Good morning everyone and Happy Friday. It's another raining day here in TN. 
What do you have on your windows ? We don't have any windows because our house is in a hill. On our 2 front sliding doors we have the built in mini blinds.
How many calculators or adding machines do you have in you home ?
Just one not including the one on my computer which I have never used along with so many other features on my computer, lol.
In Honor of CD reaching 10,000,000 posts !! I though it would be fun to ask
Do you remember the first post or thread here on CD ? No, I don't even know how old CD is but I'll check it. I was a lurker for more than a year before I posted anything. I must have been shy, lol.
Have you ever gone to the movies by yourself ? I think I may have about 15 years ago but I'm not sure. I don't go to the movies anymore. I never had any qualms about going out to eat or to the movies by myself. Heck, if I want to do something I'm going to do it .
1878 - A group of 100 lawyers got together at Saratoga Springs, New York and formed the American Bar Association. I bet the majority weren't as crooked as a lot of them are today.
Have a great weekend.

What do you have on your windows ? Blinds on a couple, icky shades on a couple but they're always up, and nuthin on the rest. I'm not into window treatments - a bit risque for a city dwelling indoor nudist! 
How many calculators or adding machines do you have in you home ? No adding machine any more but probably five calculators or more floating around here somewhere
Do you remember the first post or thread here on CD ? erm, nope I wasn't here when CD started - is the thread still going strong? Maybe I missed something on this question  Doh - wasn't awake enough yet - ummm...I think my first post was at the Texas forum and they were nice to me.

Hmmm I wonder if I can talk any of my friends into going with me !!!
I would love to go with you ! I have longed to see the east coast for many a year.
But first lets see what kind of "waves" we can create with
