[BeatleBob]

Hey Sadie! So Glad to hear from you!! :-) I was worried because of the storms in Kansas!! You're So Welcome for all the concern and best wishes!!! Don't be sorry that it took a while to respond!! I'm just Glad you're Alright!! I see your Internet was down in your apartment for about a day and a half due to the bad weather!!! That SUCKS!! I figured that might be why you haven't been online! I'm Glad you didn't go to the local public library!!! Would be dangerous to travel anywhere during bad thunderstorms!!! And I'm sure the library's Internet connection was probably Also temporarily down too!!! I'm Sorry that you were stuck at home for a little while, just like you were on those Awful snow days this past winter!! :-( I'm Sure it feels So Good to finally be able to go back outside again!!! :-) I can imagine it was boring staying in, especially with no Internet!!! LOL! I know what that is like!! :-( WOW!! I see there was a huge lightning bolt that struck near your apartment's trash can!!! WOW!! It was so bright the whole parking lot was illuminated for a few seconds!! And there was a huge bang noise when it hit!!! YES!!! Very Scary, but Cool at the same time!! LOL!!! I hate when there's huge lightning strikes too!!! Very Scary!! But, Cool to watch them!! Yeah, it IS Funny how last time we talked you mentioned whenever the weather is bad, your Internet connection is usually down!! And that's Exactly what happened!!! Yes, you must be psychic or something!! LOL!!!! ;-) I'm sure you've been used to tornadoes your whole life due to living in Kansas!!! Yes, just like Dorothy in The Wizard Of Oz!!!LOL!!! I see you weren't that surprised a storm started though, with a transition from the terrible winter to springtime weather, just wouldn't be complete without horrible rain first!!! LOL!!! ;-) I know what you mean!!! CRAZY weather!!! LOL!! I'm Sure You're So Relieved that your particular area didn't get struck as badly as other parts of the state!!! I'm Glad about that too!!! Yes, I heard some parts of Missouri were affected too. I'm So Glad to hear that other than that crazy Big lightning bolt that did a bit of damage to the trash can in the parking lot, no actual people or apartments in your complex were harmed!!! :-) I can image that Huge lightning bolt did some damage to the trash can in the parking lot!!! WOW!! I'm Glad to hear that all your neighbors seemed to stay inside during the storm too!!! It sure can be dangerous out there with lightning striking all over the place!!!! I see besides that big lightning bolt, you watched several other smaller ones from your window too! Scary! I see on the local news there were several distraught people, fallen trees and severed power lines in some parts of Kansas and Missouri!! WOW!!! Terrible!!! :-( I'm sure you feel lucky that didn't happen to you!!!! I'm Sure Glad that nothing like that didn't happen to you too!!! Yes, just like BeatleNut9 last year with the Houston hurricane!!! I remember that!!! She was lucky enough to be safe from harm too!!! Storms like these can be Very Dangerous!!! I'm So Glad that your particular area didn't get struck as badly as other parts of the state!!!!! I'm also, so Glad to hear that you were able to get your Father's Colonoscopy done just in time before that storm hit!!!! And I'm So Glad to hear that the appointment went much Faster and Easier than expected, and his results came out All Clear!!!!! That's GREAT!!! :-) I'm So Glad that they told you about the results!!! Yes, you were right when you told your Mother there was nothing to worry about!!! :-) I'm Glad that you don't have a family history of colon cancer!! But, it sure is better to be safe than sorry!! WOW!!! That's Great that they said he won't need another exam for the next 10 years!!! :-) I'm Hoping he will still be alive by then!! I'm sure he Will!! I Sure Understand, though!!! With Both of your Parents getting older, you sure don't want either of them to go anytime soon!!! :-( Yes, I feel the same way about My Mother!!! :-( So, I understand how you feel!! :-( With her being 88 years old and in poor health, it's Very Scary!! :-( All I can do is Hope she will last into her 90's, at least!!! I worry a lot about that!! All You and I can do, is Hope for the Best when it comes to this!!! Thanks!! Yes, I sure miss my Uncle since he passed away!! He used to call me pretty often and tell me funny jokes, and make me laugh!!! I miss that!! :-( Yes, it is Sweet how he recommended my Shrink to me!! Thanks!!! I'm Glad that my last appointment with him went well, and the pharmacy problem is now straightened out too!! :-) I Sure agree, now all we need is for Medicaid to get it's Crazy act together once and for all, and stop charging people when it's supposed to be covering things instead!!!! LMAO!!!!!!

