One silly thing I have missed with my Mac is the Spider Solitaire game. I have searched to add one to my desk top but none really seem available. At any rate, I did find an online version at the AARP website. It’s ok. I have yet to win the double suit game. It has corny music which I can luckily turn off. But the biggest thing is that the cards are small. It seems that a card game at the AARP site should be, um, LARGE PRINT, if you know what I mean! Not that I’m getting old or anything. It’s just that larger cards would be easier to see. And if your target audience really is older people, well, you’d think they’d make it easier on all us those older people who want to hang around their website playing card games!
With January comes the first announcements of who will be headlining the local rodeo in March. The Livestock Show and Rodeo is a big deal here. And not just for the performers. Many of the people in our area really do want to see the rodeo! And there are quite a few who take part in the show and rodeo. I know a guy who used to be a rodeo clown. And lots of the kids here participate in riding events, calf roping, and showing the animals they have raised.
Those folks who follow the actual rodeo events will be pleased to know that the National Final Rodeo tickets are already on sale for December. Once you’ve attended your local rodeo, then you too might be hooked! To make sure you don’t miss out on the best in bull riding, steer roping and wrestling, bare back riding and bronc riding, barrel racing and all the other excitement the rodeo finals bring, be sure and stop by the NFR Tickets plaza to be one of the first in line for the tickets!
