Reading up on the USS Bucyrus Victory (AK-234).
And I was Born and raises in Bucyrus!
Never knew about this Ship before.

My GrandFather fought on Okinawa and I wonder if he knew this ship was there?

I like the balance theory and plan to use it when the occasion arises. That's assuming you don't have a copyright on that terminology, Markus.

Have no © on this terminology, so you use it freely.

I have no Idea how I missed this. I wanted to extend heartfelt Happy Anniversary Wishes to you and Moira. I hope you both have many, many more years together to enjoy.

Not long back from the solicitors having put the final signatures to our wills.

The kids should be overjoyed when they realise we've left them nothing but debt

I was going to ask if I'm in the will. After having read the above regarding debt, I'm checking the box for opting out.

Beautiful and very brave lady especially as she is allowing some strange looking weirdo too close to herself for my liking

^ Great pictures, Vinnie. The weird looking chap in the pictures goes without saying. Thankfully, the lass also in the pictures adds enough class for everyone.



Seriously, great pictures. They make a great looking couple.

^She was laughing: Amazed at the nuptual procedings et al, she had muttered to me: "Oh god what have I done" to which I gamely responded: "No dear, that's the question you'll ask tomorrow morning... When we walked out for the 'binding of the wrists' (scottish style) I told her: "Relax It will all go of its own accord." And it did. The party, 100 guests, dinner, and dancing afterward, was a blast! The groom's uncles and dad all wore their kilts. Turns out Dad and I had met 50 years ago playing Rugby; him for UC Berkley- me for San Jose Seahawks Two of the staff and the photographer had gone to high school with my daughter. The wedding planner had been her sunday-school teacher; and her husband, a Napa jeweler, had made the sapphire engagement ring. Small world!

Ok, Ok. I will give you that. Perhaps I should have said no more weird looking than the rest of us. Still, the beautiful lass in the picture more than compensates for, well, .... never mind. You love animals so, you get extra points there.
