You Just Can Not Make This Up
Everybody has a most embarrassing moment. We have several. LOL Back in the 1980’s the AID’s quilt made a stop at The University of Tampa. It was one of the last times it was shown. Now it’s much to larger. It was a very sober event. There was a very long line outside the arena waiting to get inside. As we entered the area on each side were 55 gallon tin barrels on the side was written “Donations”…. We reached into our pockets. OH NO we had just come from the grocery store. We had a couple one dollars and a big handful of change. We proudly dropped what we had into the tin barrel. Unfortunately we were one of the 1st to donated. The handful of coins made a very loud noise. Everybody turned and gave us “The Look”!!! OMG OMG OMG

Dishing with Mark and Carrie…The Space
The Space
This last weekend was the last of the 2 week performances of “The Laramie Project”, held at the new West Tampa venue, The Space. A reaction of Laramie community residents interviews by a theater group coming to in the Laramie, Wyoming. Community leaders, media and residents fueled their beliefs of the savage beating/murder of gay University of Wyoming student, Matthew Shepard on October 6, 1998.
The Space have an opportunity to redesign a theater stage for any setting or performance. They have a very nice bar within the space. Arched wooded doorways entrances, wood pieced board walls really accent the open space.
Their mission for the new venue is simple. Not to set any boundaries is to be a cultural force for the Tampa Bay community art scene. Advocating for a diverse voice in genre and new artists expression.
Both original, independent writings plus written published works are on the venue for consideration. This newly opened alternative theatre and theatre groups is a great added art event facility that we can all cheer.
To get on their mailing lists to hear about future and upcoming performances

Ancestry.com
One of the most interesting a fun thing we have done is to start a family ancestry search on www.Ancestry.com over the years we have re connected with our families in Europe and learned so many interesting things. A friend of ours in St. Paul Minnesota, who is a member of the Romania Genealogy Society recently was in our home town in Romania. Here she took photos in the cemetery and shared them with us.

You Just Can Not Make This Up
We were at the beach one day watching a group of goofy guys from New Jerseys. How can we tell they are from Jersey you ask. They were wearing socks with their sandals!!! The guys were eating hamburgers and frys. Just then a seagull swooped down and took a french fry. With a very heavy New Jersey accent he yelled…. “Yo did you see what that Fu*king DUCK just did!!!” We all started to laugh and he went on to say “Yo that’s just not Fu*king right!!!”
