  1. Laugh all you want, Barbara Bush. Any woman who breaks her leg sledding with the grandkids has to be a good time.
  2. It was all done through paypal and all the buyers were happy to have them and very pleasant. Not sure what the intended uses were.
  3. so it was

    Ode to Michigan

    I laughed pretty good at that, I admit thoughts of launching my shovel at the snowplow driver amid words not to be printed here. They only come once you are done with the driveway. Living in the UP of Michigan is all that for sure beautiful and miserable all at once.
  4. I sold mine on ebay after a house cleaning, there is actually a market out there since they are hard to get. Probably not the best way but I'm sure no buyers were blind to the content if you bid on it you knew what it was.
  5. I chose "None" but if there was an "all" that could have applied to for the reasons that potato listed earlier. I think Thomas Bumgartners options have some value too, but maybe add the possibility of nuclear fallout to that ;)
  6. No doubt the Japanese cars are great, I had a 1992 Geo Metro marketed by GM but made by Suzuki. I loved the car at nearly 50mpg and it was a 5 speed, laugh all you want but it was so light that it really would fly. It was traded for a Cavalier, I really liked that car too it ran great did an average 33 mpg highway and with very little maintenance other than the oil changes and such treated me well for many years. Traded that for a my dads old truck that had fewer miles, the truck and I didn't get along very well and since it was my house it had to move. I now have a car payment for a vehicle I think is just OK, and my old Cavalier? Still going strong
  7. Every organization has the nut jobs. I was in TWI when Waco happened, was actually studying with my Mom quite a bit since she was taking the Advanced class that summer. We saw the news with the reaction "who would ever follow a psycho like that!" Kind of Ironic isn't it, I'm not alone am I ;)
  8. I have found something else I am happy to have not witnessed while in. I have no problem with guns when used responsibly by people who do not need anti-psychotics. Speaking of which 2 more days until deer season (rifle) in Michigan, nummy venison. I don't hunt so I don't own a gun, no need.
  9. I had to choose other also for what I did after leaving. Basically carried on with life, finished school and busted butt to do it. Found out I was booted from my Mom, twig was at my parents house so I showed up regular twig night and things weren't right. Mom was kicking back smoking a cigarette and dad was in a funk, it hit him hard since he was corp at one time. They disbanded for lack of a better word our whole twig and only one was allowed to stay if he was able to get his wife in line, she was non cooperative and he chose his family I am glad to say. The LC sent over someone who was in corp to do all the dirty work and then weeks later they threw her out once she got rid of everyone. It was pathetic and none of us were supposed to communicate but we did and I saw many at my wedding a few weeks later even a few who were still in and came anyway cause they thought the decisions were BS. Needless to say they didn't last much longer and they were in for about 30 years too.
  10. I guess I have nothing to complain about with the bear that knocked my pack around when I was peacefully sleeping in a tent. At least he didn't do that to it!
  11. I read the book a few weeks ago and was appalled at the abuse and manipulation that she suffered. Kristens Mothers strength of character really impressed me, she stood by her the whole time. She had the sense to not push knowing it would really push away. After reading I was also thankful that my time in TWI was not like that. I didn't see any of the abuses to that extent, I saw a lot of talking down to and a lot that just didn't click (but very mild in comparison) the people in my area were pretty good, it was the leadership that was imported to my area I wasn't too crazy about.
  12. Puts a new twist on "keep your friends close, but your enemies closer"
  13. Didn't we have to stay on our toes because the devil knew the word inside and out, makes you think doesn't it.
  14. I get them too, click the report phishing button on Hotmail every time but they keep coming.
  15. I like to think people can change their ways, many of us have done things in the past we are not happy about and that is not who we are now. Lets hope he has been separated from that life long enough to see it clearly. God forgives we just need to ask.
