Geeeezzzz I said I was gonna keep up with this thing when I started, ha, I should've known better. So I didn't post over the weekend, nothing exciting happened any way. I had a nice Father's Day. Kids gave me the cards and drawings they made for me at school, they brought me breakfast in my room and I got an IPOD..SWEET MAMMA!!! It's nice to do Yardwork with, I have a strap for my arm so it doesn't get in the way...that was nice!
ON with our 80s Stuff;
What happened today in the 80s???
1980 Roberto Duran takes WBC welterweight title from Sugar Ray
Leonard at Olympic Stadium in Montreal by unanimous decision
1982 Israeli PM Menachem Begin arrives in Washington
1983 Yankee Bobby Murcer retires
1986 Drs at Bethesda Naval remove 2 small benign polyps from Reagan's colon
1987 Johnny Carson marries 4th wife Alexis Mass
1988 NYC WABC-AM becomes the flagship radio station of the NJ Devils
1988 Price is Right model Janice Pennington is knocked out by a TV camera
Ummmm..ok I know this is getting routine, but WHO FREAKING CARES about any of that...Damn if we were so starved for news in the 80s that if any of this was headline stuff no wonder I tuned out LOL...ok PERHAPS Begin arriving in Washington was of some importance...I'll have to see what successive days tell me he was doing in Washington at the time because damn if I can remember. The best thing on that list is Janice getting knocked out by a TV camera...OMG I would have LOVED to have seen that...you think Bob Barker paid off the camera man to do it, or was this before their lover's spat?? Speaking of Bob Barker...that guy is a FREAK of nature. I happend to see The Price is Right today, and God Damn it if that guy doesn't look better than me... if getting your Pets Spayed or Neutered can do that for ya, I'm headed to the pound!!!!
I think I'm going to set up a photo section here and really go through my 80s pics from the Army and the places I went to...I didn't have a camera, can you believe that, I didn't buy a camera, so I relied on others to take pics, so I'm missing pics from alot of cool places. But as I go through them I'm sure I will have a ton of stories to tell. I will start that this week...so if you're an avid reader of this blog (like anyone has even seen it) look for the pics in the next couple of days.
See Ya Next Time!

Ok now why oh why is it that half the stuff I try to post on this site comes up twice? I'm thinking it's because I'm trying to do too many things at one time and not paying enough attention. Or maybe I have ADD or ADHD? Or maybe I'm just a dumbass on the computer? I'm going to go with "all of the above" and say I'm sorry. You don't have to read any of my BS twice, even if it's posted that way. Hell you don't even have to read it once.
Pottsie I love your blog.... I saw your pics you posted and very cool. Always were the ham in every bunch weren't you?? Hahah :) You keep doing what you're doing and entertaining me and everyone else! We love you for it!!!
So in the "Feet" pic is that you on the far right and waving? Because if it's you, then you have some pretty damn Big Feet ;)
