yes yes, that will be my night tonight...troubleshooting the stuff that is
easy.....and cheap...yes, cheap!!
It is true, seems like it is only after warm up....I will start where you
suggested, following all lines.
There is one thing I noticed (please keep in mind it was dark by the time I
had the prob, so I haven't had good light until tonight):  There are some
very small vacuum lines....I think three of them?  or maybe one larger
diameter one, leading to this central connecting thing (round)..and the two
smal small lines come off of that.  One small line connects to something on
the right side of the engine compartment...the other is not connected to
anytthing.....these lines are at the back top of the motor.....this maybe my
problem?

This is a guess, this is only a guess:
You'll want to start by checking the vacuum lines at the distributor
advance and then working outward...
If it only happens when the engine's had plenty of time to warm up it's
most likely going to be somewhere in between the vacuum advance and the
idle stabilizer, or between the stabilizer and the manifiold... But this is
only a guess.  I always guess the easy, free things first, it's cheaper.
