    Hey gang, For reasons that I can’t begin to describe, I have been out of commission for a looooooong time. And I don’t (and won’t) have time to go back in history ( way back there, a long time ago, hope I remember the words…) to catch up on everything and everybody (haven’t even developed my pics from Bay Days yet!!). Anybody care to give me a quick synopsis of what I’ve missed??? And hopefully, somebody OTHER than Mr. DPD. You KNOW you can’t trust what HE says!

    We are out here MVF!!!

    I haven’t been on much myself. Suffering this neck and shoulder pain. And now, my gout is acting up. Darn arthritis. I can’t wait for winter to be over. Someone turn the heat up!!!! 😆

    But I have to thank Si for those new daily doses. The downloads were helpful in pain relief. I know you are very busy, but thanks for taking the time to put those up there. The 20 minutes of relaxing and not having to think about my pains helped alot. Bruce always works his magic on that piano, something about it just makes me feel better….and all just in time for my birthday coming up March 8th. …mmm, do we get to make song requests for our birthdays?????

    Ok…enough about me. Anyone else out there???????????????

    MVF,

    Long time,no post! Hope things are moving in a positive direction for you.
    What’s going on in the Bruuuce.com world?

    1. A very beautiful and heartfelt song inspired by the events in Haiti by Rachel Griffin. It’s on the home page.

    2.You were “drafted” to help in the Guys vs. Girls battle that ensued in the “Hornsby Musical Article” thread. See what happens when you’re absent for so long?

    3. One of the newest members on the Board shared an incredible poem he wrote about Bruce.

    4. David is sharing his adventures in his continuing quest to find the true meaning of “Candy Mountain Run.”

    5. Si has posted some new doses for us to enjoy-hooray!

    Bless you, my children. Let me get out my calculator….mmmmm…….yes……uuuuuhhhh……. Yep still comes up to two friends. I guess they’ll just have to work harder.

    Went on a second interview today. They asked what my salary requirements were. I said, yes, I would like to have one. (tee-hee) I took the highest one stated in the job listing, and my salary at my old job, and met in the middle. Still waiting for call back.

    Yes, David, this post DOES have something to do with Bruce. During my two interviews, I heard THREE Bruce songs!!! By the original artist!!!! This will be a GREAT place to work.

    What’s this Guys vs Girls thing? Which side am I on??

    The newbie who wrote the poem….Welcome, and please send me a personal message. I may have some interesting info for you.

    So….are we all on for da’ Biltmo’ this summer?? :D :D

    Are we HAVING a Biltmo’ Sho’ this summer??? :? :? :?

    Please?? 😥 😥 😥

    Ouch! 😆 😆 😆

    MVF,

    Glad you’re back in the fray with us! I think SMP’s arms were getting tired trying to hold back the surge. Come to think of it, where has SMP been hiding these days? Probably out scouring the country for prairie dogs. 🙄

    As for the Biltmo’, I’m keeping fingers crossed on that one. I think we would have heard something by now. No?

    We’re thinking of going back to Asheville the last weekend in July* for the Bele Chere Festival. It was going on the same weekend we went to see Bruce at Biltmo’ last year and was such a blast. Anyone else interested in checking it out, drop me a PM. Mrs. molo3 and I would love to hang out with some Bruuuce fans and have “a drink or a few”…

    molo3

    *edited to add: Bele Chere is July 23-25 this year, not the last weekend in July.

    Hey everyone out there!!

    MVF, I’ll cross my fingers that you get the job! Yes, Jackie, Monica and myself were taking on DPD and Molo3 and we crushed them. I’ve just been in rest mode since our victory and I’m sure they’re sulking in their defeat. 😆

    As far as I can tell, I don’t think there’s going to be a Bruuuce show at the Biltmo’ this year unless they add him. I looked earlier this week and the Biltmore has their schedule out but with no Bruce. 😥 We can always hope and pray for an add-on.

    Monica, try to get well and stay that way. Jackie, good to hear you’re still riding the waves….whatever that means. I just made that up. :D

    Clever SMP

    A little presumptive today, aren’t we, SMP? 8-) The men have been “layin’ in wait” while the women try to come up with a better plan! 😆 😆 😆

    Molo3, you’re “layin in wait” because you’re too pooped to get back up off the floor. If I recall, that’s where I left your dupa (butt in Polish) last time. 😆

    If I’m on the floor for any reason it’s from laughing at these absurdities you are putting forth. 😆

    I love it. Molo3, here it’s Lent and I was going to be nice to you but then I quickly changed my mine. ;)

    Yes, it would be nice if there was a gig soon so we could all get together again. Oh, what fun it was last year!!

