Best damn second place team in baseball. So, now the Yanks are the Eastern Division Champs, but the Red Sox are the American League Champs, but they are also in the Eastern Division. Good Gawd!! Bud Selig has made a mess. But it sure has put the dough in MLB coffers. Plus of course the kiddies are missing out on the games because they start em too late and run until past midnight on school nights. Way to invest in the future of baseball. Just to accommodate the TV network. Another thing, what's with all the broken bats especially during the ALCS and a few in the Series? I do not recall so many broken bats in a series ever!

Yes, John it may be easier to get out now without all the mark and avoid hostility. But, if in a marriage one partner does not agree to leave it makes it very tough to do with out breaking up the marriage.

It was never said in so many words that you had to get out of debt, however in my case it was suggested or recommended the, "you sell your house and move outside 250mile radius of HQ." I asked BC . What if I do not want to?.. His reply, " We'll cross that bridge when we get to it" So read between the lines..That puke was telling us to sell and move..Did he say those precise words, No...I was such a wuss, But I still got's my family naw naw!!

Peter & Martha Credit, went from Mi. to Columbus Oh. Bumped into them at a SNS @ HQ some years ago. They ended up in Kansas City last I heard.

When I got involved in the mid 80's. The Corp that I met were great. It was not until I'd say 1993 in our area that Corp that had been in our area started moving out. They fired Limb Cord and brought in a hard a** (who is not around now because he decided after the LCM debacle to cut and run) and the sh8t hit the fan. Current corp at the time were place under microscopic exams and then shipped out and the replacements were real a***oles. Nowdays they pretty much leave people be otherwise they would total fold Still, spit'n out the kool aid

Congrats John & Hope, It's been a few years since we've tossed back a few brews. Perhaps someday we'll do it again. Still spit'n Kool aid out.

Hooner, I know what you are talking about. Pre-planned in case I'm called on, But other times it suprised me, it flowed out. Maybe my subconscience kicking in after the having it drilled in. To this day I hear SIT and it sounds repetitive. I see it written in the Bible. So what say all of you out there, Is it real or power of suggestion, subconscience gobbledygook? or what.

If you went to a festival on a farm in Ohio and arrived later than expected because of rain and did not report to the full meal tent to check in but rather made sure your tent was set up and your family taken care of first, prior to reporting in to your overseer(can you say Massa?)and then being ratted on by that overseer for being late in reporting in, only to be confronted and accused of casual thinking by his overseer...you just might be in a cult

It is remarkable that a national News media outlet did not pick up on the Martindale fiasco and run with it. I saw what the reporting did to Henry Lyon's in The National Baptist Convention in the late 90's. Was TWI considered small potato's by the media? It would make a great expose' on corruption and the havoc wreaked upon people lives. They are "International" or so they say, but only coverage I have heard of is local newspapers in the region of HQ

Thanks Raf and rascal I'll be sure to be careful. Thanks for the seat and I take cream only. I know several folks here and I'm sure some of them know me and my family. I don't know of any way I can acknowledge them without compromising my situation. It's been quite a journey from PFAL in The mid-80's to the present and how the H*ll it got to this place, I kick myself in the butt for getting involved in the first place as a single guy. Now, I just steel myself and move on.

I'm new here. Read a lot of the posts and unfortunately I'm still in. Why? My spouse a corpse grad, now just an advanced class grad would d-i-v-o-r-c-e- me! I hate to leave the young'ns. So I just don't swallow the Kool-aid, I pretend to. I threw away a my notes from hell after the fall of the, lol, spiritual head cheese. Now I don't take any notes and nobody confronts me, go figure!!