I see that all this talk of the Beatles Anthology is giving you the urge to watch it again soon!!! It's been a while since you last saw it! Me too!! LOL! I see that you also bought the DVD's when they first came out in 2003. I first rented the DVD's from my library! They blew me away!!! I loved them so much, I bought them from amazon soon after that!! Cool that BeatleNut bought the VHS set when it first came out in the 90's, and also watched the series as it originally aired on TV!!! I Love All the parts!! But, my favorite parts are Part 3 and 4, and 5 and 6!! I see why your Favorite parts are Part 3 and 4!!! I Love those parts too for the same reason!! I Love part 6 too when it went into Strawberry Fields, Penny Lane, and the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band album!! :-) GREAT!! I watched Parts 3 through 6 so many times my DVD's are wearing out!!! LOL!!! Yes!! The Whole Series is Amazing!!! I also, love hearing Paul, Ringo, and George's insight and commentary on things!!! It IS So Sad how John wasn't around for it!! :-( At least we heard voice recordings of comments from him during the series along with pictures from the things he commented on, though! At least that! The video footage of them recording the songs "Free As A Bird" and "Real Love" in the studio came out GREAT!!! But, also So Sad at the same time!!! I agree!! It just feels like something is really missing, without John there to contribute!!! :-( I also agree that those 2 songs still came out really well and authentic Beatles sounding!!! Yes!! Jeff Lynne from ELO did a Great job producing!!! Ringo cracked me up when he was talking about the time they met Elvis!! LOL!! ;-) I Love The Beatles Anthology DVD set!! Oh! I see that Tuesday the 8th is Rick Nelson's Birthday!! I'm sure you'll be celebrating by listening to his music and watching his movies & TV show!!! :-)

Yes, I heard about Bill Cosby in the news!! I'm also, Glad justice is Finally being served!!! It's about time!! I agree, there's sadly too many stories making news lately about sexual harassment, especially in show business!! And some with politicians and the work place too!! I used to like Bill Cosby too! But, not anymore!!! LOL!!

Thanks!! I'm Glad I got my Air Condition units all cleaned up and ready to go since it's going to be much warmer from now on in my area!! Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow reaching near 90 degrees here!! Sure have them running!! Yes, 87 degrees!! Went from Winter to Summer in New York!! LOL!!! But, it's a mini heat wave. Next week it's supposed to drop back down to the high 60's again, I hear!! Will see? I see you envy me! LOL! I don't like near 90 weather and especially above the 90's!!! I Like the mid 60's and in the low 70's. Yeah, I knew that Kansas is very prone to severe weather!! :-( I'm Sorry to hear that not even your umbrella is helping much to keep you dry from all these crazy down pours lately!!! :-( YES!! You're the one who should be saying YUCK!!! LOL!!!

You're Welcome for catching up!!! Thank YOU for catching up!!!! I'm So Glad your Father is doing Much Better Now!!!! :-) I agree with that, if anything good came out of the recent bad weather, it gave him a chance to stay in for a few days!!! Which is what the doctors recommended he do after his Colonoscopy anyway!! At least Something good came out of that Bad weather!!! I Hope the weather improves there SOON!!!!! Thanks!! My Internet IS working Good now!! :-) I'm Glad you got your Internet Back too!!! :-) This way we can catch up even more Soon!!! :-) Either tomorrow or this Sunday we are probably taking my cat to the vet to get her nails cut. Depends on the weather! I'm also, Glad that the month of May is finally here!! Yes!! Although it sure got off to a crazy start for You!!! :-( LOL!!!! Thanks My Friend!!! Hope You have a FAB Week and Weekend Too!!!! Hope we can catch up SOON, My Friend!!! :-)

