Thank you so very, very much!  No matter how much you tell them and talk to them, they just don't seem to get it.  I appreciate your help Mum.

Kelsey Smith was the young girl abducted from a Target Store parking lot and then murdered. Don't think there was any internet connection in this case. Also the still missing presumed murdered Donna Jou was apparently the victim of an online predator who she met via a craigslist ad.

Here are a few internet related abductions:

LoRain? If you'd like to pick out an avatar (you don't have to if you don't want one), here's a link with some to choose. Not required, just thought I'd mention it.

Construction update sortof.  Furniture in place even though the walls are bare.  We don't want to put nails in the wall yet for paintings etc, lol    We still have a ton of construction stuff outside, mostly in front that won't be cleaned up before our 4th of July party tomorrow....oh well, they will just have to understand.

Anyone grow up with Bozo the clown? I use to watch him daily as a toddler in Chicago Also Mr.Kangaroo and Sesame Street..

(Snip)
LOS ANGELES - Larry Harmon, who turned the character Bozo the Clown into a show business staple that delighted children for more than a half-century, died Thursday of congestive heart failure. He was 83.

His publicist, Jerry Digney, told The Associated Press he died at his home.

Although not the original Bozo, Harmon portrayed the popular clown in countless appearances and, as an entrepreneur, he licensed the character to others, particularly dozens of television stations around the country. The stations in turn hired actors to be their local Bozos.

Bozo — portrayed in Chicago for many years by Bob Bell — was so popular that the waiting list for tickets to a TV show eventually stretched to a decade, prompting the station to stop taking reservations for 10 years. On the day in 1990 when WGN started taking reservations again, it took just five hours to book the show for five more years. The phone company reported more than 27 million phone call attempts had been made.

By the time the show bowed out in Chicago, in 2001, it was the last locally produced version. Harmon said at the time that he hoped to develop a new cable or network show, as well as a Bozo feature film.

You did it!  House looks great!  Enjoy your party and take off that hard and put on your sunglasses and relax in the sun.  You earned it.

House looking good, Klaas....enjoy your party tomorrow.  We just watched the town fireworks from our back yard.   

*******, I read about Bozo and remember him well.  I may be older but remember from long ago.

[mishy]

Wow Klaas, that's quite a transition! It looks terrific!! I love the color of the carpet, and the color of the wall with the TV on it...The fireplace looks great too!!

Happy 4th monkeys!!!!!!

Jay Leno was  His show was clean and funny. We sat in 11th row, and he is much better looking in person. I think he looks good on TV, but I did not realize what a good looking man he is.

I like Jay and I have met him in person..He always makes me laugh  I didn't realize he was good looking though  Glad you got to see Jay as he is one of my favorites

[klaasend]
