A Cubs fan saw the post and went to his taunting right away. He left a post with all sorts of smack about our Stros. Bad move as I am a good smack talker myself. (Not that it is anything to be proud of.) But it was even a worse move on his part as the Cubs just got them selves swept out of yet another playoffs. Not that I hold it against him. I understand his reasons for the friendly rivalry smack off. You should hear Mr.Candler and me when we pit the Astros and the Cards against each other.<BR/> By the way, have you ever read Armed and Dangerous? The book about the Astros' 2004-2005 seasons.

I'll be sure to do it as soon as I can!<BR/><BR/>Johanna, dancing is definitely one of the most exciting occupations!! *happy sigh* Also, I love to read your blog. :-D (I found you on Mrs. Chancey's site. *grin*) <BR/><BR/>Robert, OH! I remember you now! :-D A fellow Texas Astros fan!!!!! :-D I totally understand about the blog thing. :-) Yeah, we have a bunch of Cubs fans up here...*sigh* :-) Oh well. Say hello to my beloved home state for me! :-) Great to hear from you!<BR/><BR/>God bless y'all and thank you for your comments!<BR/><BR/>In Christ Alone,<BR/><BR/>Jessica NicoleJessica McDonaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03144251881189113892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12219625.post-5427328865301422322008-10-03T12:13:00.000-05:002008-10-03T12:13:00.000-05:00Sorry but at the time it seemed like a good idea n...Sorry but at the time it seemed like a good idea not to say who I was. Well not so much that, but if I had posted other then anonymous then it would have left a link to my page. And with you being up in Cubs land and most likely with a few fans of there's following your blog, I did not want any Cubs fans getting on to my blog at that time. I have some post up right now lamenting the end of the Astros season. And right now a taunting post from a Cubs fan is not what I wanted. Not because the Cubs won the division I can handle that, it is a game and sometime you win, and sometimes you do not. However I am still sore about what the Cubs' fans did i Milwaukee. They may have thought it was funny holding up signs saying "I like Ike." But ask the 38 eight bodies that washed up on to the beaches of our Texas coast, and see what they think about Ike. But then I bet not very many Cubs fans have known anyone that has been killed by a hurricane. So that is why I did not what to post under my name before. I really did not want to have to get mad at a Cubs fan that would only be trying to have some good old rivalry fun.<BR/> Oh, and BGO is not my initials. No, for some reason (cannot remember why now) I use my favorite chant. BGO! BGO! BGO! As in the second basemen for the Astros for the past twenty years.<BR/> My real name is Robert Lewis Dabney Martinez. You found me on "Good Reads" through the Candlers. And I did the same here. Josiah Candler has you on his followers list. I recolonized your name and knew you were an Astro's fan. And then saw the post on dancing. Then saw that yankee take a shot at Texas.<BR/><BR/> Robert L.<BR/><BR/>P.S. I am not worried about the Cubs fans now...What with another three game sweep pending.

It is such a wonderful way to have fun together and improve friendships in the most delightful way. Have I not already mentioned that I <I>love</I> dancing? I will dance and dance and dance no matter how much my feet her or my head aches. There is simply nothing more thrilling! <BR/><BR/>Our next dance will be on Valentines Day and I am looking forward to it with much anticipation! <BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing. =) Blessings,<BR/><BR/>~JohannaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17416688929079190293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12219625.post-53986600459848006482008-10-01T20:16:00.000-05:002008-10-01T20:16:00.000-05:00Great pictures, Jessica!

I read every post on your page...and I regret that I don't have time to look at the archives right now... :) perhaps later! :) The dancing looks like SO much fun. I love to dance and have never been able to do it with a partner before...only ballet...sigh. :) <BR/><BR/>I love your background! The Cutest Blog On The Block backgrounds are the BEST!

But for time's sake I will let that one go.<BR/> And as for dancing, it is indeed on of the most fun hobbies that I take part in. And if you are looking for more fun dances to learn, may recommend the square dance and the Salty Dog Rags. The Salty Dog Rags is my favorite.<BR/> And as for that remark that the Anonymous Dude (later I.D. as Jeremy) made about Texas and the endurance of her people. I am sure that if you lived in Texas and had to move out of her 100 degree weather to an lesser state, the least that you would ask for in return would be for the temperatures to be a little cooler then 80, in the shade. But then what would a yankee (with a small "y") no about such things.<BR/><BR/>bgoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12219625.post-9488804159710601282008-09-29T15:46:00.000-05:002008-09-29T15:46:00.000-05:00Oh...

Y'all should come join us sometime!!<BR/><BR/>Ana, *agreed* Fun! Fun! Fun! :-)<BR/><BR/>Ella, you should definitely try it sometime!!! SUCH fun! :-D<BR/><BR/>Emil, you're probably right. There were several of those moments when we were like, "Um. I have no idea what he's talking about." LOL! <BR/>And thank you, Emil! I certainly don't FEEL that short. It's just when I look at photos and actually see myself compared to everyone else. :-D Lol. Oh well. :-)<BR/><BR/>Jeremy, I'm glad to see that you've finally found something that you and Jane Austen have in common! :-D<BR/>Who's to say there's no danger in dancing?? I know a certain person who poses great danger when he dances. Danger to his partner who he flings across the room whenever they reel the set (though I must say, that kind of danger is awfully fun!). :-D If that's not danger I don't know what is. :-D And some types of dancing even have weapons. Take the sword dance for instance. :-D<BR/>You can't really know how truly "invigorating" dancing is until you've tried it yourself. :-)<BR/>Well personally, I believe Emil over you. :-)<BR/>And of course you're looking for a faerie-like occupation.

From what I saw, y'alls would argue bout what dance you were going to do, then dance for 20 minutes (the entire time telling me that the music was too fast) and then complain about the 80 degree heat (in the shade, and I thought you were from Texas?, get a drink, talk a while, then start the whole brutal cycle over again.
