    Hi Incredis, it's good to hear from you, my friend. Yes, we had a time of it that day. The tornados that touched down did so not far from the stadium. One of my dogs got to barking at the storm until a bolt of lightning sent him under the couch. I moved over and shared the space with him.

    I wonder if you've ever gone to see the Rangers at Surprise? I do so hope that the third times a charm come playoffs. Mavs fell hard this time so we need a good Cowboy season this fall. One thing is certain, we may shoot ourselves in the foot but our guns are usually blazing. Can't wait for football season and to be reunited with my online friends.

    Richard, I'm sorry you're having difficulty finding us. Juno found it, perhaps he can explain it better than I. I'm off to Africa for a couple of weeks.

    Henry, I had nothing to do with the song other than to enjoy it. Albeit, it does appear to be a "Bobby" song. :)

    Always nice to see when a post doesnt show up. Very clever with connecting the DOTs on the COMputer. Im trying to do the same but didnt find it. Maybe now that I am on a computer I can try to go search for it as well. Its a lil tough speaking in code just to get a message across but should be worth it.
    I do see the John Wayne, Cowboy...now I see why the nick name goes with you. I seen it myself from Mr. Whatever the way you took him under your wing. I truely said to myself "Wow, now thats a hero. I give him 110% respect and admiration for that!"

    Bobby.....I looked up the song "honey" and listened to it. I noticed it was written by someone named Bobby and recorded by another Bobby. Any connection?

    Richard, follow the capitalized letters to the website and then when you are inside "General Discussions," use the search bar there to locate Gentlemen's Ranker Club. You will immediately see Incredis' red cardinal. If you still have trouble, let me know.

    I like getting gems. They're a gift that lets you choose. You can discard it and you've neither gained anything nor lost anything. You may also choose to pick it up, polish it and make it your own. Here's an example of a "Gem."

    Today we celebrate the day of love. For many of us it means a trip to the store for candy, flowers and a card. If we're feeling romantic, we might even spring for dinner. With all this love going around, it may seem surprising that one of the most frequently asked questions people pose to me is, "Why am I not happy?" I usually ask them what they are doing to pursue happiness. Most tell me they took their family on a boating, camping or some other trip. "That sounds nice," I reply, "but those things are adventures that make you happy." I find that most haven't a clue how to pursue happiness.

    When you wanted someone to love, you began dating and you didn't give up until you found someone with whom you wanted to share your time with. Soon that love grew and you were married and started a family. You wouldn't have found love if you hadn't pursued it. Happiness is found the same way. You see, love and happiness are things that you only find once you share them with others. I'll share with you one of the things I've done for many decades now that has brought me great happiness. On St. Valentine's day, I did the same things as many of you. I bought the candy, roses and the obligatory card that worded love much more eloquently than I ever wanted to. (I'm not into "mushy.") However, I also stopped by the bakery and picked up a couple dozen valentines decorated cookies. I gave Mrs. Bobby her things and on our way to dinner, stopped by the local Salvation Army center for the homeless. I give the cookies to the staff there with a note that simply reads, "These cookies are given to the staff here. Each day you feed the hungry, make beds for the weary and give hope to the hopeless. We are thankful for you and this Valentine's Day would like to acknowledge your contributions to others." That's it. I didn't stand around but left with a friendly wave and then took us out to dine.I'll never forget the first time I took Mrs. Bobby along (and later our children) during a "cookie" trip. That evening over dinner she kept looking at me and when I finally ask, "what?" She said, "I've never met a real hero before." My pursuit of happiness was successful. To know that she felt that way about me made me very....happy! Look around you and see where you can share happiness. The happiness is always returned, so you simply keep spreading it, just as you do love.

    Take this gem, put it in your pocket and keep it until you decide to use it or discard it. Either way, it's yours! Happy Valentine's Day!

    It worked! Gentlemen, if you follow us to the web site as capitalized below, you'll find that Incredis has already set up a page there entitled, "Gentlemen's Ranker Club." I love it! Thank you Incredis, you did good. Someone has already left a cool message there as they aren't sure what this new discussion is. Please join us there and register so that we can keep together should this page disappear. I would request that you check back here to help us not lose any former members that may be searching for us. I'm excited about the new forum and the prospect of having new voices join us. Let's face it guys, we love to talk about football and it's just more fun if there are others reading and sharing. We all joined this gentlemen's club to be social and we didn't know that yahoo was going to cut it off from their other pages.

    I've decided to add a couple of comments each week next season during our picks. I'm calling one of them, "Off My Rocker," and the other, "Gems." The new forum has a special place for chatterboxes like me who wish to speak about other topics as well as football. This is an appropriate place to tell short stories, jokes and nonsensicle items. It's time to weed the flower beds and plant the berries so I'll talk to you guys later.

    Incredis, thank you forr trying to get the message across. Incredis has set up another page for us to meet at should this one suddenly disappear. Yahoo has filters which seem to make giving you the site page impossible. I'm going to try it like this...wish me luck!

    I had a friend at NFL who couldn't connect the DOTs on his COMputer. His FANTASY was to open a FORUM about GENERAL DISCUSSION.

    Does anyone really want to put their info (for Facebook) on this Ranker board??? That's the question??? One person would have to put their info on this board and everyone else can connect through them...Do you all really think that Yahoo is going to do away with this Ranker???

    Hello Bobby. I think I was able to setup an alternate meeting place as per the email you sent me. I will try to post partial link to navigate there on the following message and I hope Yahoo will allow it so that we do not all lose contact with each other. I believe we would all consider this page as our preferred meeting place but recent instabilities have caused us to seek backup plans. More to follow.

    Now that the season is over, I'd like to share one of my favorite songs with you in loving memory of Mrs. Bobby....

    HONEY

    See the tree how big it's grown
    But friend it hasn't been too long
    It wasn't big
    I laughed at her and she got mad
    The first day that she planted it
    Was just a twig
    Then the first snow came and she
    Went out to brush the snow away
    So it wouldn't die
    Came running in all excited
    Slipped and almost hurt herself
    I laughed till I cried
    She was always young at heart
    Kinda dumb and kinda smart
    And I loved her so
    And I surprised her with a puppy
    Kept me up all Christmas Eve
    Two years ago
    And it would sure embarrass her
    When I came in from workin' late
    Cause I would know
    That she'd been sittin' there and cryin'
    Over some sad and silly late, late show
    And Honey I love you
    And I'm being good
    And I'd love to be with you
    If only I could
    She wrecked the car and she was sad
    And so afraid that I'd be mad
    But what the heck
    Though I pretended hard to be
    Guess you could say she saw through me
    And hugged my neck
    I came home unexpectedly
    And caught her cryin' needlessly
    In the middle of the day
    And it was in the early Spring
    When flowers bloom and robins sing
    She went away
    One day when I wasn't home
    And she was there and all alone
    The angels came
    Now all I have are memories of Honey
    And I wake up nights and
    Call her name
    Now my life's an empty stage
    where Honey lived and Honey played
    And love grew up
    A small cloud passes overhead
    And cries down in the flowerbed
    That Honey loved
    And Honey I miss you
    And I'm being good
    And I love to be with you
    If only I could