    I have to agree, would be great to get together again. I would even put up with riding the bus again just to get there, as crazy as that sounds. 😆

    Any rumors as to what Bruce is up to these days???

    Monica,

    For our next get-together, just ask SMP to swing by and pick you up. She has her own private plane. At least that’s what she told me. 😆

    My guess is Bruce is working on the Broadway production. He was nearly everywhere in ’09, doing TV, late night and lots of touring. He’s a family man as well, so I’m sure he’s enjoying a well-deserved break.

    Molo3, yep, I think you’re right for once….not about the plane part but about Bruce working on the Broadway show. To Bruce’s standards, he’s probably never really laying low (although he should), but doing 107 different projects all at once. If only I had his energy and I’m younger than he is by 13 years. Ok, maybe not that many. 🙄

    Monica, there’s no way you’re doing that 37+ hour bus ride again. We can put together a ‘Monica’ fund and all pitch in and get you a plane ticket, even though it’s not on my plane that Molo3 speaks of. :)

    Wow, you are being nice to me today, SMP. How long does this Lent thing last? 😆

    If Bruce schedules a show in Dallas this year I think that would be a great meeting spot. It should be warm weather, there’s a lot of other stuff to see and do and Monica wouldn’t have to travel too far.

    Molo3, you have until Easter for me to be nice to you. It’s all over after that. 😆

    Now Dallas would work for me. I’ve never been to TX. Switched planes there (again, a commercial plane, not my personal one ha) but never have visited there.

    SMP,

    I guess I’ll have to live with that! I think you’ll find you like being nice to me so much that it will be difficult for you to go back to your mean ways! 😮

    By the way, no one is buying this whole thing about you flying commercial. We know you’re a jet-setter, so just embrace it! ;)

    My 2nd vote for a meet-up of Bruuuce.com’ers would be Atlanta, GA. I’m sure David would agree!

    Ok, I give but only because it’s Lent and I have to be nice to Molo3 (this is gonna kill me) for a few more weeks. Trust me, I don’t think my niceness will last past Easter. 😆 So I want all of you to wait with Molo3 at your local airport and see how long it takes for me to pick you up in my private jet. We’ll see who’s right then!! :D

    Dallas, Atlanta, you name it. Hey, what about Denver??

    You’re enjoying this way too much! Are you telling everyone to wait at their local airport? Or do you want them to come to my local airport to wait for you? I think all this being nice has started to work on your mind! 😆

    Denver? Never heard of it. Is that near Canada or something? :ugeek:

    No, YOU need to go to everyone’s local airport, Molo3, and wait it out with them. Let me know how that goes. ;)

    Now you’re gettin’ Denver confused with Wisconsin, my first home. Now THAT’S close to Canada. Ya hey. :)

    Livin’ large in my Easter bunny suit. The price that people would pay to see that. Hell, it even scares me!! 😯

    Unlike you, I don’t have a private jet to take me anywhere and everywhere at a moment’s notice! I’ll just assume you’ll pick everyone up and meet me at my local airport. I’ll leave the light on for ya! :P

    I think I associated Denver with Canada because any time there is a commercial pertaining to Denver (mostly Coors) they always show snow-covered mountains and mention the Rockies and skiing. I don’t want anything to do with cold weather, snow or skiing. If it ever gets up to 90 degrees consistently in Denver then I’ll make a consideration.

    You own an Easter Bunny suit? That should be your avatar pic on here.

    Oh my gosh, Molo3, can you hear me laughing from here??? My stomach hurts from laughing so much.

    Ok, so we got the plan down: I’ll pick everyone up at their appropriate airport and then we’ll come get you, Easter suit or not. ;)

    Now Denver can have over-the-top hot summers. We’ve had summers with it over 100 for many consecutive days. Give me snow any day!!

    Jackie, glad we could be of entertainment to you. And free yet!! :)

    p.s. some things are better left without an actual picture. In this case, visualizing isn’t pretty either. 8-)
