    I'm baaaaaaaaaaaaacccccckkkkk! Hey Lifted Up... how are you. I seem to be busier these days, doing who knows what.... but it was time to say hey to my good buddy LU Hope you are doing well. Heard from any of our other 8th Corps buddies like Hawk lately. Keep well good friend, Pegger

    Guess you're right Lifted Up
  3. LOL - You guys can always make me laugh..... I guess I was at that Corps gathering too, but there were always tirades about something or other.... so I don't remember that one in particular. Must be due to my "old-timers" memory. Oh well, I defer to my elders on this one anyway. Pegger

    Why? Because you talk so much? ..... not hardly
  5. Anybody have info on Chad and Tandy? They were in Utah in 1997, when I got the boot. Would love to get in contact with them.

    Yeah, we'll let them sink on their own.... :)
  7. "BTW Are they ever going to finish the road construction up there on I5" LOL - I doubt that construction up here will ever get done. If it's not one section, it's another <_<
  8. Boy, was I surprized to see that we (the ever humble 8th Corps) had more posts than the 6th. Talk about being shocked. I add a few lines here to contribute to your cause (and off course knock the 9th down another notch - LOL). pegger (aka peg-o)

    Hi Hawk and Lifted ... good to hear from you again. Sorry I haven't posted for a bit. Between work and play, haven't been near my computer for a few days. <_< Interesting to hear from "Kat" as well. I remember you from our time together in Kansas. Can't remember... were you ever in Washington State in the 80's? I know some of the sicketh were, not sure about you Kat. There were some crazies in the sicketh, but I will say this - I learned a lot from my elder Corps, so take a bow and dance a little I will say this about the 9th Corps. I never really knew you guys, so it's rather hard for me to be jealous, or envious of you all. I knew your elders (1st-8th Corps) much better. You do seem to have a desire to talk/post a lot (most of which I have never bothered to read). Do you really have that much to say? Or do you guys just like to hear yourselves talk/post? Were we humble? Hmmmmm.... I think Lifted covered that. We may not have as many posts as the 9th, but you know, I'll be content with what we've got. We'll plod along. I have the greatest respect for my 8th Corps bros that post. My hats off to you. Pegger

    Yes... it seems that though I finally left in 1997, I was still involved off and on for quite a while. <_<

    Can't remember when the POTP came out from Chris Gear. I had been somewhat involved with twi between 1980-1986 (after leaving the Corps), but in the Fall of 1986 there seemed to be a lot of division within the Corps in California. I ended up leaving then. Got re-involved 1993-1997 in Utah. Left in 1997 - thank goodness. Am thankful for you and other friends though :) Peg
  14. Sorry to hear that as well :( . Was a sweet guy when I knew him. Took my first PFAL class at his house (in 1975). Knew his kids when they were little. Is his first wife still around? Peg ps... Dale did you get my email? my address is pjkelly52aol.com

    So true. I understand why many would be angry, etc. Many were betrayed... I will say this - my WOW years were challenging, but okay. I have no major complaints regarding our first year in res. Now that year was a challenge for me, but I learned a lot and formed some good friendships. It was hard - but good for me. I know that some sickth corps had issues with GW; but was he really the problem? Some seemed pretty rebellious - of course you'll have problems then. My dad died right before we went back in res for our last year. That just took the rug out from under me. I was not impressed with the Corps Coordinators at emporia that year.That next year, I just no longer had the heart to try and return with the 9th Corps. My main issues with TWI were after I left. Mainly 1997. Had issues with my Limb Leader and his wife. Talk about thought police. I have nothing good to say about them, so I'll leave it at that. My good memories revolve around the friends I made and the things I learned. If people have issues with that - so be it. I've left the other crap behind... don't need that .... anymore. Pegger

    Yeah, I was noticing that they have us outnumbered by a few thousand posts. Of course that doesn't speak to the quality of their posts......blab, blab, blab LOL
  17. Ah yes... now that I'm back I will endeavor to keep us close to the top... or on the top (with a little help from my dear friend Lifted Up). As he might say - the Eighth might be few in numbers here, but we are tops
  18. Anybody know what happened to Ben Neily?

    Well, there may not been many of us here - but I'm gonna try and get the 8th back on top.

    LOL - interesting times we had, eh? Oh well. It's good to remember an interesting period in our lives. There are many things I wouldn't change. Of course we have all moved on since that time. It's good to remember friends though. Peg :)

    OMG - how could I forget Zeek the Greek. I loved that guy (as a bro). Yeah, that was an interesting time on the hike, etc. I remember us all getting to the barn and the sky just letting loose after we were in there. Also, night of silence before communion. And then doing those chickens. I think I was one of the first to chop the head off. Figured I might as well get it over with. Interesting memories to be sure. Were you in the group that stayed in the barn? Or went hiking in the snow? I can't remember who all was in the snow hiking group as I became were hypothermic. I'm pretty sure I have your email in my address book - so will email later. Catch you soon, Peg

    Hey there - Lifted Up... good to be chatting with you again. Been too long. I remember times on stripping crew too. Can't remember if it was in Kenyon or where though. Guess those chemicals must have got to my brain. :blink: Fortunately for me I spent most of my time on the grounds crew - oh the great outdoors :) Funny about you guys going to the same High School at different times. Small world sometimes. So, how you doing? How's the family? Hope all is well. I'm living here in Washington with mom and my younger brother. We all moved here this past year. I didn't like San Diego (as a place to live), and she didn't like Utah winters (which are not THAT bad). So we ended up here - about 7 miles from where I grew up. Keep me posted on how things are going for you! Peg

    Duh - how could I forget Mike and Cindy Fort, Bill Greene, Tom Lally.... Gene Bianchi had been my WOW bro in Augusta, Georgia in 75-76. slowly, slowly some of these names are leaking back into my brain Peg

    Jeez - have I been a slacker or what... Sorry that it's been forever since I've been here. Guess I've just been busy. I've moved from Utah, back to Washington State (where I grew up and got involved with TWI). Been here a year now. Looking over that list of 8th Corps , sure brought back memories. It's amazing though what 29 years does to your memory :( . Some that I remember include Jack Wilson, Tina Abrell (?sp), Wynn and Lorinda Biddle, John and Lin McClellan, Jay ___. Of course I remember Lifted Up and Hawk too. What about the Singing Naval... and Pastor Ponder and Snorky. Peter Qualtiri (?sp). Paul Brooks. Come on guys, I need some help here. I see faces flashing before my eyes but where oh where have their names gone? We sure had a challenging first year, but there are many things I would not change about it. Hard yes, but worth it to me. Were any of you out there on that hike in Spring 1978 when it snowed? Brrrrrrrrr. Catch you soon, Peg
