Good Morning,

It is supposed to be beautiful out today....enjoy!!!!

Well my two favorites on AI are Pia and Stephano.....

Has anyone heard from Anthony??

Peek back later

I love most of them. I like the guy who had a problem last night with his voice, he sounds a little like Rod Stewart but better looking.

PIA will probably win because of the voting...

TERRY, HOPE YOU FEEL BETTER!

WARREN AND CAROL, HAVE A SAFE TRIP TO NY.

Thanks Mary Ann,

Not cooking tonight invited to my friend Diane and Joe's for corn beef and cabbage...Yummy...There goes weight watchers..lol

I agree or the blond that stayed Haley???

Hey Judy, Thanks for looking up the name for me. I am not certain if it was Jack McCarthy but it does sound familiar.

I had my Corned Beef & Cabbage yesterday in a local restaurant that we have been going to for a long time. It was great. Carol had to settle for Soup & a sandwich. She can't eat cabbage and even the corned beef would be a challange for her. By the way I also had Green Beer!

I do not watch A.I., Dancing with the stars or any of those type programs. If I can not find N.C.I.S or one of the shows I like on History or Discovery Channel, I go on the computer and play a game or talk to you folks on the blog. I do like Pawn Stars & American Pickers. They are very different and I get a kick out of them!!! :roll:

Stopped by say hello and wish everyone a great wk. end, I'm heading out for a walk, suppose to hit 80 today!

Sorry to see Karen go last night, very sweet girl and great voice.

Happy Friday all - just came back from lunch - it beautiful out. Only 3 million of my closest friends were strolling Times Square - I really hate the warm weather up here - nothing but tourists staring up at the buildings. Oy...

Other than Pia the women aren't very good - I don't know who's worse Thia, Haley, Karen (guess the voters felt the same), Niami. The guys are better.

Warren I never heard of Pawn Stars & American Pickers. Considering I have probably 400 channels I only watch ABC, CBS and Fox. Go figure.

Well have a good weekend everyone. My laptop is in the "hospital" - a friend is rebuilding it - so no internet shopping for me this weekend. Enjoy!

Hi Karen, I too just came back from lunch, boy it is beautiful out...did not want to come back to work.

Hope everyone is out enjoying the warmth...

Terry- I think you have the wrong shows in mind. PAWN Stars-Not PORN Stars. It is about a Pawn shop in Las Vegas that buys and accepts Pawns on almost anything, especially historic stuff.. American Pickers is about Two guys from Iowa who make a living going around the mid West and South and buying odd items and collectibles from people who collect all kinds of junk. You would not believe the prices for things that you & I would probably think nothing of throwing out... 8)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY FRANNY...HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY
