Random Thoughts, Fond Memories,
Good Times and Inside Jokes

I was thinking about all of the good times we have had and how there are certain words, phrases and mental images that always bring a smile to my face. I thought I would share some of them with you. Most of these will only make sense to a few people, hopefully you will recognize 1 or 2. Many of these are loosely quoted from other people. If you think of any that are not here, please let me know and if you are really curious and want to know what some of them are you can ask but just remember - you really had to be there.
