Brooklyn Back When - Open Thread

Hi Millie, Suzie and Judy xxx and hugs for you too~

Glad to see you are all doing well... and we're celebrating a birthday
Happy Birthday Joey P!!!

As Patsy says, we're always reporting bad news here. So let's turn it around and look for reasons to celebrate.

Was feeding the animals.

Blue Ray is great, I hear.

We bought a new DVD player for FL (not Blue Ray) but it has a feature that enhances the quality of any we play, a brings it up to a Hi-Def quality.

Hope that makes sense (or the guy in Circuit City was playing with us).
One of my motivators to move - a new TV and TiVo, so I'll be able to tape my shows like a big girl and not my VCR. :oops: I know I'm probably the only person on the planet still using a VCR. It goes well with my 8-Track Player (Nah)

Franny: Did you see the class picture with Rosalie and me in it? It's back a few pages.

be right back J... on phone trying to change auto insurance to FL
don't multi-task as well as i did when i was a 'working woman'
lost something along the way.... my brain

Where are Patsy & Terry??

Hi Francesca - that video was tooooo funny!!!!!!

Hi Millie, Suzie, Janet, Joe, Patsy and Terry.

Peek in later

Hi Judy

Can't get to the next page, lol.

I POSTED AND IT GOT DELETED

Hi Sweetie

Francesca --- You are not the only one with a VCR..... I still tape my soap opera every day...I don't even know how to do it for the week. every morning I take the same thing...A couple of years ago my VCR was dying...I went to the store and the kid behind the counter almost laughed at me, because I asked for a VCR, just a plain old VCR no DVR DVD or whatever and they are not easy to find.. I went on ebay and bought one for $15.00 and the thing came and it was broke....I had to fight for two months to get my money back...It wasn't so much the $15.00 it was the principal that someone would send me a VCR broken.. How dare they!!!!!

Well still looking for one that works.....

Judy

I POSTED,
FRANNY THAT VIDEO WAS TOO FUNNY
AND
MILLIE WAS GOING TO WEAR AN OUTFIT LIKE SUZIE'S CAKE FOR THE NEXT REUNION WITH ALL THE EXERCISE SHE IS DOING. U GO GIRL
I SANCED TO SUZIE'S VIDEO TO DANCING QUEEN LOL

I still have a VCR as well as a DVD and DVR

JANET -
i'm still 'on hold'

i was checking my route last night... and while i knew i was leaving on 1/20 and it is Inauggration Day (sp?) - i didn't realize that we will
be driving through Washington DC during the heart of the activities,
with millions on the road... Now I definetly will head down hugging the
Western states. Will catch up with you later or tonight.

And one quick answer == yes, I just checked you and Rosalie's picture
when you mentioned it.... I can't see too much, the pictures are so small.
I'll check again later. I can recognize Rosalie because I remember her
graduation picture from when we were kids.

I think I am to the left of her.

I thought you were staying away from I 95?? Take 78 to 81 to 77 South

I just checked page 271, the bigger picture is at the bottom amd yes, I am to the left of Rosalie.

ok folks, i just join facebook from work--try to put some photos up tonite

I AM AT WORK, JANET. SOME OF US STILL HAVE TO WORK TO SURVIVE LOL

MY BOSS IS AROUND, SO CAN'T BE ON HERE TOO OFTEN:)

hey patsy,we can't be working to hard if were on here

VCR'ers
Judy, Janet -- yeah. I love it, but when I was in Brooklyn w/my sister last week she taped on her TiVo and it was such a pleasure.

I'm sure you can relate - I have all these tapes around and don't label them so when I go to tape again, have to see what's on and be sure not
to tape over them.

One night I fell asleep while watching something I taped; when I woke up,
my grandmother was sitting in her rocking chair - and then all the family was dancing around. (Now mind you, my whole family has passed, so I thought "Oh my, I died during the night.") And my grandmother died in
1966 before any technology - so how could this be????

Well it turns out my cousin made a copy of a tape for me from 16mm and I
taped over it. And the end of the movie was still in-tack. Scared the shit out of me.

Sorry I have to go.... Will be back soon...

My best to you on this day!

I HAVE A DVD PLAYER, BUT I ALSO STILL HAVE A VCR.. DOUBLE DUEL VCR/DVD PLAYER. I LOVE IT!

There she is and now she's back to work. Have a great day Patsy.

YOU'RE RIGHT JOE !

Franny, now that is funny.

THANX, JANET. TALK TO YOU ALL LATER

OK Patsy.
