LOL!!! Way to go for the gold, Ron! Nicely done. Canada is doing quite well in Sochi (heard it was 70 degrees F there today. Wouldn't object to some of that here, with the wind howling and yet another foot of snow being dumped on us...).

I'm on the edge of my seat waiting to see the U.S. snowblower team take to the moguls! Ought to be a sight folks will talk about in hushed tones for years to come! I know the Canadian team is favored, having won the gold in both Vancouver and Turin, but there have been a lot of upsets already in Sochi, and with the warm weather there, I think the U.S. team has a slight edge.

Thanks for the smile, Ron! Great work!!!

Thanks Randy.... My therapist says it's better for Cabin Fever than chasing and attacking snow flakes with the shovel..... :?

I first posted this in the Gallery, and within minutes someone from Admin decided it belongs in the Chit-Chat.
I asked why, because it is a photo (of me) and just doctored with PP. The background and text were added to make it look like a magazine. Darn, everybody does it on occasion. If I don't get an answer by tomorrow I'll repost it in Gallery and see if it offends them again. Try not to upset us Geezers!!

No idea why it would have been moved, unless they thought it was a political statement, which it obviously is not. I thought it was funny!

Well, I did get an answer from Admin:

"It's not about breaking the rules. That posts looks humorous. So it seems like GCC is the more appropriate section." :?:

Keep an eye on your Hector picture....
And I'll keep watch on my rubber ducks, penguins and all the other funnies I posted on the Gallery. :?
