish: I posted a thread and status update last week about the Make a Wish Foundation teaming with The Smiley Morning Show to make sick/terminally ill children's dreams come true. The goal: $350,000. The result: $528,000. If anyone contributed from my posts I am very very happy! Thank you!

      Jessie & Katie seem like caring & well adjusted kids. Both Denene & you had something to do with that Brent. Please take a bow. And yes that DJ was very funny. :D

  23. I saw this written as a prayer in the Indianapolis Star. To not be religious I have taken out some important words. I feel it applies to all of us here on the forum.....other than maybe the 'loving' part :)Help us today to be mindful of what we say, write and post. Help our words today to be truthful, edifying and loving."

      Thanks for volunteering your services for others Brent that was very nice & noble of you. Hey HCF, maybe you & Brent can work on Project 2 together. 2 heads are better than 1 right? Team work as the old saying goes. I'd even be willing to throw my hat into the ring for contribution purposes too. Why not? Sounds A okay to me man. :)