[BeatleBob]

Hey Sadie! I Hope All is going Okay with You!! And your Father and Mother too! I'm sure you're Busy! I'm sure you watched the 2018 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame on Saturday Night! I watched it too!! I Really enjoyed most of it!! I Really Enjoyed The Cars, The Moody Blues, and other parts as well! I Really Liked The Cars Induction Speech!! And I like what the keyboardist Greg Hawkes said about The Beatles!! Cool!!! They all said very Cool things about Ben Orr! And So True about him!! Very COOL Speech!!
I liked the tributes to Tom Petty too. Was Cool seeing Denny Laine in the beginning of The Moody Blues Induction Speech! The In Memoriam segments were sad!! But, I was Glad to see they Included David!! And I was blown away from seeing that footage of Sister Rosetta Tharpe!! Kind of the Inventor of rock and roll guitar, and even Rock & Roll. She set a very high bar for later guitarists. I also, enjoyed the Chris Cornell Tribute BLACK HOLE SUN by Ann Wilson!! And her Intro for The Moody Blues! I happened to catch the show again on HBO. But, so far it hasn't been on HBO "On Demand"?? It was last year. Maybe they will include it on the "On Demand" section later on sometime. I Hope So! How did you like it?? Hope You Enjoyed it!! :-)

Saturday I had FUN doing Laundry etc. And Sunday I took my cat to get her nails clipped Finally!! Let me know how you're doing and what you thought about the 2018 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame ceremony! Hope to catch up Soon, My Friend!! Have a FAB Week!! :-)

[BeatleBob]

2018 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame THE CARS Complete Induction Speech

At "6:33" I like what the keyboardist Greg Hawkes said about The Beatles!! Cool!!! They all said very Cool things about Ben Orr! Very COOL Speech!!

[60s Fan]

Hey Beatlebob! Good to hear from you! Yes, I've been busy and not online much lately. That's usually how the first week of every month is for me! So many bills to pay, errands to run, etc. Thanks for understanding! :-)

Of course I watched the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame ceremony on Saturday! I really enjoyed it! It actually is available to watch on demand. There's sites called HBO Go and HBO Now with exclusive on demand content, just sign in with your cable or satellite provider information and you're all set to watch videos! The RNR HOF '18 is one of the on demand videos there, just search for it in the site's search bar. Hopefully that helped! Not sure if you can watch it on your TV though?? If you're interested in seeing it again on the computer in entirety (much better than those short clips on YouTube) that's how I did it. That is how I watched the new Elvis documentary called The Searcher as well. Those sites are both official, and free to register & view videos on, if you already have HBO. I think "HBO GO" is the one to use, and "HBO NOW" is more of a pay per view service for people without the channel? I'm not sure exactly how either of them work, but you can just Google any questions you may have. Enjoy! :-)

I thought the In Memoriam segment, The Cars speech (I loved it when they mentioned The Beatles & Ben!) and Ann Wilson's rendition of "Black Hole Sun" as a tribute to Chris Cornell were some of the best highlights of the evening too! Howard Stern's induction speech for Bon Jovi cracked me up. Especially when he started singing one of their songs so off key! LOL!!! That video footage of Sister Rosetta blows me away too! I never heard much of her until recently or knew much about the early days of Rock & Roll music. I was shocked to discover that there was already a pioneering African American guitarist before Chuck Berry! And it was a female guitarist, at that!! Very fitting that she was inducted this year, along with Nina Simone. I like Nina Simone's smooth covers of Beatles & George Harrison songs. In fact, this is one of the rare times when I like every single artist that was inducted this year. I'm still disappointed they didn't include The Zombies, but I'm so happy for The Moody Blues and everyone else! :-)

