Where are PJ and Gary ? 😦 ❓

I know, they are MIA! I hope everything is okay with them.

PJ said she was having computer problems. As for me, the board has been dead for months, so I don't respond.

Glad you're still among the living!😏

It's nice to be missed! Yes, computer problems and with the Covid thing, money problems. It was one thing after another. Then my elderly mother passed away a few months ago. I never realized how much time it takes to deal with the aftermath of death, i.e., funeral arrangements, cleaning out her house to sell it, furniture and clothes to sell or dispose of, dealing with lawyers, etc., etc.

I missed being here but I either didn't have the time or the heart to post. Feeling kinda down...But I still watch my Lucy DVDs and miss this place!

Glad your back!

So Sorry for your loss and all that goes with it. It's something we all face or will face, and there's no easy answer. One day at a time is all any of us can do.

PJ, I'm so very, very sorry about the loss of your Mom. I lost my stepmother in January in hospice care. My 90 year-old father was beside himself, but is doing better. On top of this, my brother and his wife announced two weeks later that they are divorcing after 18 years of marriage. It's been rough for a lot of people.

PJ I hope you have your computer fixed (or better yet a new one).

P.S: you never guessed which episode I was referring to in the "improved titles" thread. The "Walter" I was referring to is Walter Riley in "Ricky Needs an Agent." Or, as I offered as a better title, "Hey Walter, Heeeere She Comes!"

reply

Gary, so sorry for your loss and your family problems. Hope you Dad is doing better.

Thanks everyone for your sympathy. I'm still dealing with it. I feel sad and then I feel guilty for being angry at my mom for dying. Sure she was old. But she ignored all her doctor's medical advice for years and wouldn't quit those bleeping cigarettes!! @#@#@# She'd probably still be with us if she had stayed on her oxygen and off the smokes! But, what can you do? People do what they WANT.

Sorry to hear about your stepmom Gary. Hope your father is okay. And sad to hear your brother is getting a divorce. It's always something, isn't it?

Oh yes, Walter Riley! I just watched that episode recently. It's one of the funniest Hollywood eps. Coincidentally when I was a little kid, Walter was my favorite guy name.

reply

WALTER was your favorite guy name? When I was a kid, a friend named his DOG Walter. And it fit!!

To me, favorite guy names were Steve, Chad, Craig and Michael...because they were...uh...sexy. Sorry, Walter doesn't quite do it for me.

But I'll say this: Walter is a hell of a lot better than Harold, Irving, Milton or Pierpont.

Do you recall which ILL episode Pierpont hails from?

reply

Well I WAS about three when I liked the name! I wasn't thinking in terms of "sexy' yet! lol

My mom had a dog named Walter, named after the two Walter episodes on Bonanza (eps from about season four). Walter was "a caution" and a very smart dog. Very funny episodes.

I think Pierpont was from the episode when Lucy was trying to think of baby names. John or Mary. Madeline or Pierpont.

Ta-da!!!!
