2. Here I am, back in November, 2005...taken by KitchenWitch!

[RFKHumphreyObama]

3. You look great in all your photos CaliforniaPeggy

But I really do like that one -although it's hard to choose

[CaliforniaPeggy]

5. My dear socialdemocrat!

That is very sweet of you to say.....

I was having a wonderful lunch with KitchenWitch.....and it shows!

Thank you so much......

:loveya: :hug:

[miss_american_pie]

32. You look like you have a halo

dear angel Peggy.

:hi:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

36. My dear miss_american_pie.......

No, sweetie, no halo.....

Just backlit by the sun!

But I thank you so much!


:loveya: :hug:

[Pied Piper]

41. My dear California Peggy

I am a long time-lurker, few-time poster, but I would love to meet you sometime. If you ever find yourself in Boston, please look me up. All of your posts are inspirational to me. I would be most pleased to show you and Mr. California Peggy around town. If you'ld like to see the Boston Pops, I have an "in" - (Hint: I work there.)

Please, don't ever stop with the sunset photos!

Pied Piper

[CaliforniaPeggy]

43. My dear Pied Piper!

Well, you could just about knock me over with a feather!

I just added you to my buddy list....and trust me, if we ever find ourselves in Boston, I will be sure to let you know in advance.....

I thank you so much for your very kind comments.....

Post more, OK? Let us get to know you.....


:hi:

[Pied Piper]

46. Woo-hoo!! I'm on California Peggy's buddy list!

Well, I guess it just doesn't get much better than this!

DU is the best! I recently reconnected with a high school chum of mine (noonwitch). She and I used to carpool together to the local youth symphony orchestra - she is a violinist; guess what I play! I hadn't spoken to her since HS (early 80's).

During the DNC here in Boston a while ago, I was so excited that there was going to be a DU get-together at the Squealing Pig, only a few steps from my front door, but, alas, the meeting was canceled at the last minute. And I was so looking forward to meeting Will Pitt and the incorrigible Matcom!

We'll be in touch.

Pied Piper

[Left Is Write]

51. Back that far, eh?

I think that one is my favorite.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

76. You are too funny, my dear Left Is Write!

I do like to post relatively recent stuff......'cause that's how I look in real time!

I'm glad this one is your favorite.....I love it too. My other fav is the one of me at the Farmer's Mkt., back in August. Pink shirt, and sunglasses.....

:loveya: :hug:

[Left Is Write]

185. I remember that one too!

[swag]

105. A great pic, Peggy.

Nice shot, Kitchenwitch.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

109. My dear swag......

I thank you so very much...... :blush:

[bigwillq]

132. I always enjoy this one!

:hi:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

159. My dear bigwillq.......

I'm so glad you do.......so do I! It's not often you find me looking angelic!

:blush:

[Gold Metal Flake]

4. Old pix of me at work.

That was a particularly bad day.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

8. Oh yes.......sure it was you!

I think I remember a much nicer, sexier pic in a very recent pic thread!

Does this, perchance, ring any bells? Hmmm?

[Gold Metal Flake]

44. I do believe that is Driver8's hand on the right.

I'm slouching. The second chin is coming in nicely, though! The extra jowls help with making Warner Bros' cartoon sound effects. :-)

Hiya, Ms. Peggy! :hi:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

45. I should have said that you're in the red shirt...and DBoon is to the

right in the picture......

WHAT double chin? I do NOT see any! You look terrific....

WHEN are you going to believe me? :banghead:

Driver8 is not in this pic....I think!


Hiya back atcha, my dear Opposite Reaction! :hi:

[Gold Metal Flake]

54. Eeep! I believe you!

Please don't Banghead.gif! That just looks painful!


As for Driver8, I was speaking of the hand on the chair next to DBoon. Can you see it in the pix? We could call it Driver-1/16. ;)

Ah, here is the pix thread you posted. http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=4430116
That's Dee Dee next to DBoon, and Driver8 is next to her. No, it matters not at all, I excel in pointing out the pointless. :crazy:

[driver8]

106. You would be correct!! That is indeed, my hand.

I am looking forward to the next get together!

[specimenfred1984]

79. "Right Outta Hell"

William Wyndom, that guy could really act! I saw him in a restaurant once and just sat there the whole time thinking "there's a starship captain".

What a geek I am!

[Gold Metal Flake]

93. "Pure anti-proton. Absolutely pure!" Captain Decker.