Glad you finally took your cat to get it's nails clipped! Now you don't have to worry about anymore spontaneous scratching disasters for a little while! LOL!!! Thanks for the best wishes! Me and my parents are all doing alright. How have you and your mother been? I've got to do some Laundry tonight myself, and celebrate Rick Nelson's birthday. I'll probably watch Rio Bravo! That's usually what I do on this day every year. I hope to catch up with you soon too and also hope you have a fab week, my friend!!! :-)

[BeatleBob]

Hey Sadie! Thanks!! Great to hear from you too!! :-) I figured you were busy and that's why you haven't been online lately. I Sure Understand!! The First week of the month is the same for me too! You're Welcome for understanding!! :-)

I figured you watched the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame ceremony on Saturday!!! I know how much you were looking forward to seeing it! I'm Glad you really enjoyed it!! :-) Thanks for letting me know about HBO Go and HBO Now!! And how it works too!! I just looked at my Cable Service providers site for information. Because I have a "Bundled TV Package" that includes HBO, Showtime, Starz, and Starz/Encore, along with a few other channels in that package, "I don't have HBO Go". :-( If I had a "Standard TV package" for a lower price with no extra Premium Channels and "Added HBO by Itself" for $14.95 a month extra, I Would get HBO Go. But, my Mother wanted the Bundled TV Package, for more extra premium channels. And when they are Bundled it's a lot cheaper than adding on a couple of premium channels!! We actually saved money on that Bundled Package. It would have cost us more to add just HBO and Showtime!! But unfortunately HBO Go Isn't included with a Bundled Package like we have!! :-(
"HBO Now is available to any new or existing Optimum Online customer that does not currently subscribe to Optimum TV. For $14.99 per month (plus applicable taxes). You'll be charged monthly for your subscription on the day that you originally signed up."
So, because I have Both the Bundled TV Package, and Internet together with Optimum, I don't have either HBO Go, or HBO Now. :-( You're Right about HBO NOW, being more of a pay per view service for people without the channel!! And to get that , I would have to pay an extra $14.99 per month!! LOL!!! So, either way with my TV and Internet service provider, I don't have HBO GO or HBO NOW! :-( Oh Well. All Cable and Satellite Providers offer different things and services. I think I remember you telling me that you added HBO by Itself, and that's why you get HBO GO. That's COOL that you can use that to stream Videos of On Demand content from HBO!!! I see that's how you watched the new Elvis documentary called The Searcher as well. COOL!! :-) Actually last night I watched the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame ceremony again on one of the HBO channels I have. So, I watched it 3 times already. It's just not on my HBO On Demand, for some strange reason. They still have the Elvis documentary called The Searcher on my HBO On Demand though. LOL! I watched both parts of that too, a good few times. :-) Thanks So Much for all the information about HBO Go and HBO Now!!! I just can't get them, though. :-(

I agree with you about the In Memoriam segment, The Cars speech, and Ann Wilson's rendition of "Black Hole Sun" as a tribute to Chris Cornell were some of the best highlights of the evening!! And I Loved it when they mentioned The Beatles & Ben too!!! And Howard Stern's induction speech for Bon Jovi cracked me up too!!! Yes, especially when he started singing one of their songs so off key! LOL!!!!! ;-) I see that video footage of Sister Rosetta blew you away too!!! This was the first time I heard of her too!! I knew a little bit of the early days of Rock & Roll music. But, I also was shocked to discover that there was already a pioneering African American guitarist before Chuck Berry!!! And it was So Cool that it was a female guitarist too!!! Yes, it was very fitting that she was inducted this year, along with Nina Simone!! I also like Nina Simone's smooth covers of The Beatles & George Harrison songs!! Such as "Revolution" and "Here Comes the Sun"! I also, like every single artist that was inducted this year!! Which is rare for me too!! I was Sad that they didn't include The Zombies, though! I see you're so Happy for The Moody Blues and everyone else, too!! :-)

