  1. Glad to hear that you are doing ok.

    I'm so glad it was a successful surgery. Now the hard part of waiting. I know as I had to go through the same thing, I had a lump in my lymphnodes. All kinds of thoughts and worries. You are in the right place. I received lots of support and caring with some at greasespot.

    Your post really brought tears. You have a great heart, Felix and I wish you well!!!!!

  2. I wanted to point out for some who thinks that this was just a bridge that this is a bridge of many bridges that they are finding out are about ready to go here in Minnesota.

    And too its not only affected all of us with this tragedy it has also affected the shipping industry. We can't get the ships down the Mississippi. Its stopped to a standstill. We do a lot of business here on the Mississippi.

    So not only the tragedy of lost lives, but also other bridges are about ready to go, and our shipping is at a standstill.

    Now our wonderful governer wants to put a gas tax on us Minnesotans to pay for the bridge. I would rather have tax on cigarettes or alcohol. Not more on gas!!!!

  3. Vickles?

    Anyone hear anything?

    Who else is from that state?

    I'm here and yes I do live in the metro area. I heard it and thought it was thunder. It really is horrible.

    Dot, I'm pretty sure that Griz and Anna live in this area too.

  4. Wow, I don't come on here for ages because of my computer and the first thing I see is that Raf is getting married..... :dance:

    How exciting Raf. I'm sure all will go well. Have a happy married life and congrats!!!!

  5. I have never liked Alec Baldwin but I'm sure there is more to the story than what we know.

    And if we have only heard part of it there is sure another part of the story.

    Too bad the kid is caught in the middle. But usually if the kid is with one parent all the time and that parent is nasty about about the other parent then you can bet that the kid really acts up because she is being told things a kid should never be involved in.

    I went through it with my son when I was trying to get custody. When he came to visit one time I had to throw him out because of his behavior (and I was not nice). Of course it was used against me, but I could not tolerate his disrespect. Now he lives with me and with counseling he has had his eyes opened and realized I'm really not a bad person after all. He was told so many things about me that were so untrue!!!!!

    So, I can't except that its one sided here. It sounds like some things are being manipulated and he lost his temper.

  6. No biggy, bluzeman, we all followed that doctrine,

    Jesus forgave much worse.

    Hey Rick,

    I'm sorry that you were hurt and are still hurting. There are certain people that hurt me too. I'm sorry it was Dave that hurt you. I knew him before he did anything with twi except the PFAL. TWI changed a lot of us. I know I hurt a couple of people myself and it hurts now to think that I could do such things without feeling for the other person.

    Last year I got an e-mail from someone that I did not get along with. In fact that person at times treated me with great hatred. After all these years that person wrote a long letter to me with the best apology. It was very freeing. I hope and pray that if it isn't Dave that does the apologies that someone else that hurt will. I think the freeing part for me was to realize that this person had been hurt from others too. We were all thinking we were doing the 'best' for God. I know at times I did not see the whole picture.

    What I'm trying to say Rick is that I totally understand how you feel.... :cryhug_1_:

  7. Uh, yes.

    I wouldn't worry -- I think twi caught up with him. He's in his fifty's and starting over.

    I knew them way back when when the kids were very tiny. Lola was the sweetest person and Dave was very funny!!!!

    Too bad that twi changed them. That is so sad!!!

    And Dave would be more in his 60's by now. Early 60's anyways.

  8. i love craigslist

    I love craigslist also. I usually go to the free section and the pet section. I've gotten free fencing for my kennel, carpet, entertainment center. All in excellent shape.

    I also go to freecycle.org its pretty good too, depending on the area that you live. Freecycle I used to furnish my daughter's new place a couple of years ago. And I mean everything.....kitchen stuff, washer and dryer, furniture through out for a three bedroom....items too numerous to mention.

    I love the recycle stuff through craigslist and freecycle.

    I even found a store that has very nice clothing for $2.00 a bag and some times during the year the third bag was free.

    I love cheap stuff!!!!! I've gotten cheap in my old age for sure.... :redface2:

  9. Well if living in sin is what I'm doing I am doing rather well after the institution of marriage.

    Sounds good to say living in sin or call someone an adulterous :offtopic: (personal to the one that is knows what I talking about, sorry). I hate it when people judge.

    Anyways, If you have known each other and have talked about this for years you already know the answer to that so go for it and enjoy. I would rather be with a man living in sin than be married to someone that is abusive. I wonder which one is good in God's eyes?

    Keeping the finances separated is a good idea and eventually your monies will go together if the relationship is still working. This way if you guys realize that living together is not it and to be friends instead then nothing is lost.

  10. I remember who you are talking about dot. Wasn't the girl from the same area hung around with that him? I remember hanging out with I think the name is Hans or maybe jan and there was a girl. They both were so much fun. I don't think they were a couple at all just from the same area. We used to talk about how the women didn't shave....lol I"m sure there were other things we talked about though.

    I'm wondering if its the same guy. He had blond hair, very handsome, and a nice personality. I would really like to know if it was him too. Hard to believe that it would be but you never know I guess.

  11. Doug, sorry this is late....I wish you the best my friend. You are well loved by many friends as you know because you have a heart of gold. Thanks for being my friend!!!!!

    See? You are well liked around here...... :P :eusa_clap:

  12. Ok, who is Vickles????

    :biglaugh:

    Well, who the heck is JoeTheBarber?????? :confused:

    Most people knew me as Vickilynn in the 11th. Perhaps you may remember a person being called in front of the whole 9th and 11th for just going to my room and getting my money instead of working after days and days of a horrible hitchhiking. It was PL I was reamed by. I was hitchhiking with a married couple that were really good friends of JL and PL. The wife's name was Candy and the husband's name was Charlie. They were so angry that I was hitching with them. But, anyways I could go on and on. I could tell you lots of my experience of Corps. I'm so glad I didn't finish. When JL told me I had to leave because I was possessed I was so shocked.

    I asked him what devil spirits did I have? He said he wasn't sure it was something about my past. I'm not surprised of his problems since he was spineless then. The covers might change but whats on the inside doesn't.

    And you all keep forgetting about Dot Matrix. I shared a room with her for one of those times.

  13. We have to do it sometime. Can't believe I missed that.Damn. $1.50 Beer is my kind of night!

    I didn't graduate because I was one of the possessed ones. I'm not part of that club.
