I'm really looking forward to this SuperBowl because of the new blood in the game. NOTHING but sick and tired of the same thing year after year after year.

Should be a great time and I hope it's not a blowout!

Which President of The United States didn't Love Cheese or Lobster but Loved NOTHING but Jelly Beans? Non-Political, just a point of interest!

The reward for answering is of course NOTHING! No Google Cheating!

His jelly bean habit started long before he was elected President. He was trying to give up smoking a pipe.

The Jelly Belly company sent 3 and 1/2 tons of red, white, and blue jelly beans for his Inauguration parties. (Blueberry, Very Cherry, and Coconut) They continued to send jelly beans for all 8 years.

The company got permission to make an official Jelly Belly jar with the Presidential Seal. He gave these as gifts.

His favorite flavor was licorice. (Mine, too.)

That’s all I know. Nothing else to add. No cheese flavored jelly beans that I know of.

Spoiler 01-29-2020 04:54 PM

I’d bet cheese flavored jelly beans would be good... might just try to get me some...

Nothing really to lose....

Spoiler 01-29-2020 05:03 PM

I have me a certificate hanging on a wall with my name on it. It is from 1974 with President Richard M. Nixon’s signature on it... He was not the jelly bean president. Can anyone guess what the certificate was for? It would be difficult to google it, but maybe....

As far as the jelly bean guy, I admit that I had to google it to find out who he was... Nothing but proud to be a googler here in the sunny and sophisticated Village of Monarch Grove

You might be on to something, Spoiler. Just think of how you could extend the line: Gouda. Cheddar. Swiss. Havarti. Mozzarella. Asiago. Blue. Brie. On and on it could go. And, of course, the most memorable of all — nothing like it — Limburger! :)

I could be nothing but wrong, Spoiler. I don’t know how old you are so you might be too young for my guess to be correct, but here goes — (drumroll please) — Your Honorable Discharge. :)

Nope, nothing like that... I missed Vietnam being in the 9th grade and all... never was in the service. Should have been, but it wasn't in the cards for me...

The certificate is from when I made Eagle Scout just as I turned 14 years old. A long time ago now....

I've been NOTHING but lumped up for close to a week. I can't believe my appetite is shot in the keister. It's going to be Historical when I'm hungry again.

Dr. put me on something that's supposed to make you NOTHING but a Grocery Destroyer. Opposite effect on me.

Yous guys are too kind to me. I did fake sneezes in the old days just to get somebody to say something nice. :1rotfl:

I haven't had a Mixer in about a month there Sgt Spoiler! That is my Modus Operandi. I find something I like and go and get it until I get sick of it. :ohdear: Weird I know but the truth NOTHING but hurts sometimes.

What a NOTHING but great day today. It felt so good to not feel the flu symptoms. As the night is coming upon us here comes that terrible feeling. I'm on some antibiotics that is humongous. Day 3 or 4 of 10. I have NOTHING but faith in my Doctor.

Not too shabby.

Got some new glasses for $224 at Peepers in Colony Plaza on Thursday. Dr. was very friendly and we talked movies a lot. And the other employees were professional and friendly there. Quite a good deal at $224. And no I did not try to get that number somehow nor did the Peepers employee as I picked out the frames with no help from her and this is the number they got.

Older brother was visiting for a week so I have been away from NOTHING for a while. Younger brother passed in early December of 2014. We talked a lot about him and I also ventured stuff about my 224 613 Project which both brothers had helped with each having gone to Earl Wooster High School for a while in Reno, Nevada. But older brother got into trouble and they sent him to high school in tiny Austin, Nevada from around 1973-1975. I graduated from Wooster in May of 1976. Then older brother went eventually to the University of Nevada, Reno and became an ace computer programmer. While I studied Philosophy and History with a Minor in Religious Studies. That required a lot of reading of The Bible which is one of my favorite books.

FunTrivia Knockout This Week

45th FunTrivia Knockout win. These are four day tournaments from Tuesday to Friday. Each tournament is 16 people to begin with facing off in pairs. The winner goes on for the next day. Winners crowned on Saturday.

This week my Friday opponent was a fellow Villager Cinefan. Kind of NOTHING but fitting even if I actually got the question among the 20 on Friday about movies wrong.

Check FunTrivia out. I have been on there since May of 2013. They have quizzes about just about everything like your favorite football, basketball, baseball, hockey teams. It is world oriented so they also have quizzes about cricket, rugby, soccer, and many other sports. Books, movies, insects, animals, geography, religion, chemistry, physics, music, and many other subjects are covered.

Spoiler, if you want to wake up those taste buds come on over. I just made a pot of chili for tomorrow and may have used a bit too much cayenne.. lol It's still NOTHING but tasty though..

Got seven books for my parents at the Belvedere Library (Sumter County) here in the Villages, FL yesterday on January 31, 2020. The library was full of students from the high school across the street at that time. These were the Buffalo.

Got all these books for NOTHING. Quite a good deal. The computer system was down at the library. I have had that happen myself when checking out people who were at the East Lake Community Library or the Palm Harbor Library. Both of these public libraries are in Palm Harbor, FL. I volunteered at these for 10-14 hours a week in 2000-2003.

And had worked at Englewood Public Library in CO and in the History and Travel Department at the Central Library in downtown Minneapolis.


Was really pushing my 224 613 Project too hard while I was volunteering at these two libraries. Sending e-mails all over the world and using Findlaw from 2002- up through until after we moved to the Villages in June of 2005.

Libraries are quite a savior for people.

I think one of my fellow University of Denver Graduate School of Librarianship and Information Management graduates who was also my roommate for nine months in Denver, CO now works in a public library just outside of Seattle, WA.

Inspector Clouseau here! Let me run a little NOTHING up the Flagpole and see what we can glean from my observation!

Early Saturday afternoon for about the last month on various threads is it my imagination or do the usual suspects come out and shake things up and then get their posts removed and then behave for the most part till the next weekend? It's almost like a child who knows the adult is out of the room and they can push the envelope. It's getting old!

I kind of NOTHING but enjoy some of these usual suspects POVs. It is nothing but something different.

Have been visiting with a lady who has a son who is a psychiatrist and told a quite attractive blonde woman that my dog keeps me sane but well sort of. She had a big laugh with that statement. Her dog had been carrying a stick almost the size of my dog a few days ago.

I predict warm weather with no weather scares are both coming sooner than later.
