Bio
born in Illinois. 5 year Navy veteran. Married for 25 years (not counting the first five when we just cohabited. 4 kids, 6 grandkids, 3 brothers 2 living, 2 sisters 1 living, a mother living, a father not living. 1 dog a labradoodle, and a current cat population of 9 (I'm working on that number) I've done a lot of jobs in my life, from shill at a carnival burlesque show to making medium caliber ammunition. I built inkjet printers, embedded computer boards, restored and repaired both cars, motorcycles and electronics. I read, write, and do arithmetic (albeit poorly) My wife claims that I have more useless knowledge than anyone on earth and resultingly no one will play trivial pursuit with me anymore. I do play pinohcle but due to my inability to cheat I don't win very often. Recently disabled I turned to Open Salon to re-engage my writing bug. Update, cat population now at 3. homes found for kittens. Update two add one cocker spaniel to the list and maybe just shoot me.

Memories
I went to Robbinsdale High School, here in land locked Minnesota yet this was our class of 1964 official song. I don't think any of us had ever surfed but we were all surfin' birds.
A good bird for Fusun to know.
rated with love
Getting up to dance now...pa-pa-u-mau-mau!!!!!!!
I clicked on the song link forgetting my cat was in my lap and he jumped a foot which made me jump a foot...now off to read Fusun's post :)
So fun. The day really is going to the birds! I saw a beautiful falcon in my front yard today and promptly dubbed it "FüsunA's Christmas bird."
funny...i remember watching teens dancing to that song on American Bandstand and dreaming of one day being on that show...though I thought the song was a little weird.
