Once went to a wedding in Bremond, but that's about it. I remember "Looking for Love in All the Wrong Places" was part of the music.

According to Uncle Linux, Bremond is for lovers.

Winning by cheating is just as impressive as winning fairly, probably even more so. Your opponent was better than you in every way, and you beat them with your brain.

Coolidge and Evant? Awesome! Grandfather was from Coolidge and headed through Evant on way to Goldthwaite next weekend.


Lived in Coolidge the first eleven years of my life (1955-66)..... still keep up with some of those old friends and aqaintances (where is spell check when you need it)...

Moved to the big city of Henrietta.

After BU, have lived in Ft Worth (78-79), Henrietta (late 1979-84), Mansfield (1984-90), Hillsboro (1990 - 2000) and now Woodway (since 2000).

Didn't know that anyone on here would even know where Coolidge was!!!

Born and raised in Waco. Moved to Fort Worth briefly before joining the Navy and spent boot camp in San Diego. Went to school then in Orlando and was later stationed on ships homeported in Norfolk, VA and San Diego, CA.

Moved back to Waco after getting out of the Navy and moved to Galveston and then to Norfolk, VA (both locations were for jobs in merchant marine). Then to South Hill, VA briefly and then to Roxboro, NC to meet my future exwife. Back to Waco after that. Then to Fort Worth and then to San Marcos and then back to Waco. Whew! I'm pooped! I think I'll stay here in Waco and retire, it's not too small and not too big and the pace suits me.