Thanks!! I'm so Glad that I finally took my cat to get her nails clipped too!!! Yes, now I don't have to worry about anymore spontaneous scratching disasters for a little while!!!! LOL!!!! And I was really surprised that I actually managed to get her in her carrying case without getting Scratched this time!! :-) You're So Welcome for the Best Wishes!!! I'm So Glad that You and your Parents are doing Alright!! Thanks for asking!!! My Mother and I are hanging in there!!! But, our Bathroom Sink is Actually Clogged Up Again!!! :-( This happens every 3 to 6 months or so!!! So much rust and crap from the apartments above us from their sinks!! SUCKS!!! Somebody is supposed to check out our sink today. Still waiting!! Using the Kitchen sink to wash up in the meantime!! I Hope they can unclog our sink soon!! And I Hope a plumber won't need to be called in!! That will take even longer and a Big Mess in our Bathroom again!! Will see? :-( I see you have to do some laundry again!! FUN!!! :-( And Celebrate Rick Nelson's Birthday!! :-) Happy Birthday Rick!!! :-) I see you usually watch Rio Bravo on his Birthday every year!! Enjoy!!! :-) A lot of famous people in that movie!! John Wayne, Dean Martin, Angie Dickenson, Walter Brennan and more, Including Ricky Nelson!! :-) Enjoy, My Friend!!!

I Hope to catch up with You SOON too!!! And Thanks!!! Hope You have a FAB Week, My Friend!! :-)

[BeatleBob]

Happy Birthday Rick - Rio Bravo :-)

:-)

[60s Fan]

Hey Beatlebob. WOW! Thanks for posting that beautiful picture of Ricky from "Rio Bravo". It blew me away. LOL! ;-)

Sorry for the delayed response! Yes, whenever I'm not online for a little while it's because I've been busy. Thanks for understanding! I know the same goes for you too. That's too bad you can't see The Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame on demand, but at least HBO has been re-airing it and you've caught some of the repeats! That's great how your cable package includes a bundle of premium channels! I can only subscribe to them separately with my particular service. Those premium networks are HBO, Showtime, Starz, Cinemax, and EPIX. I can only afford one at the moment, and I went with HBO because it's my favorite. I enjoy certain things from all of those channels though!! There's just so much stuff to watch and not enough time!

I agree the 2018 Hall Of Fame was a great group of inductees! I even got emotional several times throughout the show, especially when they showed Benjamin Orr's son in the audience, and he was crying a bit when they mentioned Ben! I thought it was sweet how the whole ceremony started with a tribute to Tom Petty. And I'm so pleased that they chose to include David Cassidy in the Memorial segment, since he usually doesn't get much recognition for being a serious good musician and not just a pop culture "teen idol". I would love for him to get in the Hall Of Fame someday, but that might not ever happen and it would be posthumously anyway! :-(

I'm so glad The Cars are finally in now though! It's about time!! That's great how your cat was more obedient and cooperative getting into her cage this time. Maybe she's finally learning how to be trained? LOL! Sure hope so! I had to give up a cat once because he wasn't using his litter box and gave me flea & tick bites! He was also sick and always sneezing! But he came from a previous household that obviously didn't take good enough care of him so that explained his erratic behavior. He was such a cute fully white cat and I was very sad to give him away but I had to. Our old apartment didn't want cats inside the place anyway. They didn't mind if I fed stray cats outside though, as long as I cleaned up any mess. I have since moved from there, and this new place strictly does NOT allow any pets or even any feeding of neighborhood strays. Sometimes I miss taking care of cats, but this change is for the better! :-)

That sucks your bathroom sink gets clogged up every few months! That happens every once in a while with my damn shower drain too! I always try to fix it myself with a plunger because I hate to call maintenance! They always take forever to fix the problem(s) and even try to charge you for repairs sometimes! You know what I mean! LOL!!! 

I hope you get that problem fixed soon! Best wishes with that! And for your mother, who is almost 90! I'm always hoping the best for you, my friend! I always appreciate your best wishes for me too! :-)

Glad you enjoyed those funny Bill Cosby things I shared! LMAO!

Have you noticed this yet??

