Brooklyn Back When - Open Thread (Continued)

Hiya Brooklyn!

Most of you are big time football fans and most likely heard of the recent passing of controversial Al Davis (of Flatbush). Like him or not, he was a born winner. He was the first team owner to hire a Hispanic and Black coach and created a winning dynasty. Perhaps some may not have liked his methods. But, in truth, he was no worse than other team owners. He truly was a winner.

Judy question was watching supernanny yesterday and they had a family from staten island last name banjani any relation?

I chose to relax this weekend I did make plans for tomoro that got cancelled my honey had a family emergency...

Today my aunt diane is 65 yrs young

and Uncle Dennis goes for surgery (prostate cancer) on the 23rd please add them both to your prayers

I hope everyone can get out and enjoy this beautiful day. Robert's youngest brother who passed away was Annette's twin Nicky. Willie was truly one of the most kind hearted person you could ever meet.

Anthony, I hope they can schedule you for your eyes soon. I am still waiting for your number.

Suzie, it is so awesome seeing you post more lately. I just had my first FaceTime conversation with Bobby Wiecezak. This is another of the things that Steve Jobbs gave us before passing on. If you have family that lives far away, do yourself a favor and make sure you each have an IPhone or IPad 2 so you can actually talk to each other face to face

To our Queen Jeanette, keep going to the beach in RI, those ocean breezes are working like a Fountain of Youth on you.

Luv you all.

Hi Danny ...you made my night! I wish you werent so nice

I'd be breaking your chops along with Anthony's...LOL

Hi Judy, Patsy, Terry, Helen (love the new pic) and Everyone

Prodigalson....good to see you here today. I wish I can respond to your post but, I dont have a clue about Football!

ANTHONY HOW WAS YOUR DAY TODAY? DID YOU COOK ANYTHING GOOD OR WAS THAT YOU I SAW IN KFC'S DRIVE THRU THIS AFTERNOON?

GOOD MORNING ALL

not sure why I am awake so early on my day off

another prayer request for my honey al and his family

thanx for the compliments on my photo i feel great these days enjoy the day will check in later

I thought for awhile this weekend I was going to have to ask which one of you knows how to build an ark. It rained Saturday & Sunday. Sunday in particular was like a monsoon!

We are now (in this area) officially over 50" of rain for the year to date. Actually it is more then that but that is the official number. The soil here is sandy so the rain gets soaked right in to the ground over a short period of time. In Tampa it piles up quicker and they get street flooding during rainy season because of the street paving on a denser level then the surrounding areas.

Hey Anthony. Isn't your wife worried that after your eyes are fixed, a handsome brute like you will be able to move around where all the girls will be after you?

GOOD MORNING ALL HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!

BACK TO WORK WEEKEND WENT TOO FAST ONCE AGAIN

More good news..my youngest son Michael also passed his series 7 test yesterday!!!!!! I hope my two sons will make lots of money so my husband and I can retire!!! LOL

Hello. We have had a few very nice days following the deluge of rain. We sent the rain up to you all.

Got the results of my tests today. Good & Bad. Passed the Echo test with flying colors. Failed the stress test. Looks like I have a blockage in at least one of my arteries. Will be scheduling a catheterization from my groin up to my heart to determine how many arteries are blocked. I will either get stent(s)or Open Heart surgery. I am rooting for the stents!!! Will keep you informed... :-({|=

HI GUYS..

JUDY..WONDERFUL NEWS.. CONGRATS TO MICHAEL ON PASSING

HIS SERIES 7 TEST !!!! :cheers:

WARREN..I AM ROOTING FOR STENTS TOO FOR YOU. WISH

YOU DID NOT NEED EITHER OF THOSE POSSIBILITIES.

PRAYERS FOR YOU [-oB [-oB

GLAD YOU PASSED THE STRESS TEST.

THAT COUNTS FOR SOMETHING..

HI TO ALL..HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A GREAT NIGHT...

Hi All and good night All
