New Years Resolutions

I may go to my sisters house if she has anything going on but other than that, no. I just hate the bar scene and if I drink, I really don't want to get behind the wheel of a car. So, I may just hang out here. How about you?

I'll check your answer later. It's Jerry's bed time. Sleep well tonight Dana.

Best of luck to all on their resolutions and best wishes for a Happy New Year.

RE: what work you do

I have been retired from the Air Force for 29 days. Starting a new career in Feb - Mar 09. Bored outta my tree right now..

RE: What is the rudest moment who have witnessed?

I agree, and I just don't get the evil that lurks in someoone who would tease them or humiliate them.very mad

RE: What is the rudest moment who have witnessed?

The rudest things I have ever seen are people who make fun of people who are mentally challenged.

When I was about 16, living in California, there was a guy named Johnny who walked through our neighborhood every evening during the summer playing a harmonica. He had Downs Syndrome and he was probably about 30 years old. He never talked, never bothered anyone but some of the younger crowd used to talk him into doing things (bad things) and they would laugh at him. Got into several fights over people messing with Johnny.

The other more vivid incident was when I was living in Virginia. There was a guy who wnet through our neighborhood that just wanted to stop, talk and bumb a coke from everyone he met. He was amazing as he could recite almost anything he ever read, kinda like rain man. Some of the people were very kind but there were a few who were just mean and ugly.

I have never understood the mentality of people who feel the need to be ugly towards people who are incapable of protecting themselves.

RE: Share something that someone you respected has passed onto you

My first boss once told me "You can learn just as much, if not more from a bad manager/supervisor/worker than you can learn from a good one" Some of my best lessons have come from watching other people screw up and making sure I didn't do the same things.

RE: why we look in net our half?

I'm rather new to the internet. Good you please provide a detailed, step-by-step chain of events regarding this issue. Please don't skip over any of the juicy parts as I am old enough to handle them. Also, please let me know how the guy screwed it up and got busted. I just want to figure out what I'm going to need to do once I get this blasted web cam up and running. laugh

RE: Need Help!!

Yeah, I think you made the right move. I did much the same after a similar loss and eventually picked those relationships back up. She probably just needs time to deal with it alone.

RE: If a man ask you to do something in bed and you refuse, but he keeps asking, do you

No means no, I have the scratches on my face to prove itlaugh

RE: CS has never listened to us yet.

Well I can only think of one dude that's not happy they let you out. laugh

RE: Just Wishing You The Best Christmas.....!!!

Merry Christmas Alison and have a Happy New Year

RE: CS has never listened to us yet.

Don't feel bad, I got banned once too and I didn't know why. That was a long time ago though during a cleaning the house type action they felt they had to take and there were some innocent people taken out.

I think those guys do the best they can. I will say that every obvious scammer that has contacted/solicited me have disappeared shortly after I've reported them.

RE: What, exactly is a "shout out"?

You know your stuff.

RE: New or old format ?

The bad always recognize each other... devil laugh

RE: What, exactly is a "shout out"?

It's slang and pretty much means a greeting for an individual or group. I believe it comes from the hip hop culture. At least that's what my son told me. grin

RE: New or old format ?

You're a bad man... laugh

RE: Words Of Wisdom Or Wounds?

Very nice and very true...

RE: would you snog the one above you

Yessssss. There no panting emoticon dammit.. laugh

RE: Illegal Immigrants Returning To Mexico For American Jobs

I don't understand the need for a dangerous trek. All they have to do is turn themselves in and they get a nice safe ride in an airconditioned car

RE: Life with a single woman or with many!!

Capone, Someone is leading you astray. I have enough difficulty keeping up with one at a time. laugh

Seriously, I have had relationships and I've never used the words "I love you" and not meant it with every part of my being. It's true the woman will change with age but then again, I'm no spring chicken myself.

RE: Season's Greetings - Peace to you all

Merry Christmas Veneresanta waving cold snowman

RE: Locking up

Come on Indy...devil I never could singlaugh

RE: Should we give christmas presents to inmates?

Yeah, I have the album. Johnny was and still is one of my favorites.

Let Me Tell You About My Weekend

I've always thought pretty well on my back. Maybe it's because me pappy always called me a screw up... sigh laugh

RE: Why does the Catholic Church put men in dunce hats and dresses?

Who knows, There are lots of questions one can ask. For instance;

Why do people use questions as poorly veiled insults to a certain people, religious groups, etc...?

Why do some people feel it necessary to prop up their own beliefs by attempting to insult other's beliefs?

Why do people try to demean an entire group based on wrongs done in the past by members of said group?

Why would someone ask for other's thoughts when they clearly have no interests in them?

Why did I just spend 60 seconds posting this?

Who the heck knows...

RE: Afghanistan could see 30,000 new US troops

Well, I'm no Obama fan but this is pretty much what he said he was going to do during the campaign.

As I see it, this should have been done in Afghanistan before we went after Iraq (Another story entirely). We simply can't bring in other assistance until such time as the Afghan government has secured the country. That wont happen with the manning currently in place. It's nothng more than a surge like the one done in Iraq. I suppose we're going to find out how it works pretty soon.

Let Me Tell You About My Weekend

An older, white haired man walked into a jewelry store one Friday evening with a beautiful young gal at his side.

He told the jeweler he was looking for a special ring for his girlfriend. The jeweler looked through his stock and brought out a $5,000 ring. The old man said, 'No; I'd like to see something more special.'

At that statement, the jeweler went to his special stock and brought another ring out. 'Here's a stunning ring at only $40,000' the jeweler said.

The young lady's eyes sparkled and her whole body trembled with excitement. The old man seeing this said, 'We'll take it.'

The jeweler asked how payment would be made and the old man stated, 'By check. I know you need to make sure my check is good, so I'll write it now and you can call the bank Monday to verify the funds. I'll pick the ring up Monday afternoon.'

Monday morning, the jeweler phoned the old man.
'There's no money in that account.'

'I know,' said the old man, 'But let me tell you about my weekend!'