"Service Announcement Effective May 18th 2018. Free-Shoutbox.net will discontinue its chat service. We encourage you to find a replacement soon. Thank you for your support."

First the radio stopped working on this site and now the shoutbox is soon to be inactive too? That sucks! Now I'm starting to fear this site's future again! I just hope it lasts until June, at least! Who knows?? We can't ask Ann about it either since she won't speak to us anymore. Let's just hope it lasts for as long as possible! Same with The Beatles site. It's patriotic layout will soon be a perfect theme for July. If it's still around by then. LOL! 

Well I'm gonna go for now. I've got Laundry to do yet again! Happy Mother's Day!!! Have a fab week! :-)

[BeatleBob]

Hey Sadie! Great to hear from you again!! :-) You're So Welcome for posting that picture of Ricky from "Rio Bravo"!! :-) I'm Glad it blew you away! LOL!! ;-)

Yes, I know whenever you're not online for a little while it's because you've been busy!! And you know the same goes for me!! We Both Understand!! Thank You for understanding too!! I Miss You when you're not here, though!! Thanks!! But, my cable package Finally added The Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame to the HBO's on demand section!! So, I watched it yet again. ;-) And watched the Elvis special again too. :-) Yeah, our cable package does include a pretty nice bundle of premium networks. So, we have a lot of channels to choose from. But, they take a long time before they Add different movies etc to each of the premium networks. That's the only bad thing about it!! They keep showing the same stuff over and over again till about the second week of the following month. Then they add a few different ones. :-( Sorry to hear that you can only subscribe to them separately with your particular service!! No Bundles! I see those premium networks are HBO, Showtime, Starz, Cinemax, and EPIX. They're Good Ones!! But, I know you can only afford one at the moment, so you went with HBO because it's you're Favorite. HBO is my Favorite one too!! If you had to pay for all of those a-la-carte packages, it would cost A Lot of Money!! :-( I also, only enjoy certain things from all of those channels too!! But, they do offer a lot of things!! Same for me, that there's just so much stuff to watch but not enough time!!! LOL!!

Yes, he 2018 Hall Of Fame had a great group of inductees this time!! I can imagine you got emotional several times throughout the show, especially when they showed Benjamin Orr's son in the audience!!! I know he was crying a bit when they mentioned Ben!!! Made me get emotional too!! I also, thought it was Great how the whole ceremony started with a tribute to Tom Petty!! I'm also, very pleased that they chose to include David Cassidy in the Memorial segment!! I know he usually doesn't get much recognition for being a serious good musician, and not just a pop culture "teen idol"!! I know what you mean!! :-( It's a shame!! I would also love for him to get in the Hall Of Fame someday!! But, unfortunately that may never happen because they usually think of him as just a pop culture "teen idol"! And if he did get in the Hall Of Fame someday, it would be posthumously anyway!! :-( SAD!! :-(

Yes, it was about time that The Cars finally got in now!!! I was so Glad about that too!!! :-) About my cat being more obedient and cooperative getting into her cage This Time was due to me, though!!! LOL!!! I had her carrying case all set up to go hiding in the other room. She was lying on the couch and I got up and brought the case quietly near the room and just managed to grab her quick and shoved he into her case and closed it up right away!! I was surprised that I still didn't get scratched!!! So, no she's not finally learning how to be trained! LOL!!! She is Still her same old self!!! I have to be tricky with her when I do this, and I got lucky this time!! LOL!! It's just the way she is! I'm Sorry to hear you had to give up a cat once because he wasn't using his litter box and gave you flea & tick bites!!! And he was also sick and always sneezing!! :-( I see that he came from a previous household that obviously didn't take good enough care of him so that explained his erratic behavior!! :-( I know what that's like!!! You know the story behind my cat's past before we got her!! That's why to this day she still has a very erratic behavior!! :-( Although, she is much better than she was when we first got her!! I see he was such a cute fully white cat, and I can imagine you were very sad to give him away!! But you had to!! :-( Your old apartment didn't want cats inside the place!! I see they didn't mind if you fed stray cats outside though, as long as you cleaned up any mess. I remember you telling me that you took care of some stray cats when you were living there!! Even though it was outside of your apartment. That was very sweet of you!! I see that the New place that you're living at now, strictly does NOT allow any pets or even any feeding of neighborhood strays!!! That's Sad!!! :-( I'm sure that sometimes you miss taking care of cats!! But, this change is for the better now. :-) This way you won't be able to go through what you went through that last time, when you had to give up that cute fully white cat!! :-(

