RE: Who owns their own business?

Owning a farm is one of the toughest businesses to be in pal. My hat's off to you.

I had a small farm, probably nothing like yours though only 21 acres. beef cows, pigs & chickens. Job transfer forced me to sell it along with all my equipment. I did good with pigs but cows are break even at best. I sold a 600lb sow for .63/lb when "1's" were bringing $.50 I'll tell you the secret if you're interested.

Anyway, back on topic.

I owned 2 gas stations and a racecar shop, I also built racecar trailers. That was how I got pretty good at welding and designing. One of my trailers was towed at 110 MPH without a hint of swaying by a customer going across Arizona one night. Yes he had a Formula Ford on it.
Today I am an independant trucker.

RE: Online Friends

FRIENDS WITHOUT FACES
(and some that do)

We sit and we type, and we stare at our screens
We all have to wonder, what this possibly means.

With our mouse we roam, through the rooms in a maze
Looking for something or someone, as we sit in a daze.

We chat with each other, we type all our woes
Small groups we do form, and gang up on our foes.

We wait for somebody, to type out our name
We want recognition, but it is always the same.

We give kisses and hugs, and sometimes flirt
In IMs we chat deeply, and reveal why we hurt.

We do form friendships - but - why we don't know
But some of these friendships, will flourish and grow.

Why is it on screen, we can be so bold
Telling our secrets, that have never been told.

Why is it we share, the thoughts in our mind
With those we can't see, as though we were blind.

The answer is simple, it is as clear as a bell.
We all have our problems, and need someone to tell.

We can't tell real people, but tell someone we must
So we turn to the 'puter, and to those we can trust.

Even though it is crazy, the truth still remains
They are Friends Without Faces, and odd little names.

RE: MEN, What moves do you like a woman to make if you like her?!

Nice image?

At 155 lbs I'm pretty easy to toss.

RE: MEN, What moves do you like a woman to make if you like her?!

I didn't say that I'm innocent. The other guy did it. It was temporary insanity. I was typing in my sleep. Mommy

RE: MEN, What moves do you like a woman to make if you like her?!

Oh bolux ...did I spell that right?

Just throw him on the couch, straddle him, and start gyrating on his lap. If that don't get a rise out of him, he's gay and not worth your time or effort.

RE: ladies lets have your votes for the best guy you like on here

Oh Joy! Just what we need.

RE: If you could become famous for one thing, what would that thing be?

I would like to finally disprove the "Big Bang" theory and go down in history for changing the direction of cosmology.

Failing that I would like to become famous for my spaghetti sauce.

RE: Ello! Tis is me....

Well folks, I hate to say it but I think this is a scam!

The 7 wonders of the world

I can't read this without my eyes beginning to tingle.

A group of students were asked to list what they thought were
the present Seven Wonders of the World. Though there was some
disagreement, the following got the most votes:
1. Egypt's Great Pyramids
2. Taj Mahal
3. Grand Canyon
4. Panama Canal
5. Empire State Building
6. St. Peter's Basilica
7. China's Great Wall
While gathering the votes, the teacher noted that one
quiet student hadn't turned in her paper yet. So she asked the girl
if she was having trouble with her list. The girl replied, "Yes,
a little. I couldn't quite make up my mind because there were so
many."
The teacher said, "Well, tell us what you have, and
maybe we can help."

The girl hesitated, then read, "I think the Seven
Wonders of the World are:
1. To touch
2. To taste
3. To see
4. To hear
She hesitated a little, and then added...
5. To feel
6. To laugh
7. And To love...
The room was so full of silence you could have heard a pin
drop.

RE: tell me your openion

I can't! That's why I used a round number, maybe it was 10,000 times

I find beautiful women to be awesome to look at and I never tire of it, but if I'm in a relationship with someone that's all I do, look but no touch!

RE: tell me your openion

It's far more accurate to call it:

LUST AT FIRST SIGHT

Been there 1,000 times!

RE: Ann Coulter for President.

Good points! I think the guy who will ignite the right will br Fred Thompson. He will most likely get the nod. He's a very likeable guy even though he has some heavy baggage. It may sound strange coming from a democrat but I almost wonder if having all 3 branches of gov controlled by the same party is a good idea. There needs to be checks & balances. I would vote for an independant if he/she had a good chance.

RE: Ello! Tis is me....

God, if I only had my youth! Would you believe she is 69 miles away from me?

RE: Ann Coulter for President.

You wont get the chance to vote for McCain unless he gets the nomination which will never happen. His unswerving support of W has killed any chance he ever had to inherit the white house.

RE: Would you ever consider dating a friend??

I can't even imagine a man cheating on you.

What more than you could any man ever want?

RE: Name that lyric

OK skimpy, obviously nobody can name that song so maybe you should post another one or pass it on before this thread dies an agonizing death.

RE: Second Chances

I doubt I'm the only one who wants to know what whoever did to you. Maybe if you share with us the gory details we can help you avoid it in the future......or not.

Actually I'm just a nosey parker! Bet you're surprised to hear a yank use that expression.

RE: Weather Report

Is that your own bajanblue?

RE: Chatroom!

I was an avid MSN chatroom junkie til they started charging. They don't even have it anymore if I remember correctly. Then I switched to Yahoo but that got totally taken over by bots and they eliminated the "user created" rooms due to p*dophile.
Yahoo is totally out of control. I doubt anybody from Yahoo is monitoring Yahoo chatrooms at all these days. It's been my observation that people in MSN chatrooms were a higher class of people than in Yahoo chatrooms.

I met and became very good friends with many women in chatrooms.

RE: A picture paints words

Maybe they really look like that. Maybe that really IS a photo and they had some horrible medical condition which ate their whole face and all that's left is the outline. I bet nobody ever thought of that huh!

RE: Weather where you are?

Sheesh, get a room you two!

RE: Weather where you are?

At 9:43 AM it's 70 F 22 C right now. Sun is shining blue sky, not a cloud to be seen. The crows are winging overhead from tree to tree and upsetting my chickens. I expect to see my stunt plane doing loops and rolls later today, the weather is perfect for it.

RE: Why am I having a hard time?

I've been following you Paddy

RE: Election of 08

Go back and re-read my post. I said Bill Richardson falls short not the clintons.

RE: Election of 08

I agree, a governor has the most relevant experience to be president, but Bill Richardson vs Bill & Hillary falls short in some important areas like foreign policy and familiarity with foreign leaders.

I think the image of the US will take a giant leap forward when Bush is finally gone. Whoever is elected!

RE: What is Love?

"How little we know
How much to discover
What chemical forces flow
From lover to lover"
How little we understand – what touches off that tingle
That sudden explosion – when two tingles intermingle
Who cares to define
What chemistry this is
Who cares with your lips on mine
How ignorant bliss is
So long as you kiss me – (and) the world around us shatters
How little it matters – how little we know"

RE: Life's a Beach...

HATED IT!


But I laughed anyway

RE: What do you dislike the most about women?

The thing I dislike about women is how they are so subtle in the signals they give out that you almost have to be another woman to pick up on it. Then if you don't respond in exactly the right way they get all moody and emotional.

Sometimes they actually say the exact opposite to what they really mean like "I don't want to get married" but if you don't keep proposing to them they think you don't love them.

The language called "Man" is very simple and easy to learn. The language called "Woman" is extremely complex and almost impossible for men with only the left hemisphere to master.

RE: would you relocate a long distance for love?

Not so fast! Crazyice has options she hasn't explored yet. Besides, the US has some damn good "blokes" too
