Boomer's Picture
 
Spring is in the air here in Ohio and it seems like it might be a good time to put a picture here so you can see who Boomer really is.

In the picture Boomer is wearing flannel while dreaming in flamingo. Just like she has been doing all winter.

At this point, I am still having some technical difficulties, but I should be able to get it here soon.

I don't think I can make it into one of those little side picture things, whatever they are called. We will see about that later. But meanwhile, I would like for you to meet Boomer, at least. As soon as I figure out how to make it happen. I hope this does not turn into one of those old "Film at 11" things. I am not good with technology.

Boomer,

Are you sitting on the exercise ball??? We can't see it!!!

Thanks for sharing your image with us...when you're feeling a little braver, perhaps we'll see the twinkle in your eye.

Who's reading the "Antenna Book"...gee, it musta been a long cold winter in Ohio.

Regards,

V07

"The Hidden Persuaders" !!!!!

Is that the original edition on parchment or a reprint? And I can't see your copy of "Atlas Shrugged".

I simple adore the flamingos although I'm partial to parrots (ooops, sorry Handie - I stole your idea :redface:)

Great picture Boomer, it is about time...now we just need for you to turn around so we can meet proper like. I think you must be more shy than Kathi.

Bright, the Parrot Mobile looks really darling, sigh, makes me yearn for another ride.

When I was headed back home today, I called Mr. Boomer and said, "Throw a couple Warsteiner in the freezer, darlin'. I'm on my way."

Then, having lost all inhibition, I decided to put my picture on here. (Only one of the beers was mine. I'm a cheap date.)

Now, I will try to answer the questions you have asked re. the picture.

Muncle,
Actually it is an original "Hidden Persuaders." I am trying to learn how to put subliminal messages into my posts. And "Atlas Shrugged" is around here somewhere. (I think we are speaking Boomerese, now.)

V '07,
Yes, I sure am sitting on the exercise ball. It is blocked by the golf bag.

And to answer you and Sid about the "Antenna Book" --

You see, Mr. Boomer has his hobbies. Right now he is working on a ham license. But we will not, I repeat not, be putting up antennas, not here, not there, not anywhere -- not anywhere that anybody can see anyway.

So the "Antenna Book" belongs with "The Naked Pilot." I keep trying to interest Mr. Boomer in less expensive hobbies, like perhaps carving polar bears out of soap.

I feel like a charlatan. The only Ayn Rand that I've read in its entirety is Anthem. It's about the length of a small chapter in Atlas or even Fountainhead. I've read excerpts from both, but never the whole books. From what I've read by and of Ayn Rand though, she must have been a remarkable woman. Wouldn't you have loved to had a long dinner conversation with her? Maybe add an Adlai Stevenson or John Kenneth Galbraith for balance and a Bill Buckley for spice.

Boomer,
Great picture! It really shows your personality. A picture you really have to READ!!! :read:
Is that a Paula Deen cookbook I see?? I Love her on the Food Network. She's my fav...


And Brightspot,
Love your parrot cart!! I'm a parrot fan too.
I painted trees with parrots in them in my powder room.
My friends call it my Jimmy Buffett Water Closet.

Yes, it is, in fact, Paula Deen.

Mint, I have to confess that I fear Paula Deen. You see, I know deep in my heart that she is the only woman in the world who Mr. Boomer would leave me for. Someday I will write about that.

(Not about Mr. Boomer leaving me for her...I hope. But about how I know.)