Yeah, it Really Sucks that our bathroom sink gets clogged up every few months or so!!!! It took two days but, they Finally fixed the mess!!! They used one machine and it didn't work. They brought in a bigger machine and finally were able to clear the pipes out!!! Then I had to clean up a big mess afterwards!!! But, Glad to be able to use it again!! :-) I see that happens every once in a while with your damn shower drain too!!! :-( No wonder why you always try to fix it yourself with a plunger!! I'm sure you hate to have to call maintenance being they always take forever to fix the problem(s)!!! And they even try to charge you for repairs sometimes!!!! YES, I know what you mean!!! LOL!!! I Wish I had the big equipment that these plumbers had to snake out the pipe behind the wall for our sink!!! I would do it myself if I could, for the Same Reasons!! LOL!!!!

Thanks for Hoping that problem gets fixed soon!! Finally did!! And Thank You for the Best Wishes for my Mother too, who is getting near 90!! I know you're always hoping the best for me, my friend!!! I Really Appreciate That!!!! Thanks for saying you always appreciate my best wishes for you too!!!! I'm Always Hoping for the BEST for You!!! :-)

Thanks again for sharing those funny Bill Cosby things!!! I Sure DID Enjoy Them!!! LMAO!!!!! :-)

Yes, as soon as I got to This front page here today I seen the Shoutbox Notice!!! :-( SUCKS!!! It was Nice of you for letting the other 2 people know on the ShoutBox!!

YES!!!! First the radio stopped working on this site and now the shoutbox is soon to be inactive too? DAMN!!!! :-( SUCKS!!!!! They are Slowly stripping away things from Both sites!!! The Shout box stopped on the Beatles site long ago!! Now here soon!!! :-( I'm also, starting to fear this site's future again!!! :-( I Hope it lasts until June Too!!! Hopefully Longer!!!! But, Who Knows??? :-( Yeah, it Sucks that we can't even ask Ann about it either since she won't speak to us anymore!! :-( YES!!! All We Can Do Is HOPE it lasts for as LONG As Possible!!!!! And the same with The Beatles Site too!!! Let's HOPE!!!!

Sorry to hear you have Laundry to do yet again!!! :-( I did mine yesterday! Happy Mother's Day!!!!! I see you posted a few pictures. Thanks!!! :-) Thanks for catching up, My Friend!!!! I Hope to hear from you SOON!!!! Thanks!!! I Hope You have a FAB Week Too!!! :-)

[BeatleBob]

Hey Sadie! Glad I caught your message today on the Shoutbox, before it closes on This Friday! So Sad that the Shoutbox will be gone!! :-( I'll miss your Colorful little graphics you post on it, along with your messages!! :-( Even though the Shoutbox is closing Here, the Both Sites May Still Be Around for a Good While Yet? On our Beatles Site the Shoutbox and the Photos slide show closed down a good while ago. But, the site is Still working! I even noticed on the front page there that a New Member was accepted to the Site on April 16th. "Someone" had to accept That member. Very Odd!? I know I'm being Hopeful, but just maybe Ann told somebody to look after the sites from time to time? And maybe that person was told IF any extra services where Changing, to just ignore them, to not add any extra costs to the sites? Who knows how long the Both Sites are Paid Up Till, to keep them running?? I'm sure nobody is paying by the month to keep the sites running!! I'm just HOPING the both sites were paid up to last a good while yet, before they are shut down for good!!!! I Know it's just wishful thinking on my part!!! LOL!! But Who Knows?? Since we can't get in touch with Ann about it!! :-( We still can add Photos to both sites, and still can use the Forums and the Status boxes. The Sites are still functioning. I just Hope the both sites were paid up to last a good while yet, at the time that Ann left. I HOPE SO!!!!

