Thanks FOS,I have to admit I have been here on this site for a bit longer than 2 weeks.(2years)LOL. I sometimes post a little statement as such to see if peeps are actually reading what I post. My attempt at a bit of humor.The post that 2intrigued put up from the Mods, pretty much sums it up.If people do not like the OP or what he has posted and can't address it in a positive manor,then quite simply move onto a different thread that is more to their liking. We are all adults here and opinions and debate does not need to be protrayed in a negative manner.
One bright, beautiful Sunday morning, everyone in tiny Smithville wakes up early and goes to their local church. Before the service starts, the townspeople sit in their pews and talk about their lives, their families, etc.
Suddenly, at the altar, Satan appears!! Everyone starts screaming and running for the front entrance, trampling each other in their determined efforts to get away from Evil Incarnate.
Soon, everyone is evacuated from the church except for one man, who sit calmly in his pew, seemingly oblivious to the fact that God's ultimate enemy is in his presence. This confuses Satan a bit.
Satan walks up to the man and says, "Hey, don't you know who I am?"
The man says, "Yep, sure do."
Satan says, "Well, aren't you afraid of me?"
The man says, "Nope, sure ain't."
Satan, perturbed, says, "And why aren't you afraid of me?"
"Well, I've been married to your sister for 25 years."
Very good quotes,Ccincy. #3 sure rings true here.Being on this site a little longer than 2 weeks, I seen this happen more than once. Opinions and the ability to debate do make for interesting read on the forums. I think that often times people either put too much or not enough thought into their reply's on the various threads. When emotions enter into it then positive interaction is usually lost. It may be human nature to have to have the last say(not always) but when ever I see that on here, it is a thread killer for me. The ban feature certainly has it's time and place to be used on here. If the OP chooses to use it that does not necessarily make the poster a bad person. In all fairness it only means that the Op does not want to see the thread go in the direction that it might be starting to go. More often that not it gets taken too personally. JMO.
Teepee Official MarkBy far, Medicine Hat’s most visible landmark is the Saamis Tepee!
Originally constructed for the Calgary 1988 Winter Olympics, the Saamis Tepee is a tribute to Canada’s native heritage. Built entirely of steel with a concrete foundation, the tepee is ringed with 10 large circular story-boards depicting aspects of native culture and history. Below the Saamis Tepee in scenic Seven Persons coulee, lays one of the Northern Plains archaeological sites - the Saamis Archaeological Site. This self-guided walking tour will show you one of the foremost important archaeological sites of the Northern Plains. The area was once a buffalo camp and meat processing site. Experts believe over 83 million artifacts are buried at the site.
Wish you luck with a meet up on here. I think the biggest issue here is that too many people just simply live too far away.Our Canada is a big country and many can't commit.
Little Johnny walked into class every morning with a black eye.
After a number of times of this happening, the teacher became increasingly worried and asked him about it.
Johnny's answer was: "Our house is very small miss. Me, my mother and my father, we sleep on the same bed. Every night my father asks, 'Johnny are you sleeping?' Then I say 'No' and then he slaps my face and gives me a black eye."
So the teacher says to him, "Tonight when your father asks again, keep dead quiet and don't say a word".
The following morning Little Johnny comes to school and no black eye, so the teacher breathes a sigh of relief. The day after that, Johnny comes back with a massive shiner again.
"My goodness Johnny, another black eye? What happened?"
He turns to explain: "Miss, Dad asked me again, 'Johnny are you sleeping?.... and I shut up and kept dead still. Then my father and my mother started moving {you know} at the same time. Mom was breathing heavy and kicking her legs all over the place while squealing like a demented hyena on the bed".... Then my father asks me mum: 'Are you coming?' Then my mum says, 'Yes I'm coming, are you coming too?' and my dad answered 'Yes'.
*They don't usually go anywhere without me so i said 'Wait for me..."