A great character actor. That's one of my favorite episodes. A great episode for Scotty fans as well. Hell, everybody got some good lines. It's cool that you saw him in person. :envy smilie:

[Ariana Celeste]

[Oeditpus Rex]

103. That nose is *perfect*

Lips are fabulous.

Eyes got it goin' on.

[GOPisEvil]

26. I aim to please.

:)

[Cobalt Violet]

67. That looks like a ton o' fun.

Just kickin' back and relaxing.
That's a good true essence.:thumbsup:

[GOPisEvil]

69. I enjoyed that day tremendously.

I'd like to lay on that boat every day.

[u4ic]

94. Is that the "jump me" pose?

:rofl:

Great shot. What a beautiful marina.

[GOPisEvil]

That's in Seattle, actually. It is gorgeous.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

25. Here's one you might not have seen.....when he visited us with huskerlaw..

[GOPisEvil]

27. Can my grin get any cheesier?!

:rofl:

Thanks for posting that, Peggy!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

28. My dear Evil!

You're welcome! And, BTW, your grin is NOT either cheesey!

I like this pic a lot!

:loveya: :hug:

[La Lioness Priyanka]

14. i would kill for arms like yours

[djeseru]

22. Heavy boxes up down flights of stairs...

...whew...thank you. :)

I'll trade my arms for a...um, the ability to fill in a red satin bustier. :o

[u4ic]

95. I LOVE your hair!

Red AND curly.

[Blue-Jay]

12. Why the hell not?

Me, Ellen Forradalom, and Batboy livin' large in Chicago:

[Blue-Jay]

63. Dear Blue-Jay: You guys are cute!

Love,

Blue-Jay









:cry:

PS: Except for batboy.

[cfield]

120. That looks like fun!

I want to have friends to have fun with!!!

[Ptah]

13. Ok, here's one from Thanksgiving

With two long-time friends - since the late sixties.



:hi:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

18. My dear Ptah......

How nice to see a new pic of you....with the bonus of your friends!

BTW, did the mail bring you anything from me, just yet?

Good to see you tonight, neighbor!

:loveya: :hug:

[Ptah]

29. I was trying to decide whether to start a "Be jealous, I got

snail mail from Peggy" thread.

It came at the right time, as I am recovering from a cold.

Your card with gorgeous pic and touching verse, with
Christmas letter made my day.

:woohoo:





:loveya: :pals:
:hug:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

37. My dear Ptah......

I am so glad that you've recieved it....and on a day when you needed a lift!

And look at my reward....those wonderful fireworks, and the awesome one of the sun!

:loveya: :hug: :pals:

[flvegan]

15. Hey, I'm in early!!! Complete with completely played out pic...

Okay, okay...for those that care, new pics this weekend.

[Blue-Jay]

16. Hey, look at those guns!

Almost makes me want to play for the "other team".




almost.






OK. Not really.

[ronnykmarshall]

176. Makes me glad that I do!

[Left Is Write]

50. New ones appreciated...

but old ones are too!

[LeftyMom]

21. It's a twofer: LeftyKid and myself

[LynzM]

52. Love your skirt, dude

I oughta find a pic of my kiddo in her sling, too :)

[LeftyMom]

59. Thank you.

I was so sad when LK was too big to sling anymore. :(

[LynzM]

88. Awww....

I can imagine that's so hard to let go of... we made it work last summer, but I think that may have been it for us :( Unless I go the route of an Ergo, or something along those lines. We'll see.

How old was LK when he stopped being willing (or got too big?) to sling?

[LeftyMom]

89. He's still willing, but he just got too darn heavy by 3 or so (he's big.)

In retrospect I probably should have hung it up a bit sooner, toting around a kid a third of my weight on my hip with his legs tangling up with my knees really didn't do much for my back.

[flvegan]

71. Upon reflection, I change my mind

This is my favorite pic of you. Many reasons for it, all less selfish than my previous.

Good lookin' kid, there. Seems to like being around those animals...

[LeftyMom]

72. You're so sweet to me

It's hard to believe he was ever so small, looking at his fat little starfish hand reaching out there. His head comes up to the bottom of my ribcage now. :(

Thanks for emailing him back, it made his day to get a message and be able to read it all himself. :)

edit: New pics this weekend? :woohoo:

[flvegan]

75. Sweet? Me? Oh, ask around.

I'm certainly not of that sort.

They grow up so fast, huh. Nice to know that little man is being raised as he is. Goddess help you, he's going to be twice as bad as I am by the time he's 10.

His e-mail made my day. I'm glad he's getting some fun out of his new toy.