Every time I come to the sites I'm always worried that they won't even be there!! :-( Or, show a notice that they're shutting down! :-( But, Thank Goodness they're Still Here and working!! :-) I just Hope my wishful thinking is Right!!! LOL!! All we can do is Hope for the Best!! Let's Hope the both sites will still be around for a good while yet!!

I Hope everything is going Alright with you!!! Hope to catch up SOON, My Friend!! :-)

[60s Fan]

Hey Beatlebob! Sorry it took a little while to answer you here! The site was being weird and not letting me sign in! That's why I could only answer on the front page shoutbox which will sadly be gone soon on Friday! :-(

I'm glad The 2018 Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame ceremony is now showing up on your HBO On Demand! Enjoy!!! 

Yes, I had all of those Premium TV channels at one point (back in 2010-2011 when my cable bill was $200 a month! Yikes!) and I remember how they would basically play the same batch of movies all month long, just at different time slots, like what a real movie theater would do. That's part of why I cancelled them all! And because it was obviously getting too expensive! HBO was and still is my favorite Premium channel though! I see it's also your favorite one too. That's a clever way to get your cat in a cage. Just trick her into it! LOL!!! Hopefully you'll be able to get away with that over and over again! Cats are smarter than most people think! They can eventually get wise to what you're really trying to do! ;-) 

I'm also glad to hear you got that plumbing problem taken care of! Now that the warm weather is finally here I take more showers than usual, so the shower drain is more likely to get clogged again! I hate it when that happens! There's been some bigger household issues like the electricity in the kitchen completely going out, and I've had no choice but to call maintenance! I'm relieved they haven't charged me for any repairs yet. Besides this new apartment complex being much better & updated than the old home, the maintenance people here are more professional at fixing things as well! 

Thanks for sharing that funny Donald Trump stuff! It cracked me up! He really does bare a striking resemblance to that ape! Maybe he's an illegitimate descendant? LMAO!!!

I also noticed a new member recently joined the Beatles site! I wondered if Ann was the one that accepted their membership?? Or maybe there is someone else who has been temporarily looking after the site after she stopped participating in it, like you said. Either way I still think it's sad how Ann pretty much deserted both sites and us! I don't think they were free sites, but I'm not too sure anymore since the Ning rules change from time to time. I also think that both of the sites were prepaid up until a certain point but I don't know exactly when that is. Things would be much easier if we at least knew some sort of time frame regarding this site and the Beatles site's future existence! That would give me more time to set up a new social networking site or whatever! I just hope that Ann or whoever else possibly paid for the sites, paid up enough for them to last at least one more full month! I know that besides you and I there will be a few other people upset to see it go (Mike Pell, Anthony Cappucci, the occasional Retro Sugar visitors that leave comments in the shoutbox, etc.) I think I remember hearing that Alyssabeth (BeatleLuvr13) was helping to pay for the Beatles Abbey Road site for a little while? I'm not sure if she still does though (doubtful since she's now become an inactive member too) but I can't ask her either because we also haven't spoken in years! All we can do is just enjoy both the sites while we still can! I often fear that someday I'll come here and it will just be a blank white page too, like what happened with some of our old sites! You know my e-mail address though, if anything scary like that ever sadly does happen!!! ([e-mail])

Well I've got to go now, but before I do, 

RIP Actress Margot Kidder

(1948 - 2018)

Aww I Loved the original Superman movies!!! Those are the best! She was a great Lois Lane! I was sad when Christopher Reeve died too. Hopefully they are having a friendly reunion now! 

Beatlebob, hope to hear back from you soon! Has the weather in New York warmed up yet? It's already full blown summer here with temperatures even reaching 90 degrees! I'm so glad that long boring winter is finally over with! Have a great weekend, my friend! :-)
