Balloon Talk #11


This has been a very difficult one, indeed, with so many outstanding comments. Each time I post a Balloon Talk, I want to display several separate captions! Opinions vary every entry and I have the task of choosing, or better, "electing" one to feature. I hope every new viewer will take the time to read ALL the comments that have been made. It just keeps getting better I tells ya!
And speaking of Balloon Talk...Friday, June 10, will be the last one until September. I will be on vacation and will not be able to Photoshop anything until I return to Kuwait. I will be reading and commenting daily and have many Just for Laughs and Random Word Writing Challenges scheduled for your active, sanctified imaginations. Thanks, everyone, for being a major part of the mix.

    Definitely one for "The Boys"... Even we grenade weilding women consider ourselves too demure to engage in such fisticuffs...

    To Stranger: My wife Stacy gets credit for the first post. Been a follower of CC for some time but felt a little intimidated about posting. The talent on here is outstanding. Known Eddie for over 25 years and he gets credit for introducing me to reformed theology.