Yeah, this weekend. I've gotta start taking shots for that contest...see where the REALLY bad is, and try to improve in a couple VERY short weeks...

[LeftyMom]

80. It's scary how fast they grow

Absolutely worth it though. Those quiet moments when he was a few days old and falling asleep at the breast were awesome, but cuddling up next to him while he reads me a book is every bit as fulfilling.

I don't know what you mean about being twice as bad as you. You're a good guy. If he grew up to be a lot like you, I'd be thrilled.

I'd ask you to send me the pics, but of course I'd be the least objective eye ever. Send 'em anyhow. :)

[William Bloode]

24. Me and my fat head.

Not veru flattering, but hey some of us are born ugly lol!

[fudge stripe cookays]

30. Tarted up for some big event...

[miss_american_pie]

33. How lovely

What a beautiful bride.

[fudge stripe cookays]

121. Aw thanks!

You and your son are adorable below. Welcome to DU! :hi:

[Blue-Jay]

34. Tart!

Most hookers don't go to so much trouble.


(seriously, though; that's a kickass pic!)

[fudge stripe cookays]

123. {{{{giggle}}}

That's just me. I'm one of those HIGH MAINTENANCE hookers. :P

[Left Is Write]

48. Big event?

Looks like Tuesday morning shopping to me. ;)

(Actually, you look quite beautiful in your gorgeous gown!)

[fudge stripe cookays]

124. Thanks!

It had that unfortunate butt bow, but did look quite nice from the front. :crazy:

[Beware the Beast Man]

87. Hubba-hubba!

:P

[fudge stripe cookays]

125. Why, I'm flattered!

Mr. Corleone, sir!

[ronnykmarshall]

177. I love that pic.

I keep expecting you to say "Fiddle dee-dee!", cuz with your dress poofed out like that .... it's looks like one of them thar "Gone w/ The Wind" dresses.

[fudge stripe cookays]

180. I won't think about that now...

I'll go crazy if I do. I'll think about it tomorra..that's what I'll do. After all, tomorra is anothah day....

Thanks sweetie!
MWAH. Poofy dresses rule.

fsc,
enjoys being a girl

[miss_american_pie]

31. Hoping this works this time

Me and my older son at a wedding a couple years ago.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

39. All right! You figured it out! Good for you!

It gets easier as you post more pics, I promise!

And this is lovely of you and your son!

Thank you.....

:loveya: :hug:

[miss_american_pie]

147. Thanks CP

:hi:

[RetroLounge]

70. Very nice picture!

:hi:

RL

[miss_american_pie]

148. Thank you RL

:hi:

[u4ic]

96. You look like one of those

old time movie stars, ala Ava Gardner. Your son is such a cutie!

[miss_american_pie]

149. Thank you

:blush:

[driver8]

107. That is a great picture! You have a beautiful smile. n/t

[supernova]

35. Here's me

[RFKHumphreyObama]

117. Again, you look great in that picture Supernova

Absolutely stunning

[supernova]

118. So, where's your pic, socialdemocrat?

:D

[Beware the Beast Man]

38. Me, shortly after placing a hit on a "business associate."

[Blue-Jay]

40. Now you listen to me, you smooth talking son-of-a-bitch.

Let me lay it on the line for you and your boss, whoever he is. Johnny Fontane will never get that movie. I don't care how many dago guinea wop greaseball goombahs come out of the woodwork.

[Richardo]

140. I'm German-Irish

[Richardo]

174. "Well listen here, my kraut-mick friend...."

(Do I have to do EVERYTHING around here?)

[ghostsofgiants]

81. Very Brando-esque.

[Beware the Beast Man]

84. Is that before or after the 40 quarts of pasta?

:P

[cassandra uprising]

83. Are you talking to me?!?

I hope so...

roar

[Beware the Beast Man]

85. Oh, you!

:loveya:

[swag]

104. You had been close to this associate, hadn't you?

I am sorry for your loss, but you are right: business is business.

[sasquatch]

138. Jesus, hasn't Carson Palmer been through enough

You sons of bitches about ended his career last Sunday, now you're going to "Take care of him". BTW, I congragulate you in making a bold move by losing the mullet unlike other Steelers' fans.
:D:hi:

[Beware the Beast Man]

152. I'm going to be diplomatic-

I feel really bad for him- from what I have read, his injury is career-threatening. I hope he recovers fully. But still, you have to admit, that hit was unintentional, no bones about it. As for the rest of the taunting throughout the game- fair's fair.

[lizziegrace]

42. August 2005

[Left Is Write]

47. I got late into LeftyMom's thread, so here you go...

New Year's Eve...




And just for fun - this one is from St. Patrick's Day 1995...

[Aristus]

53. What gorgeous pics, Left Is Write!

I don't like that you hid your face in the first one, but at least we can see your beautiful lips. And that second pic! Make a good Irishman put down his whiskey and take notice! ;-)

[Left Is Write]

55. Thanks!

I was just a crazy little leprechaun for a day. :D

[Aristus]

56. Umm..

I don't think leprechauns have legs that nice! B-)

[flvegan]

57. Oh, my...I just...I don't have the words...I...

Nevermind. Wow.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

58. Here be me:

[hobo_baggins]

60. Heres another one of me...lookin pissed or something

Somehow I manage to look completely different in alot of my photos.

[Misunderestimator]

114. So...

"ASC Systems currently serves Department of Defense, Intelligence Community, Federal Government Organizations and Businesses across the Washington, DC metropolitan area."

Cool... Like wiretapping software and stuff?

[hobo_baggins]

172. Well technically thats what I wish my company was doing.

currently its just me, sitting in my bedroom watching porn

[LaraMN]

170. If the picture were zoomed out, would it look something like this?

(Sans Tommy, of course)

[hobo_baggins]

171. How'd you know my nickname was the hammer?

[LaraMN]

173. Oh, I have my sources.

[Cobalt Violet]

61. It's not too recent.

[GOPisEvil]

62. Your sweatshirt appears to reflect your mood.

:D

[Cobalt Violet]

64. True, true.

It's one of the better picture of me. It captures my true essence.

[GOPisEvil]

65. Ah, my true essense is captured upthread.

The one of me laying on the boat deck. My picture is next to "laissez faire" in the dictionary.

[miss_american_pie]

151. Great pic!

:hi:

[Cobalt Violet]

186. That's me pre-Reagan era.

I sure do miss those days.

[Cobalt Violet]

66. You're so photogenic.

It must be great.

[johnnie]

73. Here I am in Nov. of 1963

[u4ic]

98. You haven't changed a bit!

86. Stud.

Now you let everyone know about our dirty little secret....

:loveya::spank::loveya:

(I love the last pic the best of all!)

[Gold Metal Flake]

102. Nice Rickey

Still got it?

[RetroLounge]

111. Nope, sorry to say.

I had about 15 guitars all in all and sold them all except my Les Paul Custom Black Beauty.

:hi:

RL

[Gold Metal Flake]

128. Aw. Same with my P-bass. And my vintage ribbon mics.

And my tube audio. And my Altec theater drivers. And my collection of vintage guitar amps. And my rare power tubes.

:cry:

[RetroLounge]

129. and all my vintage analog pedals

and my Marshall Stack.

RL

[Gold Metal Flake]

130. Oh, I can build a Marshall head.

I still have SOME parts, although I should add to that sold list my collection of power & output transformers and my raw speaker collection.

Well, it's less to move, right?

Still have two McIntosh tuners. Oh fuck! I just realized that the guvament is trying real hard to move to digital broadcasts so they can reallocate the radio spectrums. Fat lot of good a sweet tube McIntosh FM tuner would be if there is nothing to listen to but zeros & ones.

Whaaaaah!

[supernova]

110. You are so handsome!

:D What a great smile! And kind eyes.

[RetroLounge]

112. Aw, go on...You're gonna make me blush...

:hug:

RL

[miss_american_pie]

153. Nice

You have very kind eyes, RL.

78. You have two of the most soulful eyes I've ever seen

Can't tell it in this shot — they're overwhelmed by cuteness. But they leapt out at me in a recent one.

:loveya:

[cassandra uprising]

82. nice!

:thumbsup:

[ghostsofgiants]

90. Ah, might as well...

That painting over your left shoulder looks cool. One of your paintings?

That's a nice picture of you.... :D

Oh, and here's me with a nice big cup of tequila!

[JohnnyCougar]

100. I got more new ones!

[ronnykmarshall]

[JohnnyCougar]

179. LOL!

[Omphaloskepsis]

101. Damn.. A horrible pic..

Looks like my face is broken.

108. Once again, the only pic I have of me in photobucket...

That is me on the left holding my son, Daniel.

[miss_american_pie]

154. Did you pinch him?

;)

[driver8]

175. It looks that way, doesn't it? Nope -- he was just being a typical

11 month old. :)

[miss_american_pie]

187. Tell me about it

I have one of those.

;)

[In_The_Wind]

113. You look so happy and truly beautiful, Mrs. Sniffa.
